Random Thoughts on Knocked Up

I can't believe they left this scene out! By far the funniest moment in the film (if it were in the film).

The Cirque du Soliel on Mushrooms scene was one of the more accurate representations of what people on psychedelics actually act like. Seth Rogen going "Whaaaaaaat's heeeeee doooooooiiiiiiin'?"--funny stuff. Let me also say that, if they ate all the mushrooms that were in that bag, that's a LOT of fuckin' mushrooms for two people to eat, especially if they're then going out in public.

The Steeley Dan argument rang very true to me. Something about that band that's so divisive among music geeks. Some people really see them as a great, cool band that combines jazz musicianship with pop songwriting skills without becoming too prog, and others see them as lame, watered-down boomer rock, and neither side can believe it when they hear the other interpretation. (I guess I fall in the latter category--I don't hate them like Yes or Boston, but I sorta passively like them without ever thinking about it, like The Doobies, Eagles, or Elton John.)
