What were they thinking?

I don't care *how* deep and moving a voice you say it in, Seabiscuit is a fucking stupid name for a film.

Riding Seabiscuit, Seabiscuit passes the post, Seabiscuit the superhorse, Taming Seabiscuit, Seabiscuit escapes being catfood, gosh anything would have been better. Particularly something that indicates that, say, Seabiscuit is the name of a *tossing racehorse*.

But no, in the UK the trailer comes on, and all anyone in the cinema can do is giggle. You should have thought of that, marketing people.

And another thing. The slogan for the film...

"You're Never Too Far Behind To Come Back"

Well, that's just bollocks, isn't it?

I don't know, a seabiscuit is quite nice with a cup of seatea.

Bit salty though, which is unfortunate for a biscuit.
