Unpopular Havoc
And more of my dumb-ass opinions.
*I just saw the trailer for the new "Simpsons" movie. I hope they don't fuck this one up hardcore. Actually, judging by the few seconds of footage, I really hope that every joke in the damn movie isn't of the late-season "Homer says something really fast and then gets violently attacked" variety. Which is to say, every damn joke that is on "The Simpsons" now.
Well, there is Night at the Museum, which frankly looks like some movie Robin Williams would have made around 1996 or so. Although, when I saw that trailer, all I could think of was Homer Simpson going, "I know how to solve this...JUMANJI!"
*Another one of my creative casting suggestions goes ignored, with the race of the Darren Burrows character in Cry-Baby being decidedly changed. And, while I think the intention of this addition is good, I thought one of the smaller charms of the original film is its 180 from Hairspray being a happy, subversively honest movie about racial integration, and instead, being just plain suversive and featuring an all-white cast: Half-squares, half-trash. All of the characters in Cry-Baby are stereotypes anyway, whereas Hairspray actually did a load of good in promoting the Polish Catholic women of Baltimore as all-around good people. And, if they make A Dirty Shame into a musical? Well, I don't know if that would be as awesome as this.
Awesome as me guessing most of the Halloween costumes in Free Country, U.S.A.? I got all of them except for Poopsmith and Strong Mad. The Chaps have really outdone themselves this year. Coach McGuirk? Gizmo? Tony Clifton? Molto Mario? Hilarious!
And Coach Z. Man!
U-n-i-t-y.
