    Well, when a movement is dependent on perpetually stoned artists and audience members, things are bound to be a bit rocky. As in: Everyone loved Arrested Development but apparently couldn't be bothered to actually watch it every week. #jaredhess

    First, was it really a surprise that Conchords got cancelled? I mean, at the end of the season they were back in New Zealand. I thought they had decided to stop THEN.

    Second, did you see Nacho Libre? It wasn't exactly the best use of Jack Black that I've ever seen or anything.

    True, the trailers look pretty funny for this movie, but they also look pretty insane as well. Maybe if Napoleon Dynamite (a movie that only got a national release after huge showings at limited releases) would have been followed up by a killer movie then the Hess's could have a national release granted, but it wasn't a great follow-up in Nacho Libre. I can see why dismal showings in NY and LA lead to a cancel of national release.

    Oh and one more thing...hell with you sir, I don't live in NY or LA, I live in MO, and have lived in TX and IL, we know what quirk is, but we also understand that a movie studio isn't going to fork over the huge amount of money it takes to roll out a nationwide release of a movie that is showing very little promise in the areas where it should do the best. #jaredhess

    @Justinpaulson: I'm not listening to you. You are crazy.

    Nacho libre was hilarious.

    i mean come on. "I was wondering if you would like to join me in my quarters this night... for some toast." #jaredhess

    Actually I've considered Ebert cool for a while now. His "Answer Man" column is a highlight of my week.

    @Airvault: Me too me too! He is adorable and awesome in an elbow-patch, LL Bean, professorial way.

    Also, please do not group in hoodie-wearers with hipsters. Hipsters are self-serious assholes who take dumps on silver spoons and generally believe that theirs is the only true punk movement to have existed for the last twenty years.

    Hoodie-wearers are smart, well-educated, self-deprecating people who like other thoughtful, funny people--and as it so happens, a lot of the best humor on TV and in movies during our prime years has come from people who fit that mold. The internet has thickened the fingerprint of our culture, and we communicate using a pool of common references. And yes, a lot of it is Arrested Development and Flight of the Conchords. But if you can't see the funny in either of those, you need therapy, because you probably have hedonophobia. #jaredhess

    This post was one big, breathless nothing. Maybe your hood strings are pulled too tight around your neck and your bangs are getting in the way of you seeing. #jaredhess

    @sweetpickles: Agreed. Maybe it's not so much about Hoodie Nation and more that Jared Hess isn't as talented as we all thought walking out of Napoleon Dynamite. #jaredhess

    I want to believe in Gentleman Broncos. I really, really do. But the reviewers would have me believe that my $12.50 could be better spent. My loyalties, they are torn. And yet... Jemaine. I might just have to. #gentlemanbroncos

    Here's the thing. I don't care who gets shot. So I'll probably see the Boondock Saints 2: Boondock Boogaloo. #gentlemanbroncos

    You can bet your sweet hiney I will see a movie that has Sam Rockwell in 80's Bowie garb shooting rockets by punching a reindeer. #gentlemanbroncos
