FIRE UP THE MOVIE-MOBILE! I MEAN THE HONDA CIVIC!

I was telling a friend over e-mail that I was happy the fall was here and that I was looking forward to seeing more “adult” movies like Mystic River and Runaway Jury. But as it turns out, I’ll probably end up seeing Scary Movie 3 instead.
Is this such a bad thing? Well, if there was a Wayans anywhere near it, yes. I saw the first movie and thought it was okay but there were too many cheap jokes about gay people and certain parts of the male anatomy. I just find that kind of humor mean and unintelligent. There were maybe only one or two jokes I laughed at in the whole thing. Frankly, I remember very little of it. I downloaded it from my brain immediately upon exiting the theater.
The bad taste left in my mouth from the first film convinced me not to see the second. This, despite the appearance of Andy Richter, Chris Elliott and David Cross – some of my favorite comedians (even if only appearing in cameos). Maybe I’ll rent it just to make sure avoiding it was a good decision. Wait… What?
But along comes Scary Movie 3 and it’s a whole new ballgame. David Zucker is in the director…

If you’ve ever flown economy, you know that flatulent passengers is a real threat. Don’t be surprised if this happens to you mid-flight!
Red Eye has been getting some pretty good reviews which has enticed me. There are so few well-done thrillers these days. Either it’s straight up action or some hack-em-up gore fest. Very little cerebral action in between.
I’d like to see Red Eye at some point to see if it lives up to the Hitchcock comparisons. Who would have thought Wes Craven would swerve in this direction? If the film ends up being terrible, I’ll just come home and watch Rear Window. It’s a win-win!
Can I just say that I really like the second panel in today’s strip. If my Sin City arc taught me anything, silhouettes can be your friend!
Not much to say at the moment. August has been a terribly fractured month. Between my trip to Wizard World Chicago, family emergencies, moving cubicles at work, taking training classes, having people come to paint our house, landscaping and taking a business trip next week I never know if I’m coming or going.
I know there are several of you waiting for your t-shirt orders to be fulfilled. Some of you have been waiting an EXCEPTIONALLY long time because when you ordered, I didn’t have anything in stock.
I reassure you that I haven’t forgotten about you. I have ALL orders in stock. Now it’s just a matter of sitting down and mailing things out in one fell swoop. I try to knock off a couple here and there, but I want to be sure I’m not missing anyone.
At any rate, that’s my life at the moment. Exciting, huh? I bet those of you who come to the site to read the blogs are REALLY enthralled!
