Funny things

Monday night was the first night of "The Colbert Report" with Stephen Colbert of "The Daily Show" on Comedy Central. The show is basically a spoof of all the know-it-all pundits out there. The premiere was fantastically funny, especially when he had the "gravitas" competition with Stone Phillips. The second night wasn't as great but still good, and I'll be interested to see if he can keep the momentum and comedy up, but so far, I'm looking forward to it.

If you want to know just how important a trailer can be to the image of a movie, check this out. It's a recut trailer for "The Shining" made as if the movie were a feel-good father-son bonding flick.
