With the reappearance of the movie list to the left, some of you have asked, why haven't you seen so-and-so movie? Officially, it's because I'm studying. Really, I'm just lazy. But like September, October has seen its share of uninteresting movies. Knockaround Guys? Swept Away? That talking vegetables movie? The Man From Elysian Fields? Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever? (I know, this came out in September, but really, it's never gonna get any good in any month.)

But the award for best ad for a movie I won't see goes to Wasabi. No, it's not about eating sushi. It has Jean Reno, the professional from The Professional, or Leon, as hardcore fans know it.

The ad writes that Wasabi is "quite possibly, the greatest French-language, English-subtitled, Japanese action-comedy of all-time."

So if you can even name another French-language, English-subtitled, Japanese action-comedy, you really must ask yourself, is it better than Wasabi?
