Because damn it, someone had to make it.

So anyways, [livejournal.com profile] tree220 and I went bowling tonight with our bud Mikey. Mikey is a very good bowler, while [livejournal.com profile] 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.

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!

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.

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*.
