Jason Reitman, You Are Dead To Me.
Oh Jason Reitman, aren't you so witty and deep and magicalicious behind a movie camera's lens? Aren't you just so content to be the belle of the current Hollywood self-loving/self-loathing ball right now?
Your movie Juno, for instance. So touching and poignant and boring and well, clever. Trust us, brother, every middle-aged housewife in my neighborhood loved it.
Oh, and let's not forget that Thank You For Smoking movie you did. Again, so poignant and touching and predictable well, clever. Trust us, broseph, every pseudo-intellectual wannabe politician we know thought it was absolute genius. Only they could never tell us why, exactly.
So your new movie that you're shooting in St. Louis now, something about air travel (which always does well), is guaranteed to lock down the housewife market all over again, we're sure. You're so creative and visionary and predictably boring well, clever that we just can not wait to not see it.
To be honest, J-Reit, we wanted you to do well with your St. Louis movie. You let some of our local businesses get involved, hired a few people to work as extras, even brought on Jason Bateman, whose work on Arrested Development had us from the word Gob.
Hell, we like your dad's work. We found you interesting when you were on the Howard Stern Show. We found the 'Clooney Watch' internet posts amusing and liked seeing Bateman at the Blues' home games.
We were in your corner.
Until you stabbed the Blues and their ownership in the back.
We love that nhl.com has recruited various 'celebrity' bloggers to post their insight on their playoff portal. They've done it in the past and it has given us all an amazing look into the depth of hockey knowledge that actors, writers and bandwagon directors possess about our favorite sport.
Seriously, how else would the world have learned what 'casual fan' Lauren Conrad had to say about her beloved local team, "the Los Angeles Dodgers, ooops, Lakers. I totally meant Lakers, you guys!"
As for you and your impressive seven years of hockey fandom, well, your first blog told us everything we need to know about you:
-
You are a giant weasel.
In your first blog, presented idiot bullet-style, you mention a lot of stupid clever points, but it wasn't until you got to points four and five that we turned on you.
4. The Blues organization has been extraordinarily generous to me and my film crew - Even invited all hundred of us to a game when the Kings were in town - Even invited me to come skate with former players on the Scottrade ice on a game day. They are a tremendous group of professionals that I am proud to know.
5. Everyone in the Blues organization is dead to me.
So, Hollywood, let me get this straight; you're so weaselly clever that you thought it'd be great to take advantage of every offer extended to you by the Blues organization only to immediately say you don't need/like/care for them.
Hey genius. How does that jibe with point number nine?
9. I'll be at Games 3 and 4 in St. Louis wearing either an orca, a skate in spaghetti, a stick in the rink, or a flying "V".
You gonna call those guys up and ask for more free tickets? I thought they were dead to you, Mr. Clever?
Personally, I hope they give you a little bit of midwestern customer service:
"Hi, this is Jason Reitman, you know, from Hollywood. Please put your owners on the line, I'd like to ask them for my complimentary tickets to the game this fine eve."
"Oh, Mister Reitman. Absolutely. Mr. Checketts made sure to tell me to patch you right through to his most reliable Account Executive. Please hold."
"Janitor."
"Um, I'm sorry, there must be some mistake, I was told I was being transferred to the free tickets for Hollywood people?"
"Oh, hey, Reitman. This is the janitor. I got your tickets riiiiight here, buddy. Just come on down and get 'em."
Oh, and thanks, Jason, for telling us how to find you with your flying V or your stick-in-rink or your corporate logo whale jersey. We're sure that everyone will treat you with the utmost respect once you're done buying your tickets from one of St. Louis' finest scalpers before Game 3 and Game 4.
By the way, let me take a stab at something here. In your new movie that you're shooting in St. Louis we understand that it's about a guy who is in pursuit of flying a million miles in one year. Wild guess: does he decide to not take the record-breaking flight in favor of chasing down a woman that he realizes is the love of his life?
Clever. Very clever.

I respect that he’s a ’Nucks fan (kind of but not really), but he could have found a better way of stating that other than INSULTING OUR CLUB. What the hell? You would have thought that he dad would have taught him some class.
A fan of hockey for SEVEN YEARS? Oh, so that means I knew as much about the sport at age 13 as he does now. Cute. How is he qualified to write for them? God, find a real hockey fan. David Boreanaz and Kevin Smith are legit. Is this dude the only ’Nucks fan they could find?

