Heh. Also, you're silly. Tell Emmett that I went to Best Buy to buy Mario Kart but ended up buying Quicken instead. Being an adult sucks sometimes!
Simon: I swear when it's appropriate. Kaylee: Simon, the whole point of swearing is that it ain't appropriate.

I'm not going to tell him that! He'll go apoplectic.

I was going to use mine for a Julia Child roast chicken recipe tonight but I got home too late.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I'm urging JZ to go join you on Thursday as she hasn't seen it on the screen in 3-D yet.
Not that I need a whole lot of persuading.
IOMovieN, Matilda and I are watching Lady and the Tramp again and marveling again (okay, the marveling is mostly me) at the nuanced and witty and endlessly pleasurable performance of Larry Roberts. I still can't believe this is his only big-screen performance -- he spent almost all his life until this movie in LA (tons of stage experience, a tiny bit of television, and many many tours with the USO, but no other movies at all), and then back to Ohio where he was born.

Do eeet!
That way I can return my unwatched Netflix version and get new Oscar blitz titles.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
watching Terminator: Salvation. Man, I'd forgotten all the myriad ways I hated that movie, but I will not apologize for rewinding all of the scenes with Marcus. I actually love that I read so much hate for Sam Worthington, because that's just more for me! (Avatar doesn't do it, because his character only really becomes alive/gets a semblance of a personality when he's CGI).
Oh god, speaking of CGI, I am currently speeding past the Guvanator scene.

JZ, Larry Roberts' mother was mr. flea's next door neighbor when he was growing up in Cleveland. She was very proud of him and devastated by his death (I think he was her only child). She and mr. flea were actually surprisingly close for a women in her 80s and an unrelated teenage boy.

You know, it never ocurred to me that the voice actor wasn't someone famous, but I never bothered to check who it was. It was just such an instantly iconic voice.

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

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