Worse than Ryan Reynolds as the Green Lantern

Apparently there's some rumors going around that John Krasinski has been shortlisted as 1/7 actors to play Captain America. First of all, Captain America is a big muscley dude and and as Michael Scott so eloquently told Jim; "you’re 6”11 and you weigh 90lbs, Gumby has a better body than you". Also Captain America definitely falls short of the top of the snarkiness meter. I mean seriously, he has got to be one of the least witty superheroes in my opinion and I don't want to picture John Krasinski being that boring. It's actually a very similar situation to Ryan Reynolds playing the Green Lantern if you think about it, funny guy being a boring super hero (that's right I think the Green Lantern is boring...and a whiner!). I hope the directors realize that almost everyone that hears John Krasinski's name now, will probably automatically associate him as being Jim first. The movie Away We Go seemed to portray him as a goofy light-hearted guy as well. He's just not a good fit in my opinion, so I hope he turns the role down and leaves it up to the other 6 (Scott Porter, Mike Vogel, Michael Cassidy, Patrick Flueger, Chace Crawford, and Garret Hedlund) actors that Marvel wants to keep on hold for 30 days during the test process (it almost sounds like they're gonna be locked up lol).

The "Jam" Story

Ok so first off, I haven't updated in like a month which I usually try to avoid. I blame the holidays/my computer getting a virus and the related terrible events that happened because of said virus. But, now that the holidays are over and I'm back at school, I've been looking forward to new tv episodes. Since the latest episode of The Office aired on the 10th of December, I figured they might have a special new years episode or just start airing new episodes a week or so after. Wrong! They aren't airing new episodes until the 21st! I find this to be incredibly bogus. Just because your show is popular and people will wait over a month for new episodes, doesn't mean you should make them wait! I mean just last week ABC showed 3 new episodes of the new Scrubs (which is surprisingly awesome, especially if you liked the old Scrubs) and Better Off Ted (also awesome, seriously Veronica is crazy...in a good way? haha) within 4 days of each other. Anyway, the next episode of The Office is called The Banker, which doesn't particularly seem exciting since everyone that watched the episode on the 10th knows that Scranton branch is safe from being fired.

Today though, The Office twitter announced that "Jim & Pam will experience the birth of their baby in a special two part episode of The Office on March 4 and 11". That's pretty cool, but seeing as how they're hyping it over a month before it's gonna happen, it had better be a good episode. I'm not really sure why it's happening on 2 different days though considering the fact that they were able to get a nice 1-hour slot for the wedding episode. Also, The Office website on NBC has decided to devote an entire mini site to Jim and Pam's story. There's dorky little pictures from each of the parts of their relationship going from "Just Friends" to "The Baby". Most of the site is coming soon still though. It's pretty cheesy if you ask me. But, if it's between girls going googoo over Jim and Pam or Twilight, then I'm all for this dorky little website. Also the pictures from "Just Friends" seem so strange sometimes that they just crack me up (seriously how weird is the picture at the top of this post?).
