Somehow I never write well when I'm happy.
Fortunately it rarely happens.
So.
As an avid moviestalker, I just want to say
WTF FOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for screwing up everyone's viewing pleasure right into next year.
The bloody hell were you thinking by suing Warner's AFTER Watchmen was wrapped and set to be released????What?Why? When we've been teased with wicked posters and campy outfits?What did we ever do to you?????? I have been a loyal supporter of you, Fox, ever since X-Men the Animated Series. Ever since I figured out that movies came from studios.
Which, to be honest, was not that long ago.
Honest to God it is just pure fricking spite for Fox to do this. Watchmen was like the only movie that would seriously be worth watching. Because it was nearly exactly like the graphic novel (or so I've heard. I've never read them. But I figure from The Spirit, anything that sticks to its originally intended representation is on the right path).
Come on. You know, don't you, that Wolverine: Origins is gonna blow. Gambit looks gay, and he's only there to please the fans, because wth does he have to do with Wolverine's origins? There's no Deathstrike. Deadpool is Ryan Reynolds. Frost was a lie. Fox is behind it. Nobody gives a shit about Harry Potter. Everyone's gonna watch Star Trek because there hasn't been a decent sci-fi flick since...A New Hope. I'll watch Sherlock Holmes because I'm in love with Robert Downey Jr. But that's it. Maybe S. Darko. Which isn't even directed by the original Darko director. So maybe not.
So let's be realistic here.
There's NOTHING to watch this year.
Not without Watchmen.
Wtf Fox. I hope you never have a hit movie or tv series for the next, like, two years. Or whatever.

In fact, doesn't it make you wonder about the amount of crap that gets released every year? I haven't exactly been watching that many movies, but as I recall the ones I watched were basically all crap. In fact, I remember one movie that was so bad that I don't even remember what it was. It was the one before Max Payne, and Bangkok Dangerous, but after The Other Boleyn Girl. Is it just me? Or did I watch only crap movies this year?
Oh. Dark Knight was cool. And The Hulk.
And of course, Iron Man.
Penelope was nice too. And Juno.
Ah forget it. There will never be another Lord of the Rings.
So there.

Did anyone else notice the similarities in Twilight and True Blood? (TV series, not the books. I don't see the need to torture myself).
See:
1. Vampire vs Shapeshifter = Duh.
Shiny Ed vs Jacob. Baldspot Bill vs Sam. The shifters always lose. Why? Is there some kind of vampire affirmative action that necessitates portrayals of them being capable of true love? For God's sake. No one in their right mind would choose a dead person over a living one. Especially a dead one who can't go out in daylight/ hot sun. That's just a lousy excuse not to do heavy chores like hanging clothes and mowing the damn lawn.
2. Irritating Female Lead
They start out strong and independent. And then turn into grovelling twits needing to be rescued. Like wth. Do all women actually want that for themselves? To be saved. Out of situations they wouldn't even have been in the first place if it wasn't for their damn vampire boyfriends.
So we're all basically masochists. Explains a lot.
3. Telepathy
Ed is telepathic, but cannot read Bella's mind, which then makes him all curious about her (which is just a cover for teenage lust because vampires are too cool for that, obviously). Sookie is telepathic, but cannot read Bill's mind, which makes her all curious about him (they didn't even bother with a cover for the lust part).
Is telepathy suddenly the in thing? Becasue I honestly cannot think of a more useless ability. Especially in Sookie's case.
Did anyone think, maybe Sookie/ Ed should be telekinetic, or be able to form mirages, or have a pet demon or something that wasn't telepathy?
4. Love
Everyone's in love. Yippidee doo da. The girls do realise the vampires do this every five decades or so right? Anyway. The whole purpose of the stories are to prove how much these people love each other.
Yes.
Yay.
Good for them.
Did they have to make it so damn convoluted? And why do they assume vampires are even capable of monogamy? ARGH.
So, whatever.
This is pointless anyway.
Let me go and write a vampire story and show them how it's done.
Ha ha ha.
