Yes, I almost had a chance to go, as the New York screening had special seats for Myspace members who wanted to see it. There was a chance to see the film and meet selected cast members. Unfortunately, I was on holiday at the time. If I hadn't have been I would have been there! Rolling Eyes

Thanks for those pictures! I saw a trailer on the TV the other day, but I can't remember when it comes on here. In the UK I think it's already showing. Looks like I'll just have to wait a while...

I saw The Wackness last night at the cinema! It's a great film, and funny too! Kingsley and Peck were really great together, and I bet they had a real laugh making it in parts. I really can't understand why Mary Kate Olsen has had so much publicity over it though, because she's in the film for like, 10 minutes at the most... Suspect

I liked this one too. A few years ago, I never would have thought of watching a story like this one, but I was at the cinema and I didn't know what to watch, so I just thought I'd see what it was like. Well worth watching!
