5. I keep mixing that date up for some reason.

Reviews
Dave C reviewed 'Sharktopus' as 'another CGI fanfest' [Trey stated 'I am
Sharktopus']
Adrienne reviewed the US version of 'Being Human' as she isn't sure what to
make
of it and misses the British accents; Mo follow-on'd that she saw the episode,
enjoyed it and has hopes; then Adrienne reviewed 'Little Fockers' as 'not as
funny as the other 2' - worth matinee or Netflix
Mo reviewed 'The Green Hornet' as a fun movie & if you go in without
expectations you will be entertained
Chris reviewed the Razzie nominations as he's upsets since they nominated
'Eclipse' and 'Vampires Suck' – but that 'Sex & the City 2' deserved it – so
maybe they got it right
Andy reviewed the Fancy Food Show in SF as full of good foods and oddly
exploding snacks & the absolute best stuff was what prosciutto wants to be when
it grows up - jamon iberico de belotta – and 'I didn't even talk about the
chocolate and I'm not going to'
We adjourned at = 9:28 pm
The rumor of the week was: 'I am Sharktopus'
