OW. Owowowowowowowowowowowow. I feel like crap, but then again, it's that feeling-like-crap sensation that I've gotten used to. Of course, it still feels like sometime in the middle of the night, my uterus told my ab muscles they looked flabby, my ab muscles yelled, "Bitch, you're going down!", and the two of them got into a knock-down, drag-out fight while hitting each other over the head with furniture. (Can you tell I've spent the entire morning watching tawdry talk shows? Also, it turns out that if your loudmouthed new girlfriend tells you your old girlfriend is a cheap whore, the odds are that the old girlfriend's baby really is yours. Who knew?)

*sigh* Is it tonight when I can watch The Amazing Race yet? Or tomorrow when I can watch new Lost? Or the weekend? Or Christmas? Basically, any time that's not right now would be nice.

Okay, so, movie trailers ...

The Life and Death of Peter Sellers -- Yay, Geoffrey Rush!

Darkness -- Okay, that's just creepy.

Because of Winn Dixie -- Oh, good Lord, is that dog a Mary Sue? *headsmack* But, hey, Dave Matthews. And the little blond girl is playing Violet Beauregarde in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, so ... yeah.

Ong Bak -- Ooooooooo. Cool.

EDIT: ATHENS, Greece - A group of Greek lawyers angry at the portrayal of Alexander the Great as a bisexual in the Hollywood movie "Alexander" suspended legal action Tuesday after conceding they had not watched the film. -- Oh, God, they really need to start doing that with more lawsuits. "Did you see the book or movie you want banned that you said offended you? No? Then get the hell out of my courtroom."

That Darkness trailer is creepy. And for some reason, there's a "subliminal" message at the end. Unfortunately, it doesn't make sense. Just has "LFOP" in big grey letters. Hm.

1) Ong Bak looks like a cheap martial arts movie that happens to have some impressive stats. To which I say, bring it on. Is there such a thing as a good [i]expensive[/i] martial arts movie?
(But then, I'm still stuck on the fantastic Bruce Lee/Chuck Norris fight from [i]The Way of the Dragon[/i]. No fancy-ass wire-work or high-speed jump cuts for those two REAL MEN)

2) Greek institutional homophobia is a subject of some amusement for much of Cyprus, for a start. For a while - and I don't know if this is still true - it was a government-supported 'fact' that there were no Greek homosexuals whatsoever. None. Not a one. So this kind of knee-jerk getting shot down is solid comedy gold. Thanks.

...see I dunno if I want to guarentee legal rights for people walking somewhere where they intend to be insulted. Then again, they may be surprised. Better they suffer through the mild indignity of paying for a ticket. Just like the rest of us.

1> Don't you wish all the old farts debating your reproductive freedoms got PMS?

2> If Sex is supposed to be a sin, and for procreation only, why is Viagra allowed, when Birth Control is not, given that Viagra always leads to sin, where as Birth Control has a medical use?

My sister took birth control to shrink a cist on her ovary. They will take her reproductive rights over my cold dessicated body,.

It's just an editing flop...it stands for Last Frame of Picture. It's standard in the industry. They just forgot to chop it when digitizing the trailer.

Sorry to spoil the mystery....
