Oh gawd - because we desperately need more movies like Freshman Orientation (of Home of Phobia - whichever is the real title). Where are all the movies entailing the adventure of girls pretending to be lesbians in order to get the guys they love?

It's a rhetorical question.

I love that Nines poster too - and I fervently hope that it doesn't turn out to be yet another case of an excellent poster/hype outshining the content.

Hey Nathan, this may be off topic, but have you thought about Chris Cooper's performance in Breach for maybe best supporting actor? He received rave reviews for his work, but was the movie release too early?
