Heckling has never really struck me as a great idea. As a heckler, you're hardly in a position of power. Sure you may have 5-10 maybe even 20 seconds to say your piece. But that's it, then it's the dude who is up on stages turn to return fire.

What we have here is a video illustrating my point. It features director Kevin Smith, responding to some audience questions at a recent Comic-Con. The heckler stands up takes the microphone, and at that point, the mistake had been made.

In my inbox the other day, I received what was said to be the latest promotional poster for the Dark Knight movie. In case you live under a rock, the Dark Knight is the next installment in the Batman saga. It will star Christian Bale as Batman and Heath Ledger as the Joker.

I don't want you to be the guy in the PG-13 movie everyone's *really* hoping makes it happen. I want you to be like the guy in the rated R movie, you know, the guy you're not sure whether or not you like yet. You're not sure where he's coming from. Okay? You're a bad man. You're a bad man, Mikey. You're a bad man, bad man.

Or there is Trent on girls:

There's nothing wrong with letting the girls know that you're money and that you want to party.

If the fact that the movie isn't one of the greatest ever made, isn't enough to make you want to get your hands on it, then maybe it's time that I pointed out that Swingers also features Heather Graham... Mmmm... Heather Graham...

Heather Graham
