...kind of like Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants if the pants were a miniskirt worn without undergarments.") Or they're like Berge Garabedian, 33, of Montreal, who put his M.B.A. toward founding JoBlo.com after critics trashed Armageddon, a movie he and all of his friends loved. They're guys who love--obsessively--certain types of movies. "There are a lot more people who identify with me, a film fan, than a film expert," says Campea. "I'm the guy who stands at the watercooler with everybody." The watercooler is getting crowded. Now Campea has so much traffic on his site...
...good to see Anthony Hopkins being that terrifying, omniscient bad guy again. He murders his wife, who's cheating with a police officer, who comes unawares to the crime scene and compromises everything. And Ryan Gosling has fun as the scrappy, cocky A.D.A. who goes after him.

Also a Harvard guy--his Ph.D. is in public policy--Doblin founded the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) in 1986 to help scientists get funding and approval to study the drugs. (Doblin, 53, says he was too shy for the '60s, but he was inspired by the work of psychologist Stanislav Grof...
...Rudd is usually the smartest guy in the room. In interviews he often talks down to his host and listeners. One of his tics, and there are numerous variations, is to preface part of an answer with a question: "You know why?" When challenged with serious probing, he appears affronted. Asked about federalism by ABC-TV's Kerry O'Brien, he wielded the word "actually" like a stick. "Well, actually, that's not the approach I've got at all, Kerry. I've just got a healthy regard for what state governments actually do. I used to work...
