Well, here's the deal. I'm not a blogger. I don't know much about blogging. I have read a few, but basically what I am going to share is not informational, political or otherwise. Basically, I like to talk about tv. I like to talk about movies. I like to talk about music. So, I set this up (or rather, Rob set this up) to share (or vent) about those topics.
Song of the week: "Misunderstood" - Common feat. Bilal
Worth mentioning: "Sugar" She Wants Revenge"
Movie of the week: Lifetime's "Not Without my Daughter" (that's a joke. But seriously, there's a movie with that title)
I did just see Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist just this afternoon. It's a lovely film about teenage intoxication, bands and a lot of driving. Here's my question. These kids are from Hoboken. And 17. Yet, ALL of them know every cross street and club in New York City. The writers may have been stretching it a little on that one. I can barely find my way around downtown Indianapolis with a GPS. There were some interesting tracks in this film... only problem, you barely got to hear any of them, because they were usually overshadowed by the teenaged pithy dialogue. I'm always looking for smart teenagers in films... however, these teenagers may have been a little TOO smart for their own smarty pants. However, the scene where the drunk friend sticks her hand in the toilet (in which she just defiled) to get her gum is priceless. I squinted my eyes and looked away a little. Norah's cute... and I just want to fold Michael Cera up into a little box and stick him in my pocket... but... not sure I am ready to run out and buy this one just yet.
Two movies at home (Neflix!): Crank... a movie about an ornery baby and The Mist... a fable about a broken sprinkler. I'll let you know how they turn out.
It's Sunday. So... go to church or something.
In the words of David Cook, keep a light on for me, bitches.
I saw Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist and thought it was pretty good. I agree with you though how they make these kids way to witty and smart. These movies and shows where teens talk like they just came off of Dawsons Creek or gilmore girls with these insane and drawn out dialouge as if at 17 they have the speech of a lanuage professor. I remember being that age and everything coming out of my mouth sounded like i was a retard.And unless you are the Kardashians or the Hilton sisters no one at that age went out and had night like that. Or maybe i was just a looser. All i can say is thank you for starting a blog like this. I can wright about movies and shows all day. The only bad thins is i cant spell and have horrible grammer..Love you
