I can't wait for the movie with Sean Penn to open! I wish it was before the election, as I think it would have given our side a huge boost against Prop 8 and the other initiatives in Arizona and Florida.

To be honest I had never even heard of man until I saw the promotion for the movie. I am looking forward to seeing it though.
