Will Ferrell's dog picks his scripts

Yeah, we know he's just joking, but we like Will's sense of humor and are anxious to see Stranger Than Fiction, so here is a funny bit from IGN.com:

Will was asked how he select scripts, and apparently his dog has a crucial role. Says Will, "I have my dog look at it -- just kind of sniff it. And if he gives me a look which, sometimes I don't know if he's giving me the look or he's just hungry, I have to decipher that, then I'll read it."

It seems Will's pooch sniffed out a winner, because Rotten Tomatoes has his new film rated at 73% (as of tonight). Good dog! Good doggie!
