I thought that was Tatyana Ali, too SmartyPants. I think she was also in the baby making one a few weeks back, but at that time I really wasn't sure.

I thought the reason the globe was sent to them was pretty clear from the beginning of the film. A guy spills coffee on the label of the package and then smears it when he tries to wipe it off. The package then went to the wrong address due to the smeared unreadable label.

I never thought about the implication of the globe being smashed!

The guy who was killed in Zack's film, was ALSO in his office film (being killed again), and he was in a Seinfeld episode. He was in the one where George is given an assignment with the Yankees, and didn't listen, and the boss tells him to go to "payroll" and then he goes to payroll, and that actor is the payroll clerk. He whines something like "Whaaaat! You already got the go ahead to be down here, why d'you gotta rub it innnnn?!" when George asks him "And did he tell you why I need to be down here on this important assignment?"


I liked the spaghetti western one. I think it fulfilled the "two worlds collide" assignment the best. Plus it was cute and enjoyable.

Did you notice her complexion changed from natural skin tone to 'green' as green with envy.

..again did you notice the guy who was packing the crate had a look of revenge and spite about him? and was very nervous?

I would pick Sweet as #1 followed by zero2sixty and The Losers. Heck, they're all good at this point but someone has to go home.

The skateboarding thing ("Losers") was the poorest of the five. Next weakest was "Catch" (Mateen sure has a thing for law enforcement themes).

"Key Witness" was better than "Losers" and "Catch" while it was hard to pick between "Sweet" and "Zero to Sixty" -- I ultimately voted for "ZTS" because of how charming the lead actor who played the car salesman was (even while he shrieked his way through the chase scenes). I also finally remembered where I'd seen him before. "Oz" fans will recall he was on several episodes as one of Schillinger's neo-Nazi-in-training teenage sons.

Return of Chip. LOL He must be on contract for the show. I haven't noticed other actors being used that often but perhaps its because I am more familiar with him. He was in OZ? I haven't seen that show but I just bought hubby season one on DVD so will check it out.

Oh, Rissa, your husband is in for a treat, albeit an INTENSELY VIOLENT treat.

Be prepared: "Oz" is an extremely entertaining (and, at times, hysterically funny) show -- one of the very best ever offered by HBO -- but its boiling-point level of violence cannot be underscored enough.

Schillinger is one of the main (uber-sinister) characters. Fred Koehler played his son, Andrew, during season three.

Ya Ricky, I won't be anywhere near the TV while he is watching. LOL But hubby is in Sopranos withdrawal and OZ seems right up his alley.

The best films were Unplugged by Will, Old Home Boys by Jason & Bonus Feature by Zach. Wish they were longer than 3 minutes. The judges should let them redo a previous film using the advice they gave. And then we can compare both films.

I thought they all did a good job tonight. I know the judges didn't like it, but I was cracking up at the stamp thing. American Hoe that is classic!

I hated the Old Home Boys one!!! I didn't like Zach's either. I did like the stamps one, and Will's lamp one.

Unplugged was my favorite, but I thought a couple of others were kinda cute.

If American Hoe had ended as the guest judge suggested, with a "Hold that tee time, it worked and I'm on my way!" line, it would have been great, IMO. It's funny how one little thing like that changes the entire tone of the piece.

Otherwise, I liked Unplugged, but I'm afraid he's becoming a bit one note with the no talking bit. I didn't care much for Zach's, loathed Old Home boys, saw the tag for the "hot girl" one coming a mile away, and can't remember the sixth one.

I didn't hate any of them, but Home boyz was my least favorite.

I actually thought that the stamp one ended that way. The director said he left it ambigious. I guess it is how you read it. I thought the minute he smiled that cheesy smile I laughed at it being a set up.

I guess I liked the lamp one best. I wasn't overwhelmed with any of them. I enjoyed the fight between the superheroes.

I agreed that the wife calling the husband an "idiot" jarred me a bit. It was a funny concept but very poorly executed and the wife was way too harsh. If the two had been laughing while they fought (which can happen!) it would have been much funnier.

Notice it's only white male directors left? Not that I'm complaining - all the females they chose were terrible directors. They should have tried harder to find talented females.

I have a feeling Zach is in trouble this week.
Jason is getting better every week, I love his accent and can listen to him speak all day.

I thought the cheesy smile was a giveaway, too. Guess the judges aren't into subtle.

The lamp one was really good, but the Boyz thing was silly. He should have made the "girls" less blatantly masculine.

I agree Trini - Zach is in trouble. Doesn't help that his Canadian fan base can't vote, whereas his American counterparts can add on their hometown votes.

If he is in trouble, it is only because his film fell flat this week. He will have just as much support from voters as anyone else, based on his talent and the appeal of his movies.

I sort of disagree that it's only because of his film. I think "fan favorites" seem to have little to do with good film-making. The week that Zach wowed everyone with Danger Zone (which was CLEARLY the best film-making that week), Will received the most votes, according to the host. The first week, Getta Room got the most votes, when all of the judges hated it.

Lots of these guys have made many peers wherever they live, doing their film making. Zach has TONS of colleagues up here in the film industry, that just plain cannot vote due to geography. I would imagine that these last 6 guys are all nicely rooted in their local film community, and that constitutes a large percentage of the votes they receive.

Thee call-in/web votes are RARELY about the persons actual talent. I mean, look at some of the people that keep coasting through American Idol (Sanjaya).