Lame...
I appreciate what this movie does for the city (something like fifty-mil through jobs, purchases, site rights, hotels, etc.) and more positive press for the region, but really? They couldn’t find a true-Blue supporter? Maybe Sam-fucking-Beckett himself, Scott Bakula (Full Disclosure: I have no idea if Bakula is a Blues fan, but as a St. Louisan and a presumed sports fan [see: Major League: Back to the Minors], i’m gonna go ahead and assume he is)?
As I said in the lead…lame.
But I did like Thank You For Smoking…as an aspiring PR guy, I loved watching all the flawless spin-jobs Eckhart was executing.

be honest, this guy didnt have a chance on this one. If he stays true to his (or his wife’s in actuality) team while trying to have a little fun with the opposition, you fry him. If he says he loves the blues you guys would jump all over him for being an out of town bandwagon jumper trying to pander to the locals.

Well I meant that they should have called Scott Bakula (Cpt. Archer to all the Trekkies out there) to do a St. Louis celebrity playoff blog. Now I really want to hear his thoughts! Sean, Brad…get on that.
And of course I’m just getting in some good-natured ribbing on Reitman. I like his work ( though Juno quickly wore out its welcome). And I REALLY like his dad’s stuff. And as long as filmmaker’s aren’t portraying St. Louis as an island for criminals (see: Esacape From New York) or a cesspool of hustlers and hubcap thieves (see: National Lampoon’s Family Vacation), they’re cool with me.

307 is right...
Put him in Row A just so I can give him an express upgrade to Section 107 (advanced apologies to whoever will be sitting in the back few rows of Section 107).
Did you see #7 of his post??? He’s actually trying to prove how badass Burrows is by citing the time he pulled Duncan Keith’s (fuck the Blackhawks, just for the record) hair like a little schoolgirl in her first playground fight.

breaking down Ratman's blog
3. My last movie was shot in Vancouver. My new movie is shooting in St. Louis. I have gone to five games since arriving in Missouri. I’ve never seen the Blues lose in person. Am I scared? No. Want to know why? I’ve never seen the Canucks play here.
YOU know what?? I’d recommend you not show up. it seems you are a good luck charm for us, and you’ll only hurt your precious team’s chances of winning here.
4. The Blues organization has been extraordinarily generous to me and my film crew – Even invited all hundred of us to a game when the Kings were in town – Even invited me to come skate with former players on the Scottrade ice on a game day. They are a tremendous group of professionals that I am proud to know.
5. Everyone in the Blues organization is dead to me.
well, aren’t you a backstabbing, two-faced, lying douchebag? I’m sure even YOUR fans would be disgusted by this 180 degree turn without reason.
6. Sundin has never won a Cup… Now he’s on the Canucks. The Leafs didn’t even make the playoffs. Ha ha. Only downside? Would have been fun to watch the Canucks beat the Leafs in the Stanley Cup Final and prolong Sundin’s jersey retirement in the Air Canada Centre by a decade.
nope, there’s TWO downsides. Sundin won’t be winning the Cup as a Canuck either.
7. Last time these two met in the Playoffs, the Blues were a physical team and the Canucks were a finesse team. Hey Jackman, did you see Burrows pick that guy’s head off the ice by his hair just to punch him in the face. Watch out, Jackman. Watch out.
hey moron, you DO know you’re threatening a near-bald guy with a cowardly bitch-ass move via hair pulling, right?(oops!)
oh and Jackman would easilly whoop Burrows’ ass if provoked.
8. Goaltending. The Blues have Manny Legace playing for Peoria right now. Their starting goalie is Chris Mason… That’s funny, I haven’t heard of him either. He’s actually been playing pretty well since All-Star game… Four words – Welcome to the Playoffs. Oh, and have you met my friend Bobby Lou?
if you were a REAL hockey fan (for SEVEN whole years, OMG!!) you learn pretty quickly the names of every starting goaltender in your conference. both Legace and Mason have been starters during the tenure of your so-called fandom. not knowing this is just ignorance, and should pretty much disqualify you to be an official NHL team blogger
