Film / Ethics A Serious Mercury Conundrum Re: Adam Sandler's Latest Film
Posted by Erik Henriksen on Fri, Jun 15, 2012 at 1:58 PM
Ned Lannamann and I just had a surprisingly nuanced conversation about whether we should put one of those "we recommend it" stars next to his review of Adam Sandler's new film, That's My Boy. That's My Boy costars Andy Samberg and Vanilla Ice.
For those of you curious about what it's like to be a working professional in the hyper-competitive newspaper industry, here's a rare glimpse—a small excerpt from the aforementioned conversation. I am the pug wearing 3D glasses. Ned is the kitty wearing a sombrero.
That reminds me, I have to check my mail, I'm expecting a very important package today.
P.S. Ned would also like me to inform you that he reviewed "an artsy fartsy Czech film series" this week; he also pointed out that he's got "range."
