Random Thoughts and Rants
Jul. 28th, 2001 02:44 amIf you've ever seen Bridget Fonda in 'Point of No Return'... Er. Actually, I should have said, Have you ever read Paul Preuss's novels based on Arthur C. Clarke's Venus Prime? Fonda, from PoNR, IS Venus Prime. It was making me laugh maniacally on my drive up from Wally World earlier.
Got to work out the schedule tonight. Didn't tell Don, but if I don't get Saturday off, I won't be coming in. It's my brother's wedding. Got off for Sunday and Friday, though. *shrug* The new fuckheaded brat can work Saturday. And I may not have a job.
Random Rant: Or, sort of random.
I am so SICK of people just automatically panning a movie for genre. It's so fucking close-minded.
Do you have to watch every movie that comes out? No. But when you say, "Oh, I don't watch Chick Flicks, 'cause they're stupid." You're panning an entire genre that has quite a few GOOD movies in it.
Oh. Boo hoo. You get bored if your little mind isn't entertained with an explosion every two seconds. I forgot.
See, unfortunately, movies where they talk in a reasonable language--ie, no curse words every two sentences (or every other word)--are so few and far between, it's a wonder they ever get made.
Sadly, the public of America want violence, sex, and bad language.
Mainly because they're all stupider than the box of rocks I have in my closet. The rocks are from Florida, so they're sort of venerable and retired. The stories they tell about the good old days are nice.
I don't exactly yearn for the days when movie heroes and heroines spoke in Shakespearean rhyme. But I do wish there was less reliance on cursing. These days, that's all people say. "Fuck." "Fuck." <-- conveys twenty paragraphs of dialogue.
But. Yeah, I'm getting off track.
So. People pan whole genres, just because they don't like 'em. Oops. Sorry. Your loss. Loser.
However. For the record.... I think you're all close-minded little shitheads who shouldn't be allowed to breath the same air I do. You're a waste of the good space of my planet, and if I could, I'd wipe you out.
Thank you.

On other subjects...
Watched Charmed tonight. Cute show. Gave me many ideas on the whole Great Destiny thing...
Oh!
Was listening to Depeche Mode's 'Violator'... "Personal Jesus", "Halo" and "Waiting For The Night To Fall" are SO Faith songs.
Second strange thought of the night: Eliza Dushku as Vivian Leigh.
Don't ask ME why.
Maybe it's the dark hair, sorta heart-shaped face, and lots of attitude thing....
So. Open up your minds, don't forget to wipe your ass... And remember: just because you can't be intelligent, doesn't mean you can't shoot yourself in the head. Remember to actually put bullets in the gun!
