"Yes, funny. I think I laughed harder than Talladega Nights. John Heder at his Napoleon Dynamite best and Will Farrell just dynamite. The comic premise is as old as comedy writing: get people who hate each other and force them to live together. What is so smart about Blades of Glory is what they come up with to make Heder and Farrell interact. They're banned from competing in men's singles BUT there is no rule to keep two men from competing in pairs skating.
And, yes, Susan laughs very loudly at movies (which troubles me at serious critics' screenings -- we don't want the other critics to know if a movie is funny or not; we're a bit competitive that way) and this time it was OK because it was a wide-open screening, lots of civilians, and I don't think I've heard her laugh harder than she did at the Iron Lotus routine. By the way did you know the Hollywood gossip on Farrell is that......he's the nicest guy in the world? And I am much older than Susan. Who was born on February 29th."
