geebsOn tonight's Black Donnellys, I was wondering how they were going to handle that one major plot point that occurs in the web-only episode (I'm still confused why in the world they made one of the episodes web only!) but I guess they do like a ten second recap of it. I mean, it looks straightforward, but I'd think someone who didn't watch the web ep would be kinda confused. I mean, from the few clips, you can pretty much figure out what happened- Jimmy got Kevin to try and quiet up the witness, and they tussled, and the guy ends up getting hit by a bus. Which is what happened, more or less. I mean, Kevin tries to just threaten the guy, but then when the guy doesn't back down, tries to kick his ass, but the guy gets the jump on him and kicks his ass, and as he goes to the police station, telling Kevin how not only is he gonna testify against Jimmy, he's going to tell them about this current attempt at witness tampering, he gets flattened by a bus because he's not paying attention.
Anyhoo, its almost kinda sick that they're holding the wake. I can see why Jenny's kinda sickened by Tommy, thinking he's like some kind of cold psycho. I mean, his actions can kinda seem that way. (Okay, I guess while he did it for family, he still did murder a bunch of people and cover it up, not even counting the stuff he did in the web episode to try and get Sean back into the ICU) But what the?! Is Huey's wife like hitting on Tommy or something? And while Jenny and this Samson guy have no chemistry whatsoever, I think she's going for him precisely because he's not Tommy. Or the guy she wanted Tommy to be. But wait, isn't she still married? I thought the whole sleeping with Tommy was a one time thing, and she's still technically married to that one guy no one wants to tell her that is dead.
Owel, just watching the Chumscrubber right now. Interesting movie. Of course, I can never see Camilla Belle without hearing her awful "Stop Calling Me!" from When a Stranger Calls. Anyways, I guess I never grew up in suburbia, but are the burbs really that dystopic? Then again, from the stories I hear, todays kids are pretty awful! Or am I just thinking that because I'm like an old person now, and people my age back when I was a kid were thinking the exact same things? I dunno, it does seem like kids nowadays have less manners and less respect. Of course, it could have something to do with parenting, though I can't believe parents can be that clueless about their kids lives (or even whereabouts!). It could also just be the media blowing it all out of proporation, but when I was a kid there were no pharm parties or sex orgies at houses with big showers. I mean, while I prolly wouldn't have been at one, I woulda at least heard about it, because gossip was my thing! Thinking about it, I think subconciously it was my way of trying to be part of the cool crowd by knowing everyone's business (and blabbing about it, or at least spreading a more interesting version) and living vicariously through them.
But getting back to the movie, holy cow is it getting frustrating. I mean, how can parents be this clueless about their frickin' kids?! I can't even count the number of characters in this movie I want to punch right in the face on both of my hands!
Also watched the special on F/X about the Grindhouse. To me, that movie looks like it will be pretty awesome, but I'm guessing some people think it looks stupid. I mean, Rose Mcgowan with a machine gun for a leg? But the movie seems to have a certain style about it! And Mary Elizabeth Winstead of Final Destination 3 and Sky High fame is looking pretty hott in that cheerleading outfit in the "Deathproof" portion of the Grindhouse.
