Watch the first one and then decide if it meets your expectations. I would say the first film is one of the better "buddy" movies out there today. It is sweet without being cloying, funny without pushing too far, and thoughtful without beating you over the head with a message. That can't be said about the sequel.

The second film, for me, was a minor disaster, but I plugged through it. While many saw the plot as a tirade against the Bush administration, I saw it as a jab against government incompetence as a whole. And Bush even comes out looking good at the end of the movie. The gags were similar, but it didn't have the quirkiness I expected and loved from the original.

I haven't seen the third installment. I think I will save it until Christmas rolls around next year.

I missed the mud shark, no brown M&M, groupies, and excess of the 70's bands by a few years... (my first real concert was in 1980), but it sounds like this is something different coming to the screen instead of the mindless pulp Hollywood regurgitates on a weekly basis that I might enjoy.

I can't stand the man's policitcs, and those views have glared brightly in his books over the last 20 years, but more power to Mr. King for all his charity work. He is well known in Maine as very generous with his money. He is responsible for funding new ball fields and libraries, as well as selling the rights to his stories to be made by not-for-profit film makers/students for one dollar, and The Haven Foundation, just to name a few.

For this story alone, I'll back off from any snide comment about how much it cost to heat his winter home in Florida.

Swan Song is a brilliant book. And McCammon is one hell of a writer. It's been fun watching him progress over the years in King's shadow. While not as prolific as King, he definitely holds his own in the horror/suspense genre.

The Wind Through the Keyhole is the next DT story out. Grant Books, the publisher of all the DT books, pegs it for a February '12 release.

/Me: of the opinion (with the exception of DT and its related stories) King hasn't written anything worthwhile in long form over the last 20 years.

"We had an episode that went all the way to the script phase in which Stewie does come out," MacFarlane, the show's creator, says in the September issue of Playboy magazine. "It had to do with the harassment he took from other kids at school. He ends up going back in time to prevent a passage in Leviticus from being written: 'Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind. It is an abomination.'

"But we decided it's better to keep it vague, which makes more sense because he's a 1-year-old. Ultimately, Stewie will be gay or a very unhappy repressed heterosexual.

So he says at 3:30 that the Stewart joke was over the line, but has never said anything similar when he equated Palin and McLame having Nazis as supporters?

/Stopped watching Family Guy years ago when Stewie went from wannabe world dictator to wannabe dic-...sucker, and Brian went from being the voice of reason to a liberal pansy.
