Mad Movie Guy

Normally this time of year all I can babble on about is how excited I am for the Academy Awards. Last year, quite frankly I overdosed, and this year, for that and a myriad of other reasons, I could not bring myself to give much of a fuck about them. Ive tried to get excited, but its just not happening, I don’t really care. Sure I care aboout Ledger getting his oscar tonight, thats the only real reason why Im watching as far as Im concerned. So here are my picks in a few catagories and why I feel they will win.

i-ron-ic; [ahy-ron-ik]
Origin: 1620–30; < LL īrōnicus < Gk eirōnikós dissembling, insincere. See irony
- Adjective
1. containing or exemplifying irony: an ironic novel; an ironic remark.
2. ironical.
3. coincidental; unexpected: It was ironic that I was seated next to my ex-husband at the dinner.
4. Trying to watch the Blu-Ray for the movie W. about the life and times of once elf king of america, and having the goddamn disc be so fucking set in its “stay the course” mentality, that it will not allow you to do an “audio troop withdrawl” so you can actually watch the movie, unless you have a full digital 7.1 receiver. I tried over two terms, to get it a chance and change all different kinds of settings, to allow it to be a viable option, so I could actually watch it, but noooooooo, it wouldnt fucking play, probably because I dont have a fucking haliburton surround sound receiver. So I held an election, and voted it out, shipped it back to netflix, and borrowed it off the internets, which I know is like waterboaarding the studios out of a few dollars, but what are they gonna do ? Send me to Guantanamo Bay ? Doubt it, they shut that bitch down. Fucking Bush, still pissing me off.
5. And now the file doesnt fucking work on my goddamned apple TV, fuck it, If you all never hear from me again, Im living alone in a shack in canada bottling my own urine and making paper mache busts of people I hate and then taking a shit on them.

I went to bed this morning at like 4 am, after a long fuckin week, and of course I just wanted to crash out, and sleep till sunday, but Im a maniac, so I only slept till about 745, woked my shit up, and went to go grab some breakfast, so I could come home and watch parts 3 and 4, of the three week 6 part Grey’s Anatomy/Private Parts Event. Which is not unlike the X-men teaming up with like the Avengers, to go fight in the secret wars, only saving lives instead of killing evil mutants. Both episodes made me cry a little bit, powerful shit.

I dont know, if I’ve even been at the mall on a friday night, but I was last weekend for the showing of Taken, which reminds me, when I went to see The Wrestler yesterday, at 4:30, I found out that it is not economy times on the weekends, it ends at 4, seriously, what the fuck is that about, its already bad enough that they charge like 7 dollars for “economy” times, now they have to end it at 4 on the weekends, way to be nice to the film goers. Anyways, fucking friday night, I got too the theater a bit early, so I went to grab a bite to eat, cause I was hungry. So I hung out in the food court of the mall for no more than 15 mins, and I was just not impressed by the people in this town, and how they choose to spend there time, I saw a couple of young mothers, who were more concerned with text messages than watching their children who were wandering freely around, the fucking mall, on a friday fucking night, I saw this young boy, couldn’t have been more than 13 or 14 and was on a date, and he was going out of his way to act like a prick to the girl he was with, and she was putting up with it, I almost smacked him in the back of the fucking head. There was all these young kids, in their “Notice me now” clothes, with skulls and baggy pants, and chains and wearing sunglasses. More kids wandering around, with no parents in sight, and elderly couple sitting to the left of me bitching about their food, which they had ordered from a goddamned McDonalds Express, which is the clearly the way to go if you want quality cuisine. Then the cherry on top, I decided to go to the bathroom, and the urinals were both full, so I had to go to the stall, at which I looked down, and noticed urine all over the seat, and I was just blown away, I dont understand what would drive someone to do that in a public place, I mean there are certain things that just require courtesy, I dont care if you dont have to shit, but somebody might have to shit, and they arent gonna wanna sit in your fucking urine. There were cleaner bathrooms, at bonnaroo, which I might add were being used by 80,000 wasted people. I just dont understand what the fuck it is with mall people.

In the last 2 monthes, Ive got too the movies twice, once to see Benjamin Button, and then of course, there was the most recent James Bond outing, which of course was fucking awesome. But there hasnt really been much that has perked my interest too much, so Ive been sitting back, and not hitting up the cinema much, which is fine. Then for the last few weeks, Ive been seeing the previews for Taken, and it really got me stoked to go see it, so I had to bust my ass out and go see it opening day, and it was pretty fucking badass, some quality revenge dont fuck with my family type of shit, which I can relate too, there are certain things that I wouldnt stand for, and thats people fucking with my loved ones, now while I dont have the training that Liam Neeson, had, rest assured, that if anyone who is important to me, was in a fucked up situation, I would lay a path of carnage the likes of which has never been seen. Anyways, I hit that up on friday night, then I proceeded to go have a drink, which turned into several drinks, and slept in on saturday. Visited with the family a bit, and borrowed some movies.
