Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The Ring was pretty, and suitably scary. But when I watched it a second time, I kept on thinking, "Wait, this doesn't make sense."

The scene with the dead girl coming out of the TV set was cool and creepy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Which bits fell apart for you, tommy?

The entire killing of the boyfriend horrified me the most. Oh, and anything involving fingernails. I have a bit of a squick there. And the horse, too, I guess, though I read people found that funny.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I guess, though I read people found that funny.

I was one of those people. Liked the rest of the movie, though. A friend of mine thinks it falls apart because it never explains how Samara is doing any of this, which I think the original one goes more into. She would love it were it not for that. Actually, hold on, she devoted an entire website to it.

Oh and apparently the next Superman flick has lost another director.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

This is a really obsessive Ringu/Ring website, which (among other things) compares the cinematography of Ringu and The Ring. It's chock full of creepifying pictures.

Anyone posted this? It's an interview with the cast of Anchorman, where they all just lie and shit.

QUESTION FROM THE PRESS:What do you think you can teach Nicole Kidman about comedy? (The Oscar-winning actress is co-starring in "Bewitched.")

Ferrell: Uh. You know. I'm not really familiar with Nicole Kidman as an actress. I've heard that she's done some great stuff. And I hear that she's got a cute little rear end on her.

QUESTION FROM THE PRESS: Christina, have you ever experienced sexism in Hollywood?

Applegate: No, I don't find it. The casting couch thing is a normal thing, right? I mean,that's what we do to get jobs.

Koechner: That's not sexism. We all did it.

Up with the sun

The Ring is really, really really fucking scary. It's as scary as the Exorcist.
