Cal lost in the NCAA tourney. What a surprise...

Channel-surfing earlier today when I noticed AMC (the TV channel) was blurring the line between classics and downright bad movies again. See, AMC stood for American Movie Classics. Nowadays though, they've augmented their film library to include newer movies, but the selection seems to be quite slim. Speed is suddenly a classic. Keanu's followup Chain Reaction is also featured. Slapshot 2? Didn't even know they made a sequel. There's also an endless supply of Charles Bronson movies. Plus Volcano. But today...wow. In my opinion, the best Jean Claude Van Damme movie was being shown, but even that isn't saying much. Yes, Bloodsport was on, with Van Damme's trademark smugness and all.

SNL has really hit its mark with its digital shorts. Damn shame the rest of the show is just awful. Two highlights at NBC's site (since they won't allow any other site to show the clips)
