Hello! Welps, this myspace hasn't been cooperating and my socks are missing their elasticity. Aside from that, my throat feels like it's being invaded by 4 b.c. Romans. Indeed it has not been a good day. Anyways, since I care about you guys, I'll trek through the fields of dead white blood cells and tell you all the goodness, and some badness of this week. one, two, seven! Aladdin: Stolen from the Bowie record, Disney finally releases it's mega-hit on DVD. Featuring two discs, new songs and all that good stuff. I count my blessings thanking the Disney Gods that they did not insert the "new song" into the feature...ahem Lion King. Any case this will cheer up your illigitimate child and even more so when the first 50,000 copies come with a handful of Robin Williams' hair! eww. Born Rich: Yeah we hate them too. But they couldn't help being BORN into such a luscious, ill-deserved life. So I blame it on the parents. This made for cable documentary filmed by one of their own hits the plastic with 24K gold plating. Each disc comes with a designer sleeve ala Gucci, Fred Segal et al, and certificate for a free ride on Paris Hilton, or was that a free ride to Paris, and stay at the Hilton? Who knows these days.
Decline of the American Empire: I'm thinking the title signifies the USA empire, when really Canadians are techinically Americans too. Bastards, always blaming us. Therefore, it's the Decline of the Canadians! YAY! Anywho, Denys Arcand's first big hit, way before all that Barbarian stuff. Big amongst the cultured kind, or what we call Camericans.
Fahrenheit 9/11: Blah, blah, blah, blah. it's here.
The Five Obstructions: Lars Von Trier's trivial documentary about making and remaking a film, uh, about five times. Whatever dude. Wouldn't anyone else wanna see a sequel to Zentropa?
Horns and Halos: The cover shows this guy hiding behind a picture of Dubya, gleeming like Kevin Smith a couple of weeks ago. Yet another poli-doc to fill our walls. If you didn't get your fill from the aforementioned film, here's another that'll float, or sink you float.
Saved!: The ! is part of the title, not ours. Christianity is the butt of this film, Mandy Moore is Rachel McAdams character, and Jena Malone is of course Lindsay Lohan. Featuring young actors that aren't young enough to be the roles they play, Saved! was a small favorite on certain fests. Enjoy the mocking of your religion!
Also not mentioned above are the following: Tess (Roman Polanski), Strangers with Candy Final Season, Unconstitutional, The Hunger DVD, The Inner Tour (Israel), and James' Journey to Jerusalem (Israel).
Lastly, the badness: This sunday a beloved, if not typecast actress left us. Ms. Janet Leigh, 77, passed away from vasculitis. Come visit us and see our humble tribute to Ms. Leigh and see something else besides Psycho. 1927-2004
ok go out and be merry, and someone please send me some cough drops.
