I’d like to imagine that 10 years from now, The Bounty Hunter, starring Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler, would make perfect MST3K fodder. It is sad that today’s major release is this movie, which has garnered a whooping 8% on the Tomato-meter, running neck and neck with Airbender as one of the worst reviewed films of the year. I generally don’t like romantic comedies, and I’m especially tired of Jennifer Aniston making all these movies with her shitty boyfriends-at-the-moment. The only girlfriend role she was good at was in Office Space. I’ll give her a nice pass for that movie. Plus, Gerard Butler hasn’t been in a good movie since 300, and I’d even argue that 300 isn’t very good either. So instead of celebrating the release of The Bounty Hunter, why not switch gears to the fan favorite Mystery Science Theater Vol. XVIII, which also releases today.

Back in junior high when I discovered MST3K I loved it. I have fallen out of it and haven’t watched anything from those guys in probably almost 15 years. I’m sure I’d get my jollies out of it if I watched something from them these days, but thanks to the internet, YouTube and DVD commentaries, my desire to watch three people sit around trashing a movie has lowered. Plus, I think I’m old enough and somewhat clever enough that I have fun doing that on my own, hence watching “films” like Dragon Ball Evolution and The Legend of Chun Li. Still, I understand MST3K’s loyal cult following, so the release of Vol XXXVIIIVIII is welcomed.

That said, my money this week is on the BD release of Insomnia. I have never actually seen Insomnia, but it seems like Chris Nolan’s camp is hoping that one of his earlier and least well known films will receive some late attention as they have butted the release next to Inception, which opens Friday. As a result, I will totally be adding this to my NetFlix queue.
