Look! Icon!

Because damn it, someone had to make it.

So anyways, tree220 and I went bowling tonight with our bud Mikey. Mikey is a very good bowler, while tree220 and I ... well, we're not. I'm pretty sure I established tonight that this is not one of the sports I'm any good at. So that means the list of sports I officially suck at now includes archery, badminton, baseball, basketball, bowling, boxing, bullfighting, camel racing, cricket, croquet, curling, cycling, dodgeball, dogsledding, fencing, football, golf, gymnastics, hockey, kickball, lacrosse, luge, paddleball, polo, racquetball, the rodeo, rowing, rugby, skating, skiing, snowboarding, soccer, softball, squash, surfing, tennis, tug-of-war, volleyball, waterskiing, and wrestling.

Which leaves billiards and universal frisbee. And also making fun of stupid people, but until that makes the Olympics, I'm shit out of luck.

Also, I dyed my hair red again. Ah, another dye job, another go at making the bathtub look like the aftermath of a successful suicide attempt.

And hey, look! It's the "Day After Tomorrow" trailer! I know any movie featuring Dennis Quaid, Ian Holm, and Jake Gyllenhaal can't be all bad, but this is me we're talking about here, which means that most of my anticipatory glee stems from the fact that this movie can be summed up with the phrase, "Wheeee! Everybody DIES!" I'm way too entertained by the catastrophic deaths of large groups of people.

ooh I just saw a preview for Day After Tomorrow, and wee everyone dies movies are one of my favorites. (I fear my friends now think I'm nuts)

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

I still want to make a tank top that says, "What this planet needs is a good, old-fashioned apocalypse." With the "apocalypse" written Buffy-style. And wear it around DC during a terror alert. 'Cause I'm just that twisted.

As for "Day After Tomorrow", you know what I like about the trailer? It makes it look like either there's nothing they can do to stop what's happening or that they're too late to do a damn thing. I like that. I want to see a movie where everything gets royally screwed up and there's not some ragtag team of pilots/soldiers/scientists/oil drillers coming in to save humanity.

You *SO* need to make those shirts and set 'em up at Cafe Press. I'd buy one....

[wtfbrain.livejournal.com]

Can I make it into an icon instead?

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Whee! Thank you! *shags you senseless*

I like the shirt idea.

Yeah it would be nice to see a movie where they can't fix everything. Thats been done way to many times. It'll be nice to see one where they're all like oh shit we messed up and we can't fix it.

[wenchamok.livejournal.com]

Can I steal your icon? I've been wanting a Hidalgo one with that phrase ever since I walked outta the theater....

[kirana-44.livejournal.com]

sure, just give me credit, I made that one right after I got back from the movie.

[wenchamok.livejournal.com]

Will do. Thanks!

Holy cow, I was JUST looking at the D.A.T. trailer today. I looove Dennis Quaid and disaster movies, so I'm going to be the first squealing fangirl in line for this one! Everybody dies indeed...that's what makes for entertainment!

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

It came on right before "Hidalgo", and I had to keep from squealing out loud. I do so love my "We're all going to die in a calamity" movies.

Dennis Quaid is an added bonus. Meg Ryan? Is a moron, plain and simple.

[frogmajick.livejournal.com]

Meg and he had a good thing going back during "Innerspace", but I've only really liked her in a couple films where the ONE charcter she plays is called for (When Harry met Sally and Youv'e got Mail, in case you're curious). I liked When a man loves a woman, but I couldn't get over the fact it was Meg Ryan, so her performance really lacked something believable.

Dennis, well, for that smile I will gladly overlook a cheesy Nawlins accent or even a silly rehashed Disney script. I just like him a lot.

I am thrilled that there is no averting the disaster. I like the scene of them snow shoeing past the Statue of Lberty's snow covered head. But I hope it has a strong enough script that I will care about Dennis saving Donnie Darko from an icy NYC. It's a summer formula blockbuster, so I'm sure I'll care *enough*.

You know, they now show bridge and poker tournaments on the sports channel. *wink*

What on earth is universal frisbee?

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Like soccer, 'cept with a a frisbee. We used to play it in gym class all the time. I was actually pretty good at it ... well, except for the time I ran into one of the jocks, flew backwards, and slammed my head against the hardwood floor. That kinda sucked.

I like to see when mother nature hits back. It's her way of saying, "No, puny humans, you are not THE SHIT. I'm the shit and I've got a big fan too!"
