And while you’re there, come say hi to CitizenBot and buy me some movie candy. Because as you’ll be able to see from my awesome fatness, I neither need more candy nor should I be seeing a movie sure to be full of foodporn like “Chef.”
Regardless, I’m super excited to see what the former “Dinner for Five” host and “Iron Man” director has served up for us. Supposedly, this film was the response to how Favs felt after some disappointment from “Iron Man 2” and wanting to rediscover his own voice and roots by going back to basics, even if it meant walking away from the big tentpole franchise. Word was very positive coming out of SXSW, but we shall see, and I’ll have a full review for you later this week.
Hey look– more details about the film!
