Waiting, the restaurant comedy that looks funnier every time I watch the trailer (it opens Sept. 23), is the product of first-time writer-director Rob McKittrick, who’s been blogging about the production. Actually, the waiter-turned-filmmaker has been blogging about how the deal to make the movie came together. Selling the screenplay, which he began writing in 1997, was evidently a long and tortuous process; he’s been writing about it for two months, and he’s only made it up to about 1999 so far. Still, this is a very funny and bilious blog, thanks to frequent mention of McKittrick’s nemesis, the unnamed ”S—bag Producer.” If the movie is as sardonic and profane as the blog, McKittrick will never have to serve another fried onion blossom again.

If Ryan Reynolds is involved, I bet the movie will be nasty, filled with all sorts of saucy innuendo, and will be hilarious. He was a gem in the underrated “Van Wilder”, and one of the few saving grace’s of Blade III.
This movie looks hella funny and the director seems really cool as well. Not only does he have the blog you mentioned, he also writes on the message board at the movie’s website, as well as on the message board at IMDB. I can’t wait for its release.
Saucy innuendo. I like it. Channels visions of Val Kilmer in Real Genius:
