I gotta admit...

I'm not a fan of Jessica Alba's movies but she sure seems to be one of the nicest, ahem, actors around. In interviews she's great, and now in her lawsuit against Hugh Hefner she's made sure that he pays all damages into selected charities.

...i just wish she were a better actress.

And, also - good for Wal-mart!

Wal-Mart Hit by 'Brokeback' Protest

Wal-Mart has turned aside a massive letter-writing campaign by the American Family Association urging the retailer to refuse to stock Brokeback Mountain, being distributed by Universal Home Entertainment. The group, which has successfully campaigned against what it considers to be broadcast indecency launched the campaign last week after ads for the film began being displayed prominently in the retailer's 3,900 stores. In an interview with today's (Tuesday) Los Angeles Times, the AFA's Randy Sharp, accused Wal-Mart of helping to push the "gay agenda" by "trying to help normalize homosexuality in society." He added, "But how many copies are they going to have to sell to [recoup] the losses of customers who they've offended and will no longer shop at Wal-Mart?" But a Wal-Mart spokeswoman replied, "The fact that we are offering the movie is not an endorsement of the content of the movie or any specific belief. ...We simply offer the latest titles that consumers want."


Seriously, it's a movie. A popular one that people are going to want to buy. It makes perfect sense for them to stock it. It's not like they're parading around movies like Trick or whatever. Stupid family groups. They're the worst possible people in the world. Stick to popping out babies and leave the rest of us alone you dickhead morons.
