my cousin lives in utah and i've lived in park city a summer or two and i think it's absolutely ridiculous they want to boycott sundance, sundance has nothing to do with the mormon church or those supporting prop 8. it's ridiculous people think everyone in utah is mormon, there isn't even a pure mormon under the age of 25 in utah anymore. it's now a completely corrupt state. the only true mormons are like 20% of the entire population living in provo or ogden. WHAT THE HELLLL

The 007 movie was good action wise but story wise Casino Royale was better. Cant wait for Twilight and Valkyrie.Karma for Cuban for his arrogance,anti American sentiments and his anti war movie that demonized our U.S.troops. Martha Stewart is not the only one doing inside trading.
