An RT from RT regarding South Park and kids in balloons.

October 15th, 2009 at 08:10 pm
The title is confusing, I know. The first RT means re-tweet, and the second one means Rotten Tomatoes. I’m so clever. Fastness threw out a fantastic observation (http://www.rottentomatoes.com/vine/showthread.php?p=16146699&posted=1#post16146699)...

  • Review: The Twilight Saga: New Moon (Chris Weitz, 2009)
    Before I begin writing any sort of review for The Twilight Saga: New Moon (Chris Weitz, 2009), I would have to give my history with the franchise. I was peer pressured to read the entire series just when it started to become popular, and as I finished the first novel, I...

    If this has happened to you, it is either because 1. you deserve it or 2. it was an accident and for that I apologize. Picture example from Nathaniel’s Facebook, who I did not and will not delete, but his profile is the one I just happened to be on. VN:F [1.7.8_1020]please...

  • Can the kiddies have tacos now, Kathy Knecht?
    Allow me to take the time to rant and rave about my high school (good golly gosh I’m so young), by stating obvious things that everyone has been talking about for months via Facebook, or in one case, just today. Towards the beginning of the year, there was a big push...

  • Pat Robertson transitively calls his religion a fascist group.
    It’s a big worry over whether or not a backlash towards Muslims in the military is erupting after the Fort Hood shootings, which were initiated by a Muslim. But naturally, the influential Christian ball of nuttery pat Robertson is saying that Islam “is not a...

  • Fox inevitably tears down the dollhouse.
    Tonight has been a night of cancellations, with ABC axing Eastwick (which is better than the abysmal Cougar Town that comes on before it) and Hank, that Kelsey Grammar sitcom stinker. Good riddance to that one. But the one that matters is Fox getting rid of Dollhouse, which...

    The trailer and the poster are both solid for A Single Man, but I don’t feel they’re as good as I’m imagining this movie to be. They speak for themselves though, so I might as well not dwell on talking about them for a while, other than what has already...
