Sometimes it's the only way we can get through trash like Bijou Philips in It's Alive or paper mache aliens in Feeders 2: Slay Bells. You may write good, but we have to watch AND write goodly.<br /><br />Wow. I'm glad my days of visiting Maryland are well behind me. I don't like to judge regions on their racial makeup, but now this explains the crime rate in Baltimore. I'm sure had The Wire reached Season 6, those 12 episodes devoted to the growing population of clowns engaging in drug and medieval weapon war on the streets would have FINALLY won that show the Emmy it so deserved.deadlydollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061028044836745499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-35824010161358212132010-03-25T03:46:41.465-04:002010-03-25T03:46:41.465-04:00I think, if you're referencing the character I...I think, if you're referencing the character I believe, she says "He's what, 6'5, and he's got no eyes?" And Lynn corrects her on the eyes being black. So, clearly, the lady who says he's 6'5 just doesn't know. <br /><br />You critics are supposed to pick up on this shit! I don't spend all that money on mind-altering drugs just to make myself happy! It's so I can write good! That's right, GOOD.<br /><br />Clowns in Maryland are like retards in Congress.

But wait, my math is bad (Barbie told me it's okay if I don't get it so I rarely try) but that's not even the perfect average! What's going on? This is worse than all the minor errors of continuity in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves or Carrie Fisher's disappearing British accent in A New Hope!<br /><br />Sigh. I do recall the weather being much warmer in Maryland than the rough 'n tough Bronx, so it makes sense to go topless. What I didn't know was that there was such a large population of clowns down there.

But hey, we get to act like elitists and pretend we're skinny and hip, just like Justin Long. You know you're jealous.<br /><br />Yes, the subliminal messages totally worked, although a side effect seems to be that I now giggle a lot, walk around topless, and am dying of a brain disease. It's a small price to pay.<br /><br />Snarkiness can never die, particularly when for another 100 minutes, not one character notices a 6'5 clown not wearing a top.deadlydollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061028044836745499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-16137667789661466882010-03-22T17:40:14.781-04:002010-03-22T17:40:14.781-04:00I am indeed a busty blond.

That kinda sucks. Then again, Mac people are freaky noncomformists anyway, so screw em. :)<br /><br />You enjoyed it? Excellent! The subliminal "This Movie Is Good" and "You Will Enjoy This Film" messages apparently worked!

Ambitions for Monday!<br /><br />2. Do I really have to wait 4 years for that box?

Funny how the film is so clean when it comes to blood, and yet I find the very idea of a chainsaw-dealt death to be the most painful way possible to go and there's something about the very grittiness of the title that helps make that so intense. It's actually a major reason to why I hated Midnight Meat Train. When I heard the title, I instantly expected a TCM-esque down 'n dirty grindhouse-like horror and just couldn't deal with the strangely CGI gloss artwork at work in the final product.deadlydollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061028044836745499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-28782252390113623482010-03-14T11:48:52.063-04:002010-03-14T11:48:52.063-04:00John: I approve of any ridiculously wordy title!
