Evan Almighty

All in all it was much better than the trash I expected it to be. It was entertaining, in a feel good, family movie sort of way. Most of the funny parts were, predictably, in the trailer, but Steve Carell, even as the same character in every movie, is just hard to look away from. He can carry things. Even clunky predictable sinkers like Noah's Ark.

It was fun to look for Ty as an extra, although I didn't see him. I think he was in the big Ark scene, pre-flood at the end.

Maile Flanagan made an appearance as the Mail woman and was in the last sequence on the ark. I made a note to find out how she got famous enough to get that part. Wikipedia says she is most famous as the voice of Naruto, but she has also been in several films and TV shows in bit parts including The Office where she played Phyllis's sister in her wedding episode.
