Laugh riot

You know that Woodstock movie that Ang Lee's been filming in Columbia County? Yeah, apparently it's being described as a comedy. We can just see the posters now: A heart-warming, non-stop concert of laughs from the guy who brought you Brokeback Mountain and The Ice Storm! Also noted: "Ang Lee doesn't choose his movies. His movies choose him."

Oh come on, Sense and Sensibility was really hilarious. Funnest, Jane Austen, ever. And it's only 45 minutes if you watch it the right way (the fast-forward way).

[C]ommon sense tells me (yes, I know one is on dangerous ground when invoking common sense) there's room for consensus here. Or at least compromise. Although something tells me the city won't back off its regulation against live chickens performing in those stand-up comedy showcases. I guess the city has this thing about chickens.
