Kudos to my negro, Drew Barrymore, for having directed a fine first feature film. I screened Whip It last night with another writer friend of mine. Wow!
I hated the opening title sequence. I mean, don't get it twisted--I love the fact that she dropped Kings of Leon's "Knocked Up" in there. But the titles were a little too Hal Hartley for me. However, the rest of the film was outstanding. It was funny and touching and so effing cool! OMG! Good for her. I was super impressed.
I'm thinking about getting away for another weekend vaycay. I have a lot of annoying things (and by things I usually mean "people") I'm dealing with lately. I'd love to have a laser gun that melts people's faces off at will. Hmm... somebody should mock that up along with the widget I requested a little while back. I still expect my cut, though. These ideas aren't for free, folks.
Listening to the Specials right now. "Do Nothing." I dig this song. Some of their stuff annoys me, but this is a good song--in the "woe is me; life is putrid, let me have an emo freak-out" sort of way.
Hmm...what else? Oh yeah! Comic-Con is going down in the S.D. this weekend. Hope you got your tix for that shit. Love that event. Check out the List. It's the 10 best and worst things about Comic-Con. There's some pretty funny stuff there.
