Agree with EssBee on the thumbs down for The Fourth Kind. Still going to see Tron in the theater dammit! Or is that like saying “I’m still going to see Weekend at Bernie’s 3 dammit” now?
If the 4th Kind hadn’t been so insistent on telling me that it was telling me the truth, I might have been able to play pretend for long enough to believe it, but since it was protesting its innocence so much I was never able to get past the lies.
And watching the movie inside the movie and the movie outside the inside movie at the same time was redundant and confusing and boring. “Didn’t this -just- happen? Oh, yeah, it did.”
EssBee – What was it about Rachel Getting Married that didn’t work? Looking at the IMDB I can tell I wouldn’t care for this movie, but it could have been quite intense.
Last night’s dream was a rerun from a few years ago. I dream that there was a whole other set of extremely large rooms to our house that we didn’t use because they were full of stored items. One of the items is a color widescreen tv from the 1950′s with a screen that measures 10 inches high by 3 feet wide. It is upholstered in a floral print. My subconscious needs an intervention.
So the top five grossing concert acts were Bon Jovi, AC/CD, U2, Lady Gaga and Metallica.
The concerts that needed to scale back ticket prices to improve attendance were The Jonas Brothers, Rihanna, Santana with Steve Windwood, Creed, Maroon 5 and the “American Idol” live tour.
Is it just me or is there a disconnect between what type of music people want to see and what acts promotors want to push?
“If someone graciously opens the door for you, saying “thank you” will make your ass look better as you walk through it”
The mis-type was when you called the LOTR films “god-awful”.
No amount of gratitude will make my ass look better.
Haey Haey
Not even a couple six packs? works for me.
Oh I forgot the hyphen, didnt I Jack?
Teasey Weasey
I did just view Tron Legacy at the theater.
In the 3D
With the Dan.
We will review it in complete reviewal on LLAP.
We covered the Nikki Cox issue on LLAP in case anyone would like to see..
it’s a visual: http://lovelongandprosper.com/podcast/?p=294
So – yeah… um…
srsly….
Tron Legacy…
Well… Jeff Bridges is hot…
And it was kinda pretty and the music was fun… It didn’t seem very 3d and the Sam guy didn’t impress me much.
Youre being too nice, CJ

CW: Rachel Getting Married
Yeah, we may see Ishtron tomorrow, in spite of all the negative press.
*Pats Tron on the head*
Rachel Getting Married – thumbs m’eh
CW: Ricky Gervais – Out of England
Rachel Maddow ?
I never heard of Nikki Cox but Jack’s comment nailed it on the head.
Oh, she used to have a cute smile. Eek, that’s a shame.
I don’t get the lace thing either. It always looks crunchy to me.

Lace can work.

Oooooh Summer is on the latest Dragon Page..it’s been a while.
“Ishtron”
People PEOPLE! Whats with the lace hate? Its pretty and comes off easily.
Noooooomaaaaaaaaaaad Scryyyyyyyyyyyy!
“Eek, that’s a shame.”
‘love and other drugs’ was pleasant enough, spoilt by the stereotypical crude fat guy and the tramp cured by stolen Prozac…
I’m awake and out of bed.
My coffee tastes good.
um.. I’m going to Petco today.
and…
I took a muscle relaxant that is likely to not work and I have a pinched nerve in my neck that is pissing me off.
like really.pissing.me.off.
Good morning!
NS, it was intense, but also too slow and BORING.
We’re shooting for Harry Potter today if I can get this cough under control a bit.
Sorry CJ.
I had that exact pinched nerve for 2 days and was just rejoicing the fact that I woke up today without it. Guess it found a new home :(
heh
“Harry Potter and the Cough Suppressant”
“Sing with me, sing for the year
sing for the love and sing for tortilla.”
That’s it, JOe. I feel minimally sorry for the rest of the folks in the theater.
There is no doubt you put your inbox out.
Essbee – how wrong would it be to pick out a group of people you don’t care for and go have lunch with them.
*cough*
*coughcoughcoughHACKcough*
If you took that cough to a Catholic church service would it be considered a “Weapon of Mass Destruction” ?
Great idea!
Or push the Church to Critical Mass?
Nice.
Critical Mass – They spend the sermon condemning those who came to church with a bad cough.
In fairness, I’d do jokes about Presbyterians (my particular flavor) but all of those jokes are basically about forming committees.
So if they formed a committee in hell would that make them Cenobyterians?
hmmm, “committee in hell” … I think it would make them redundant.
*grin*
CP – South Park’s “Christmas time in Hell”
synchronicity?
With one breath, with one flow, you will know.
OMFG 1996 called… they want you to take down their website already…

