As for the cast, it's not that bad....
Ben Affleck
Liv Tyler
George Carlin
Jason Biggs
Matt Damon
Jason Lee
"...the talented Kevin Smith".
That is an understatement, my friend. With the exception of "Dogma", everything the man has done has been golden. Especially "Clerks". "I'm not even supposed to be here today!!!"
As far as the cast goes, to me there's only one standout name on that list, and that would be.......Jason Lee. As far as I'm concerned, the man steals just about every scene he's in, in every movie he does. George Carlin is a legend, and I love him, but I have a feeling he won't be a "main player". Also, isn't Jennifer Lopez gonna' be in this movie??

I'm pretty sure that she's the "Jersey girl", and being somewhat of a "Jersey guy" myself, I do NOT appreciate that. She's from the Bronx, dammit, don't taint Jersey's image!! Anyways, it'll be pretty funny seeing this, knowing that "Bennifer" is no more. Unless my sister's right and the whole break-up is a plot for them to get some privacy so they can finally get married. Who the hell cares, she's a skank and we all know it.
Given the right director, and the right film, I think Affleck's okay. He usually does pretty well in Kevin Smith movies, and those are usually the roles where I like him the most. Matt Damon has grown on me a lot lately, cause I really liked "The Bourne Identity", and I like the fact that he's started to show his comedic side, given his appearance as a host on SNL and his roles in "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" and "Stuck on You". Liv Tyler is alright, but she doesn't really "do anything for me", if you know what I mean. The only movie I ever really liked her in was "Empire Records", and even there she was a little bit annoying. It would be funny is she showed up in this movie speaking the same language as her "Lord of the Rings" character.
I need to see a few trailers or previews for this movie before I decide whether or not I'll go see it in the theater....yes, THE one and only theater, but as of right now I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt.
