Going In I've been a fan of Richard Linklater since a friend showed me a VHS bootleg of Slacker after discovering we had a mutual affection for Clerks.  I remember not being quite sure what I had just...

Going In I dig Seth Rogen. Even though he plays approximately the same character in every one of his movies, he hasn't gotten old yet.  And I liked the previous installments of the Rogen/Franco trilogy:...
