Have all our movie options been purged!

Oh the one-liners that could be thought up right now for Planes: Fire & Rescue.  Out of respect for the Dutch, "Wij houden van Oranje" (that's for my brother-in-law), I will refrain.  That and orange is a pretty cool color, ahem Bears, Illini, the flying Dutchmen, Baltimore (wha...). Speaking of fast dudes and chicks on skates.  Did anybody see the Olympics this past winter?  If you watched any speed (not figure, boh-RING) skating then you saw people in orange suits dominating.  Like the only people standing on the podium dominating.  Like you didn't get a medal because all your country-men took them dominating.   Like if this was scored like a track meet, your team put up massive amounts of points and everybody else scrounged for scrapes dominating.  Kind of like Colleen in this league until last week ...  Well maybe if she was cloned like twice ... She ruled the top 3 spots for longer than a month and a half ... Orrr I guess you could say that Faith is dominating the last spot.  Nobody is even close!

I digress.  As you can see the movies that came out last week had little or no impact on the league.  This week looks to be the same.  For those of you who are pinning your hopes on Hercules, the bet still stands.  Well for that matter, anybody else can jump in.  We are all really just waiting for Guardians and Turtles to see how the league will play out.  The question remains, who is better Apes or Turtles?  Will Jeff take home his second straight summer title?  Can Colleen make a comeback in August? Will Faith continue to dominate last place all season?  Will the Dutch find a way to play soccer on skates, without popping the ball?  Stay tuned, this fight is about to get heavy!!!

A Most Wanted Man comes up which looks really good.  Sadly it will be one of Phillip Seymour Hoffman's last movies.  Also coming out is The Fluffy Movie.  After watching him a few times on Comedy Central, he has some comedic chops.  Not really sure what else there is to say other than John needs about ... oh ... 8 alternates.  Maybe the Dutch can loan you some!
