We are the (bridesmaids) stereotypes

The new movie poster for Bridesmaids makes me feel so clichéd.




Been there, done that

I might have forgiven Jerry O'Connell

As a teenager I had a huge crush on Jerry O'Connell. First he was on My SEcret Identity then later on Sliders. I swear, every time something important happened on TV on Sliders, his character was in the shower so he's have to come running out in a towel.

The first time Jerry O'Connell was on Conan, I was disappointed to discover that he was uninteresting and a bit of a moron. [My sister can verify as she remembers watching it too]. I think he might have redeemed himself after the Golden Globes:


I love photobombing! I also found this awesome one of Michael Douglas.

Didn't know the old man had it in him.

My favourite photobombing of all time belongs to my mom's dog Prince:
1950-40

I feel think I've gone mad

Early rave reviews for the movie Inception. I feel like the rest of the world has collectively gone insane.

Inception Trailer 2 Transcript

Leonardo DiCaprio: There is one thing you should know about me: I specialize in a very specific type of security...subconscious security.
Cillian Murphy: You’re talking about dreams?

Michael Caine: Mr Karl has a job offer he’d like to discuss with you
Ellen Page: Like a work placement?
Leonardo DiCaprio: Not exactly. We create the world of the dream. We bring the subject into that dream and they fill it with their secrets
Ellen Page: Then you break in and steal it
Leonardo DiCaprio: Well, it is not strictly speaking legal. It’s called inception.

Leonardo DiCaprio
: I’m ready. I think I found a way home. This last job is how I get there. Dreams feel real when we’re in them, it is only when we wake up that we realize that something is strange.

Title: Your mind

Leonardo DiCaprio
: This is your responsibility. You are not prepared to

Title: is the scene of the crime

Unknown Dude: The dream is collapsing

Leonardo DiCaprio
: I have it under control
Joseph Gordon-Levitt: I hate to see it out of control

Can't understand the dude
: You mustn’t be afraid to jimmy the vegit* down


*I have no idea what he said

Joss Whedon on Getting the Idea for Firefly

Joss Whedon, Future History: the Story of the Earth that Was (Serenity bonus material)

On season 2 of Buffy, I get my two week vacation and the second book I read is The Killer Angels which is about the Battle of Gettysburg and right after that I sort of become obsessed with life on the frontier and this, of course, makes me think of the Millennium Falcon because most things do.

Show Some Love to the Sisters

Sad to hear the movie Whip It isn't doing better at the box office. Why do I feel like it is because it isn't about a woman who fails at love and final finds "the one"? Broaden your horizon's people!

Quotables

Here are the rules of the game (for me):
Pick 10 of your favorite movies
Write a quote from each movie
Make your friends guess the quote
Fill in the film title once it’s been guessed

These rules are for you people:
Don't cheat.

  1. Without you, today's emotions would be the scurf of yesterday's. Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain or also more commonly known as Amélie
  2. Hey! What're you kicking me for? You want me to ask? All right, I'll ask! Ma'am, where do the high school girls hang out in this town? Swingers
  3. Who knows where thoughts come from? They just appear. Empire Records
  4. Sir. Whilst I don't wish to be rude, I do believe that you watched too many Tarzan films as an impressionable child. Mean Machine
  5. The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes, everything else is pure theory. Lola rennt or more commonly known as Run Lola Run

  8. If you hold back anything, I'll kill ya. If you bend the truth, or I think you're bending the truth, I'll kill ya. If you forget anything, I'll kill ya.

Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
  9. Man, I wanna see a picture of this Nubian princess. If you were any less black, you would be clear. Go

How Could I Have Missed it?

I just realized yesterday there is a mistake on my Swingers poster -- I've had it for 5 years. It says:
"Baby, we're gonna give big daddy the old Rainman sweep. Can you dig that money? Vegas baby, Vegas!"

It should read: "They're gonna give daddy the Rain Man suite! You dig that? We're going to Vegas, Mike. VEGAS!"

I don't even know what "the old Rainman sweep" even means.
