Superman Returns was a delightfully entertaining movie. I ventured out of my cave apartment this evening to go see Superman Returns with Emitt. As soon as Emitt sat in my car on the way to the movie his pants ripped… I giggled and then he informed me it wasn’t very funny since he was sans-underoos. So I offered up a pair of boxers for him and he graciously accepted.

Once we got to the theatre we had to stand in line at the concession booth since we couldn’t hit the Circle K up for snacks since Emitt had to put on undie-pants due to his tear. I managed to get us in the line with the person at the counter who was just slightly above RETARDED on the intelligence scale. Back in my days as web-bastard/database-dork at the school district he would have been placed with someone Human Resources would have called “Educable Mentally Handicapped” cause he was just plain slow and stupid. Urgh.

But we got to the theatre right on time to miss the commercials pre-show countdown and watch the commercials previews. Only preview of note was the SPIDERMAN preview which I had already downloaded and watched today. Everything else looked like crap.

The Superman movie itself was pretty nice! The new Superman gives us superwood and Lois Lane’s fiancé is none other than Cyclops from the X-Men movies (I must say, I liked his performance in this movie much better than his appearance in the last X-Men movie, and no, it has nothing to do with the fact that his name is Richard in this movie). Kevin Spacey was delightfully campy as Lex Luther and OMG I had no idea that PARKER POSEY (OMG! HOT!) was in this movie!! YAY!!!

Ok folks, I’m in a quandary:  Snuggle vs. Cuddle.

Which is more platonic?  A cuddle or a snuggle?  Or are they equally balanced?

Today is National HIV Testing Day but you wouldn’t know it by going reading CNN, NY Times, Wall Street Journal online, LA Times or the Arizona Republic’s web page. The only ‘hiv’ on their webpages is in the word archive.

(Oh and I’m not really in Atlanta, I just needed something to put in the title..)

Tonight I waged war with a pizza…

…I was merciful and did now allow it to suffer for long.

Pizza Gooooooooooooooooood

Tonight Emitt and I went to go see Pixar Animation Studios Cars and it was a LOT more enjoyable than I expected. When I first saw the previews for a movie about animated cars I thought it would be a yawner. I should have known better, since the fine people at Pixar have yet to send a bad movie to release.

I think the best parts of the movie were the “schlocky OMG over-the-top super-cheesey” bits and the INSANELY funny credits. Even with the cheese, Pixar NEVER leaves any minute detail un-checked. Condensation trails in the sky look like tire treads - the little buzzy insects look like old VW bugs… the giant rock outcroppings from the desert look like old cars.. its just amazing. Then there were all the inside jokes that only people over 5 feet tall would get too.. I love it.. I’m totally going to see it again.

But seriously folks, stay for the entire credit reel. I laughed the hardest DURING the credits.. CRAZY!

THIS, ladies and gentlemen, is why I do not answer my door when someone knocks on it. (Tho I do run to it and look out the peep hole and giggle.)

Please note: This contains two deer, one giant puma complete with two white children petting it, 5 brown skinned people working in the fields, moo cows, flowers, some (probably brown but they’re too far back to see) people building a BARN or something (like the Amish) and two NYPD policemen with funny-spartan-looking-ridges (poorly) drawn onto their helments.
