I have to disagree - the live event, well, sucked. As a DVD extra, it may have been cool. Paying $20 to sit for two hours of Showtime ads was annoying. Paying $20 to see outtakes - “here is stuff that sucked so bad we wouldn’t use it, so now you get to watch it” - sucked. Chris needs to take a chill pill, or practice being in front of an audience; he was clearly not on his game. Ira, for the most part, did what I think he could with what he was given. The live audience questions were spotty (some not so good, some really good). Too bad Ira ducked the most interesting one; his response about the gay guy in the closet was lame.The question I sent in, which didn’t get asked, was “why do you hate America so much?”. It would have been very on point, considering the amount of screen time given to a former agent of Saddam’s regime’s propaganda arm. Why did his family lose jobs? Possibly in the de-Baathification push?
Sadly, I’m out of characters.
From TAL’s wall. I still listen to TAL every week, but my question for Ira still stands.
