Some slightly cool news
Jul. 15th, 2007 01:59 amI'm always bitching about how blackfolk--even the smart ones--end up dead in horror flicks, right?
Well, with all the crappy stuff SciFi has pulled lately in regards to POC, at least they conceded one thing.
In Supergator, the black chick not only lives, but has some brains and proves to be smarter than her white professor (and he even concedes to that point at the end of the movie).
Mind you, she didn't get to fight the gator, and fell prey to the usual female screamfest that happens.
But.
She lived all the way through the movie, with barely even a scratch. ^^ That's something, at least.

Random note-like things
Jul. 2nd, 2007 06:38 pmHDTV can make even Jon's vampire movie look good.
Dad is on his way home and I miss him already.
I have discovered I have a reluctance to consider anything other than friendships at the moment.
I like the rain, but the flooding is...um...yeah, bad.
Likewise loving the thunderstorms. I have missed them.
Um...yeah. Not much more to say. Except that I didn;t used to think Jon was one of the more handsome guys out there. When did that change?
Oh yeah, that's right--he preserves/ages well, that's why.

Well, I haven't found the printed word yet, so I'm treating it as a rumor rather than fact, but the radio station I'm listening to says a new rating system in the film industry is being proposed for films that contain people smoking.
As in; it has smoking, it gets an automatic 'R' rating.
...Uh, wow. That's...pretty special. As in, isn't anyone capable of self-teaching themselves or learning basic common sense from their own families anymore?
Just...wow. O.o
(I really dislike smoking, enough to be grateful for things like no-smoking zones, and I still think this is out where the buses don't run, okay?)
Sequel-itis, anyone?
I loved the original movie from, what was it, the 70's? Enjoyed the remake. The second one was okay but lacked something.
I'm not so sure a 3rd one is going to be all that good...

This has got to be the most inane reason I've ever had.
But, you know...it makes me laugh, even if no one else gives a flying potato...
The things you hear on the radio when you wake up.
Over here in the first corner, we've got Mr. Richie Sambora and Wife, (AKA Heather Lockleer).
In the second corner is Mr. Tommy Lee. Skank guitarist and never-quite-grew-up rocker.
So...first thing out of the DJ's mouth: Richie and Heather are having maritial problems--it's getting blamed on out of synch scheduals (which are about to get worse while Richie's band go on tour). Yeah, like neither one of them know how to book a flight and a one-night stand with their lover...it happens all the time with the unmarrieds in Hollywood, folks. Don't let them little rings on your fingers tell you otherwise.
Hell, might even spice something up.
And, boy, I guess at least in Heather's case, that's exactly what she's needing and doing...
With Tommy...
Er, yeah...Mr. Attention-whore, skanky ass, 'when was the last time you took a bath, dude?' Tommy.
Uh-HUH.
Okay, chicky girl? Cluebat here? There are cuter and less dirty guys around than Mister Tommy...and if it's a sex problem, believe me when I say all it really takes in most cases is a five second lesson in 'How about you touch me here and in this way' to rival Mr. Tommy.
Crap, he isn't even cute looking anymore. Richie's got him beat by MILES. Sit down with the hubby and teach him a few things. Then work out a fricking schedual. And quit messing around with the past. He ain't gonna do you any better this time around.
As for Richie...
DUDE! Didn't Jon TELL you to stay the fuck out of Hollywood? That it was BAD for you? HUH?
She keeps it up, dump her, go home. The folks are better in Jersey anyway.
And as a final note to this totally pointless post:
Richie VS. Tommy?
I'm for Richie all the way. Tommy'll be too busy looking for his drugs.
Give him hell, man. (Give him one for the Gipper?)
Okay, rambling done now. feel free to go back to your regularly schedualed lives.