BUt but.. it’s sooo pretty!
Tubular even…
My eyes! My Eyes!!!!!
Cool of them to put the official movie site on Geocities.
CE – Just had a slice of banana nut bread, big glass of eggnog, a handfull of M&M’s and then a Hershey’s kiss … I think this may be a cry for help.
It’s been a long time since I thought about Geoshitties.

Geocities. Now thats a name Ive not heard in a long time. A long time.
I thinks its a cry for diabetes, JJ.
My head still hurts.
Just thought I’d share.
CW: Goin’ Native – The Indian Comedy Slam
LOL!
WTF? ^
It’s on Showtime, and totally HIlarious – especially watching w/ Sly B and her mama.
“What do we call a midget comedian? A mini haha”
Sounds like a hell of a pow wow!
… and now I’m back from my sugar induced nap.
Nap = coma
I need a beer induced pass-out.
So the top five grossing concert acts were Bon Jovi, AC/CD, U2, Lady Gaga and Metallica.
The concerts that needed to scale back ticket prices to improve attendance were The Jonas Brothers, Rihanna, Santana with Steve Windwood, Creed, Maroon 5 and the “American Idol” live tour.
Is it just me or is there a disconnect between what type of music people want to see and what acts promotors want to push?
Somebody pass out a coma to Lo Pan
Rhettro – there has to be some sort of “Duel of the Concert Fates” there.
Maybe Lady Gaga vs. Rihanna
Bon Jovi vs. Steve Windwood ?
Not sure which pairings would equate the best.
I don’t suppose any of you good folks happen to have an Ark handy, do ya?
Or, at least Morgan Freeman’s direct number?
The storms have been merciless today.
JOe: Cool.
Ed: It’s cool and rainy here as well. I don’t like it. :(
I had a egg and chip induced nap earlier.
+n
Strangely enough, Hard Rain (that stars Morgan Freeman) is now playing on BBC1.
I remember seeing it at a local cinema, which was partly shutdown due to flooding.
?
The movie Hard Rain JJ:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_Rain_(film)
Straight to video in the US it seems.
Errr no, straight to video in most countries..not the US where it was a flop.
I’m going to have a sugar coma of my own. Someone gave me a tin of peppermint patties. They are frickin delicious. I’d forgotten
I wish it had stayed forgotten.
That was almost a Twilight Zone eerie coincidence, Van.
Thankfully, the rains have subsided. Too dark to go chasing rainbows.
I’ve actually seen bits of “Hard Rain” .
What I remember is this seemingly endless, low speed jet-ski chase through a flooded High School.
Ed – re: chasing rainbows
There’s no place like home.
There’s no place like home.
There’s no place like home.

Worst . Bowl . Season . EVAH!
When you have so many Bowl games that there are unranked teams playing each other …
you get MEH
BTW – don’t know if Jack was planning on taking the week off but I think he should! (As in, no show)
Spend the time with your kids Jack!
Thx J0e, but they’re in bed, and I’d like to see if I can still do this, even with very little content contributions. (but not none)
Maybe.
Aw, It’s the Holidays … don’t pull a creative muscle.
I’m not sure which one that is actually.
Why are the Coloradianititians howling my name? Is This War?
No.
Oh, okay. =)
