Yes, 25th Hour was the best movie released last year, but Spike Lee can still be hard to figure out: he's suing the cable network Spike TV, the former TNN, for using his name without his consent. In the affadavit, Lee notes that the name "Spike" was intended to represent personality traits that are "irreverent, aggressive, unapologetically male, smart and contemporary," which, he notes, "the public through media publications had come to associate with me."

It must be nice to be able to say that.
