11:28 (o glorious return)

Hey All

After a long deserved break, a tussle as to who will actually manage this shindig and a few staff add-on's, we are here waiting for all your lovin once again. Hell, we'll even take the heckling sans the racism, as long you promise to keep us warm with vegan marshmallows, smiles and a small wiggle of noses. Now suck in your thorax because here we go:

alflafa, don't cheat:

Clerks 2: How a propos to reinvigorate this blog diggity with Clerks 2. Sure, K. J. Smith has paid his attention elswhere, proper, but when happenstance lands it's sexy self in your lap, you best be buying dinner. So yes, angry clerks are back filled with obseqious banter and flat falling riffs and gags. Just don't go on getting confused with how Club VT runs it's shit. We like to run this thing like a well lubricated German, angry accents and all.

Seinfeld Season 7: November 17th. The day the laughter died. sigh.

Superman Returns: So there's been some great debate as to Brandon Routh and whether he is Super or even a Man for that matter (my lady thinks I'm both). I think he's eleventeen. In any case, this hunkydory plays the new Clark Kent and unbeknownst to me, Parker Posesy finds herself acting in this. Oh Parker, with a name and indy cred sheet like you...I guess I should understand that we all have to pay the bills. I just remember you being on every flaneur's top five, paying homage to you by looking stupid in their best attempt to mimic your costumes in Party Girl...oh no, I guess that was 'in' back then, in any case, keep on truckin Parker. Just don't go finding yourself writing a myspace blog about sexy video store clerks.

*******

So yeah, that's about it for this time out...short and sweet, but before we go, let me clue you in as to the ins and outs of 1005 mission st. So for the infamous Recommended wall:

at the top: we have given in to the technological gods and have brought in a slew, ok like 6, but a few Blu-Ray and HD-DVDs for those well and able to-dos with giant flat screens, and maybe even a $600 game console. (breathe) so yeah, but gawk at the lovely packaging that just may well collect dust one day.

Robert Altman 1925-2006: Yes the poor man has left us for the big cinema in the sky, surely to enthrall all those souls up above (did you get the sarcasm there?)...no no no, most of us love the guy. Come give him some rental loving in our section devoted to all that he could give.

Season's Screenings: The holidays are back, and yes this means Hannukah and ok even Kwanza, but hell no to Boxing Day! The VT staff has searched hell and high water looking for those holiday classics that you remember and even some that may cause you to scratch your head. Just don't bring the disc up and say why is this there? Just trust us, it's there for a reason.

It's beginning to look a lot like Kidsmas: If you're kids couldn't get any naggier, throw one of these on the tube and plop em down in front, and they'll be wrapped up for about 70 minutes, just enough to get your freak on with that eggnog.

A few staff picks: Rick: Sinking Ships: Hmm, let's find the metaphor, nihilistic meets impending doom of characters on boats. Yes!
Grace: Travel Time: She won't be doing much travelling with that flu of hers. Sorry Gracie!
Alpha: Don't cry Lonely Dancer: Should have been called Hold Me Closer Tiny Dancer.

Now at this point you must be saying, "who the hell is Alpha?" Yeah, we still don't know, but she's hopped onto this enterprise so say hello to her and her nice floppy hat. Other new blood:

Teresa
and the occasional Eugenia
Mark, Rick, Gracie, and Andy are still here. yay.

Ok thanks for your ears. Defintely worth the wait. No?
