frankie muniz crossed god when he got into that race car. the speedway's just not his turf. and the cosmos will make him pay.
(taglines for upcoming biopic, starring shia labeouf as frankie muniz)
grendel!!!!!!!!!! so good!!!!! I hope crispin glover and angelina jolie read it to help them prepare for their roles. I like imagining them having grendel book club together.
all I can come up with is that the original vision and intent were to make a film that looks like a collection of cut scenes from a really shitty video game.
I don't know about you guys, but MY least favorite part is when the top rider reaches down and grabs then man-car's dick to make him go faster. his ass jerks up and he growls in pain/delight. the internet!
I really haven't liked either of the season 3 episodes. I'm getting a little worried. if mad men stops being the light of my television, what remains? soaps? springer? the local station with information about the next town hall meeting? I don't know anymore.
1. everything about the the opening scene was incredible, the acting was excellent (though I did not enjoy brad pitt--- but then, I just hate him), and I almost didn't get bored.
2. the random narration made me laugh uncontrollably because it was the stupidest idea ever, mike myers as churchill's right hand man?, and I think that tarantino's thought process for a great deal of the writing was probably lazy and ridiculous. "what enemy can I kill mercilessly and excessively while showing that the killers thoroughly relish the act and making audiences feel great about? nazis! pat on the back! five dollar milkshake!"
I thought it might work for nazis, but I don't think that would work for anyone.
it was years ago, before it became !!!!!TWILIGHT!!!!!, that my little sister emotionally blackmailed me into reading the book.
technically, based on a laffs-to-words ratio, it is the most entertaining book I've ever read.
that was not meant to be a response. but it hasn't hit me either. I think I'm just going to watch ferris bueller's day off tonight and force-start the grief.
I don't know guys - cole was a little terrifying. forcing taylor to discuss her "past" (I use that word VERY loosely) with sebastian in front of him? sitting taylor down with his ex and saying "ex-girlfriend. girlfriend. talk. be friends"? just showing up at a party she never even told him she was going to? that's kinda your boyfriend. but at the same time, if I were in a relationship with taylor, I would kill myself because she seems to grow more and more soulless all the time, so.
fuck I hate myself for spending time thinking about this. despairgum.
HOW CAN HER PERSONALITY AND BRAIN GIVE IMMEDIATE BIRTH TO STATEMENTS THAT WOULD TAKE ME DAYS TO WRITE. "And I have all this great information"... it must be tough, being this awful. I actually kinda respect her for being unflinchingly (unintentionally) entertaining.
my relationship continues to disintegrate as my boyfriend insists we watch this every sunday night. please contine recaps. otherwise, I am actually going to leave him. I would rather live on the streets whoring myself for ramen than hande this show alone.
I know!! fucking ridiculous!
I've always been too obsessed with Roald Dahl (my first internet search ever, at the age of 9, was "Roald Dahl fan club," and upon reaching one I learned that he was dead), and I constantly imagine moments in popular culture that are causing him to turn in his grave. I think this trailer is one of them. and I don't think Roald Dahl would be happy about the George Clooney involvement either.
don't put trivial pursuit and katherine heigl in a post together. it's just not fair. I spent last night playing trivial pursuit and woke up slightly stoned, with a massive hangover and memories of FUN. If I'd spent last night with katherine heigl, I suspect I would have woken up in a ditch somewhere, with no self-respect and maybe without a kidney, because I think that's probably what she eats.
so happy about this. jay-z has always been my boo but now my respect for him has really shot through the glass ceiling.
he's got 99 problems but caring about commercial appeal ain't one.
my 9-year-old self watching this video:
"oh no oh no oh nooo what is that thing oh my god oh my god what is this video even about oh my god there's no way I can focus on anything except its beady little eyes oh my god oh my god hey I think I'll let a man by a telephone booth buy me potato chips after school."
this show is actually hurting my relationship. I get so angry every sunday night when my boyfriend watches it that I pick fights over nothing. I have no idea how to proceed from here. I just really fucking despise true blood. I decided to start reading these reviews in an attempt to at least appreciate it for its unintentional comedy. so, gabe, accept this completely unfair pressure that is being forced on you.
in my female experience, it requires enough alcohol to get you to the point of gaining sexual pleasure from, say, having sand rubbed into your eyes, or being crucified.
my favorite part of the episode by far was the moment when serena was discussing gabriel's internet-thang and said, "oh you have to invest, how else will all the African teenagers send in posts to gossip girl!" and then they both chuckled. what a comfortable bridging of the upper east siders' world of luxury and excess and the poverty-stricken continent of Africa. not.
I also love whenever stephanie strings together meaningless platitudes in an artless, uneasy way to convince heidi to stay in the relationship: "love doesn't make sense, and no one ever said it was easy, because my brain is slowly rotting"
I don't know, I found heidi and spencer oddly compelling this week. heidi had a small, ever-present smirk that made me incredibly uncomfortable the entire episode. a result of the ever-settling facial surgery? shitload of pills? or is it just true love?... I mean, I'll know I've found that special someone when I meet a man whose idiocy is so overwhelming that a majority of his dialogue is impossible to comprehend, and he describes a therapist as "some random stranger who went to an extra YEAR of school so that they get to tell me how to live MY LIFE."
I just... don't understand anything about this. who thought this would be comedy gold? comedy anything? I now must face the day with this as my sunrise.
As a child, I was taught to fear. The kitchen was a den of terrors. And so every time he grabbed the food processor, or the beaters, or the hot cookie pan, I expected screams and severed fingers. This video made me more uncomfortable than almost anything else on videogum (except the hairy tentacle; that's never going to stop running through my nightmares)
as per j's roots: at first I thought it was some sort of subtle statement about her leaving the world of fashion, caring less about superficialities and returning to school; but then halfway through the episode they re-dyed her hair and I remembered that there's nothing subtle about this show.
