pegg didn't write 'big train', i don't think. 'spaced' was epic tho, wtf. (guess i haven't seen it in a long-ass time tho.) it surprises me how much i like this stuff, because im not a sci-fi/comix/______ person and don't identify much with rogen's character(s). i only saw it two weeks ago but now cannot remember a damned thing worth remembering about 'green hornet'.

I know he didn't write it but I thought his acting (along with Mark Heap) was what really made the show.
I saw Green Hornet too...that and Superbad were what really kind of put Rogan into obnoxious territory for me; he's definitely funny but he doesn't really work as a leading man IMO which is something Pegg is totally fine with.

love F&G but Rogen deserves way less credit for that show than Pegg deserves for his best projects

she is no longer in movies. what was the deal w/ the girl w/ the had who ~loved~ him? kindof thought the rogen was looking fine in this movie even tho he was supposed to look shit i guess o well. it was darker and meaner than i expected and i liked that.

i saw burke and hare, which was p terrible - incredibly old-fashioned, lots of bad 'comic' performances from ppl like bill bailey and ronnie corbett, the two leads struggling v. hard to make their characters likeable cheeky chappies who are forced by circumstance to indulge in a bit of murder and grave-robbin'. written by the same guys who wrote the modern st trinians movies, so...

as it goes i think pegg is probably an irl tool, but he was funny at one point. rogen seems chill but that could be the hollywood PR system working its evil magic.

the rogen ws factor is probably leaning me further in his direction than i otherwise might but pegg is dreadful and that lose friends movie seems a good encapsulation of all that is terrible and objectionable about his personality/cosmic essence

Extreme-Accounting (or E-A) is an extreme sport in a similar vein to Extreme Ironing, in which people in accountancy-related roles take a calculator, laptop, Attaché case, PDA etc. with them into a remote location or action-sports situation and do some “book-keeping” work.
Extreme-Accounting claims to be the natural evolution of centuries of Proto-E-As – from bean counters in the earliest civilizations through the medieval codifiers of accountancy practice and a variety of latter day adventurers and pioneers. A selection of these are thoughtfully highlighted on the Extreme-Accounting website in a section describing itself as the movement’s “Dubious Past”.
