Mallrats

I know some who believe Mallrats is Kevin Smith‘s best film. I don’t. Although I think you can enjoy the slacker young adult comedy for what it is, Mallrats hasn’t aged all that well. The film stars Jeremy London and Jason Lee as best friends hanging out at the mall attempting to win back their girlfriends, one of whom (Shannen Doherty) is now dating Ben Affleck and another who (Claire Forlani) is a contestant on a dating game show taking place that night in the mall.

Filling out the cast with an assortment of odd characters the likes of slacker drug dealers Jay (Jason Mewes) and Silent Bob (Smith) as well as Stan Lee (playing himself), Michael Rooker (as the overprotective father of Forlani’s character who ropes her into performing on the dating show causing the break-up), Priscilla Barnes (as a low-rent psychic), and Renée Humphrey (as a sexually experienced minor whose sexual adventures play a major role in the final sequence of events).

The Crazy Ones - Love Sucks

Featuring an appearance from Robin Williams‘ old Mork & Mindy co-star Pam Dawber as Simon‘s new love interest, the latest episode of The Crazy Ones deals with the highs and lows as love as Simon also tries to help Gordon (Brad Garrett) who is despondent after his husband abandons him for not being spontaneous and too stuck in his anti-social ways. It all ends it wacky (and somewhat unfortunate) karaoke sequence that’s better of forgotten for Gordon and Simon getting a door slammed in his face (despite the attempted assistance of David Copperfield).
