...with Billy Bob Thornton was, Angelina yakking about how she loved self-mutilation, Angelina making out with her brother. But her reign as It Girl ended and Hollywood scurried to find a new subject for ink when she went to film Tomb Raider in London and disappeared from public view...

And Mike did manage to sneak in some sequences that could even be considered-gasp-tasteful. In "Rejected," you view animated commercials made for the Family Learning Channel that, for obvious reasons, were turned down: "The Ghost of Stephen Foster" displays crisp animation (with Squirrel Nut Zippers music) pleasantly reminiscent of the 1930s, and Pixar's "For the Birds" shows off computer animation at its best...
