Oh man. I just saw "Reefer Madness," the musical, which was made for Showtime, and will be airing on April 16th, and then again on April 20th. It's totally awesome. It's hysterically funny, it's offensive, it's macabre, it's sweet. There are zombies. But best of all, there's lots of awesome singing and dancing. Alan Cumming, Christian Campbell, Kristen Bell, Neve Campbell, Robert Torti, Steven Weber, and Ana Gasteyer are in it.
You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Dude. I think I developed a thing for Chris Campbell watching Tek War (remember when syndicated Saturday action used to be fun .. hell, when it used to exist?).
I had no idea he was Neve's brother.

He's Neve's brother. Both are pretty, and good dancers. Actually, he didn't do a ton of dancing, but he moved and looked like a dancer, and he spent an extended period of time in only a dance belt. So, it counts.

Hey. New board.
I just saw "Reefer Madness," the musical
Kristen Bell is in that, too! Yay Veronica!
Also, I just got back from the midnight showing of Sin City.
I am well pleased. VERY well pleased.
Considering the buildup I gave the film, this much satisfaction should be impossible.

"It's got to be the hair, Cotton. It's beautiful! Feathered and lethal. You just don't see it nowadays." Pepper Brooks - Dodgeball
I like this quote from the review just linked:
"Sin City is like a must-have coffee-table book for your interior torture chamber."

I was all confused for a second because I was like, "I could've SWORN I mentioned that. I love her!"
There's also a funny song about Shakespeare. A creepy animated song about brownies. And Jesus is awesome, particularly his shiny gold cowboy boots. Oh, and John Kassir is in it (I think that's his name). He's Julie Benz's husband.
Seriously, if you have Showtime, watch it. And record it to share with others who are less fortunate.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
This bit of a review of Sin City cracked my shit up:
...any movie that makes Brittany Murphy palatable must be amazing...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! So true!

Another funny Sin City review excerpt: ""Mickey Rourke blows me away with his acting and Elijah Wood creeps the hell out of me? I swear to God, I don't understand the universe anymore."

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Elijah Wood creeps the hell out of me?
When I was visiting Teppy and SA, we watched Eternal Sunshine. During the first part of the film, when we were still trying to figure out WTF was going on, one of SA's first comments was "Elijah Wood is a sick little fuck, isn't he?"
