Dog day afternoon

Is it too early to nominate the entire voice cast of "Beverly Hills Chihuahua" for the next Razzie awards? New category!

These are the things we ponder this 100-degree October-eve afternoon, along with...

Kind of sorry we missed "The View" earlier, what with perennial Emmy loser Bill Maher stopping by to boost his confrontational Oscar-buzzy docu, "Religulous," and having a bit of a come-to-Jesus with Sherri Shepherd. Well, what'd everybody think was going to happen?

Remember those early, tremendously unfunny "shush your cell phone" ads that ran at the multiplex to remind all those geniuses not to take calls during the movie? They're getting a lot better. This one from Sprint launches Friday (more entertaining than "Beverly Hills Chihuahua!")

By the by, do those PSAs work anyway? We asked. Here's the answer. A study in 2007 found that 93% of moviegoers across the country said they switched to silence or vibrate or turned off their phones after seeing AT&T's zip-it on-screen ads. The other 7% are always sitting next to us.
