I rather sit thru Ishtar and Hudson Hawk back to back than to watch the Bozos from both parties for an hour.

Not showing up is the best thing FT has done.

At least Isthar is funny.

At least Ishtar is funny

It is? Maybe my memory is going.

“At least Ishtar is funny”

That’s what I was wondering. Michael Totten might be the only person in the entire world who enjoyed Ishtar. It was a major box office flop. Thank God, he writes excellently regarding war on terror issues. Totten should, however, perhaps think twice about writing movie reviews.

maybe he meant ‘unintentionally’ funny. like a dumb joke –you laugh not at the joke but at the idea that someone would tell it.

Oct 6, 2007 - 12:00 pm 6. David:
