Simon Pegg Doesn't Want Us To Buy His DVD Simon Pegg and Robert Weide are mad that the US version of the DVD of their movie, How To Lose Friends And Alienate People, doesn't have their chosen bonus material on it, so they're all "Don't buy it, guys, for real." DEAL. (Zing.) We still might Netflix it out of a mixture of curiosity and contrarian-ness, though.

Simon Pegg is great. But reverse psychology is a real thing.

It's not even worth the Netlix. It's like if Hollywood gave a british director an enema and what ever backwashed out was smeared onto celluloid.

I just want to see it 'cause a friend of mine said that Roy and Jen from "The IT Crowd" make cameo appearances in it.

Ok I wasn't very interested before... despite liking Simon Pegg a lot I couldn't actually watch "Run Fat Boy Run", and Kirsten Dunst fails to energize me. But now that you've told me this I will definitely netflix it. I'm a little sad that there's no Moss, but Roy is kind of my boyfriend so I'll be fine.
