I’m in writing mode. My neglected blog, let me show you it!
Truth be told, I did try to write an entry a bunch of times in the last week, but they all ended up being about how I bought The Invisible without even seeing it just because Justin Chatwin is hot and I couldn’t relate that in a way that didn’t make me look like a tool so I skipped posting altogether. Please don’t ask me what I thought of the movie or I will just get sad and have buyer’s remorse.
But I guess I got what I deserved for objectifying male leads in Hollywood movies.
There is a lesson here for everyone.
Honestly, you deserved better. It’s not like we ask much of them. I say shame on him, and that movie.*
And selfishly, it is good to see you in writing mode.
* You still may find, in time, a certain affection develops, as I have with some of my more impulsive acquisitions – and I wouldn’t be without them.
Ha! BAD Courtney! My anti-spam word was twin! Hmm . . . have I objectified any Hollywood types lately? Hmm . . .
Damon: Truthfully, I like the FIRST half of it. Also it’s okay if I watch it with the mute on. ;)
And just so you know, I AM GOING TO REPLY TO THAT EMAIL SOON.
Danette: I have verily learned my lesson. If you ever feel like buying a movie you haven’t seen purely for the Hollywood lead, that is the first sign you might be objectifying them. If not, you’re probably good to go! :)
True story: despite the fact that your entry CLEARLY says Justin Chatwin, my eyes told me ‘Julie Chen.’ Seriously. I swear to god. And I’m not even currently watching Big Brother! The Chenbot has infiltrated my brain. Zombie-dom to follow, inevitably.
AHAHAHAHA. Omg. That might actually be the first sign of the zombie apocalypse.
