Hot on the heels of my Netflix post, I just finished watching Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and noticed that Michelle Monaghan was in Gone Baby Gone as Angie Gennaro, but her KKBB character was in a commercial for Genaro's Beer.
I am too bored.

Netflix
On Recommendations: They recommended Kangaroo Jack to me because I liked Ratatouille and Kung Fu Panda. To their defense they also recommended Ice Age, which I actually did like. Why don't they consider the number of stars as well? Maybe there just aren't enough >= (4 - \epsilon) starred movies to go around (Kangaroo Jack had 3 + \epsilon, so maybe it's not that bad). I wonder when they will incorporate improvements from the Netflix competitions.
On old movies / tv shows: Do they make more money off of folks who rent old movies? Old movies are already shown for free on public TV, basic cable, and even online. Oh well, I should rent a movie based on its utility to me, not them, anyway. On a related note, I recently enjoyed the train station scene from The Untouchables (too young when it was first released).
It's much better to let y'all see that scene in context than to post the isolated youtube clip.
