    While we were at a December screening of "True Grit", we got a preview of "Rango". When it was over, I turned to my friend and said, "What the hell was that?" I'm definitely going to see it in the theater. Say what you will about J Depp, he tends to pick very interesting projects and turn them into box office winners.
