Suddenly you look back and it's 4 years later and you're still stuck in "jebus you're stupid" land. No way to live. In fact, I feel on the verge, on this very day. It's unavoidable, really.

Damn mosquitoes. Mosquito bite on my left wrist is mildly irritating me.

Mosquito stew! Not a bad idea. *pukes*

All the freaking hoohaa over that stupid-sounding new movie Eat Pray Fuck Love.

Oh swoon, another story about someone who is OH SO HURT but then finds LOVE while jaunting around the world to get over being OH SO HURT. Yeah, that's what I did after my divorce, jaunted around to get over my HURRRRRTTTTTTTTT. Oh right, I didn't do that. I kept going to work and trying to get through every day.

Early reviews don't give me any reason to think otherwise.

Quote:

"Eat Pray Love," the movie, directed by "Glee" co-creator Ryan Murphy, can't muster the sound of Elizabeth Gilbert being Liz. It just can't, no matter how dutifully Murphy and co-screenwriter Jennifer Salt stitch phrases from the page into the screenplay, because the very nature of movies -- images come to life, words spoken out loud -- is antithetical to Gilbert's distinctive literary style, with words passed privately, silently, between the writer and her reader.

Quote:

If only Roberts' warmth, coupled with Javier Bardem's scruffy sexiness as Felipe, were enough to compensate for the folded-map flatness of this production. If only this glossy "Eat Pray Love" -- an armchair journey for these staycation times -- didn't amount to a whole lot of navel-gazing about problems that, absent the author's unique narrative language, don't nearly fill up the 133-minute space the movie version allots.

Boo-de-hoo, even an appearance by the underrated Richard Jenkins won't make me go to the theater to see this tripe. But it's going to be a HUGE blockbuster. Sigh.

However, I'm very excited about Scott Pilgrim!

Quote:

The hipster's event movie, "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" is an anti-blockbuster, an amped youth comedy that's so far out of the mainstream it's not only filmed in Toronto, it's set there too.

These days even hipster movies come out of comic books. And they can stretch to include wiz-bang digital effects, just so long as they're delivered with an ironic wink, or a "Batman"-esque "Kappow!"

The big joke in Bryan Lee O'Malley's slacker odyssey - and it's a good one - is that when his under-employed underground hero (the cutely anxious Michael Cera) takes up with a cool American girl, Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), he must fight it out with her seven exes in videogame-style battles.

Are these dreams, hallucinations, or fantasies? Could Scott be the hero of his own computer game without even knowing it? O'Malley doesn't say and doesn't care. The fights are as real as anything else in Scott's rather blurry life -- and more interesting than most of it.

I know, right?

I hope someone finds my rants as funny as I do. If not, oh well. I crack myself up, which is what really matters.
