This is why people camp out overnight.

Hall H today is why television networks cover the convention.

Now showing on cable: “Due Date”

Premiering Saturday night on Cinemax was 2010’s “Due Date”, starring Robert Downey Jr. and Zack Galifianakis.

In it, Downey plays a man who needs to fly home for the birth of his first child.

Regardless, I have to say, I could NOT wrap my head around the idea of Will Smith in a Quentin Tarantino movie. For those of you who hadn’t heard, Smith was reportedly Tarantino’s first choice.
