"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

This all reminds me of a bunch of different Monty Python sketches. The Semaphore Version of Wuthering Heights. David Copperfield as adapted for a parrot viewing audience.

Hee!

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

Yeah. Except that was comedy. We're talking about Art!

Oh crap.

Don't you mean Oh Krapp?

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.

McQueen's last movie was The Hunter, which I only know because of the Drive By Truckers song about McQueen.

A Drive By Truckers reference? I heart this thread.

All is well that ends in pizza.

t was inspired by an actual event, when Admiral Halsey (edit: I think it was him) sailed his carrier task force directly into a hurricane or typhoon or something

I heard he had to have a berth or he couldn't get to sea.

Me? I had another look, and I had a cup of tea, and a butter pie....

Just watched Dodgeball on DVD. Alan Tudyk is a hoot as Dread Pirate Steve.

OMG, I hadn't been over the the Nilly review site in a while. I LOVE the clock counting down the time until the big damn movie.

Ditto.

What he said.

I went to my local music/dvd shop today to buy the box set as a birthday present for a friend (whose birthday is Monday and I left it FAR too late, seeing as how she lives in Scotland, but that's another story). I'd bought my own copy there, and saw it on the shelf last time I went in, so I didn't think I'd have any trouble. It really was my last resort as I'd been all around the city centre yesterday looking for it and no where had it. Which annoyed me in any number of ways, as you can imagine. It wasn't out on the shelf, so I went to ask the guy if they had it. He told me they'd sold out their last two copies in the last fortnight. Which, y'know, great. But, he also started telling me that it was a great show, and did I know about the movie? And that all the staff in the show had bought their own copies and loved it, and had orders in for it constantly. I didn't think I'd ever find Firefly fans in Ireland that I hadn't created. I was so excited I ended up chatting to the guy for nearly an hour. And I still don't have my friend's present. Mixed emotions, to say the least.

Yes, but even as a belated present, you've got a winner, don't you?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Joss posted today in the Whedonesque thread about the Serenity prequel graphic novel. It will be a three-issue mini-series, written by Joss and Brett Matthews, drawn by a guy I don't know but the art looks wonderful. The first one comes out in July, for my birthday.
