For the love of god and all that is holy, please please please finally lie to rest the Freaky Friday plotline once and for all. Sweet lord, this latest one you guys couldn't even at least change the name of the damned thing.
Thank you.
Love,
Amerifolklegend, Judge Reinehold, Kirk Cameron, Jodie Foster, Fred Savage, and the former Dudley Moore.

Dear Cameron Crowe,
You're a good director. Singles is very underrated, Almost Famous is great and people seem to like Say Anything. I even enjoyed Vanilla Sky. One thing that's always struck me about your films is how well-casted they are. From Cusack to Mohr to eeking a incredible performance out of Kate Hudson, you've displayed a gift for knowing how actors fit a role.
So why is it I'm hearing that you've casted the no-talent flavor-of-the-month man-whore Ashton Kutcher in your latest flick? Why?
Sincerely,
TheWakeUpBomb
P.S. Is this because you can't do the Spector biopic with Tom Cruise because Spector decided to go all Fatty Arbuckle on you?

NOW WHY THE HELL DO YOU KEEP GIVING TOM BERENGER ACTING ROLES?!?
Sure some of these movies were alright, even a couple were actually good. But god knows they would have been a thousand times better had Tom Berenger not been in there.
Rule of thumb: If you're starting production on a movie and Tom Berenger wins a role in that movie, then your movie sucks balls. Just drop the whole project. Think of him as a message from god.
You're welcome.
Hugs and kisses,
Amerifolklegend

It is truly the end times when Freaky Friday is remade. Agree on your sentiments, err hatred.
Berenger was alright in Shattered, but I acknowledge Greta Sacchi made the movie and he was very good in Platoon. Otherwise I agree he is kind of lame. Not much acting talent. He's not in the Freaky Friday remake is he?

Major League is one of my fave movies. Indians fan here. I thought he played Jake Taylor quite well and he had chemistry with Rene Russo. I'd like to hear your suggestion for who should've played the role though.

A bag of sand would have been better.

i'm assuming you mean Duran Duran. I'm not going to the Roxy show in L.A. on Tuesday (cuz I have a gig myself), but I'm going to the Costa Mesa show in Orange County the next night...I've had my ticket since the day they went on sale. about the 25th row or so.

Who on earth could I possibly be asking you about seeing besides Duran Duran? :D

Yeah, I knew you were going to the Wednesday show, but didn't know if you had an inside on those 400 or so remaining tickets that will be released to the general public.
