Since all the girls are going crazy over this movie. My girlfriend is going to see it on opening night as well. There are some days were Sarah Jessica Parker looks good and other where she, well, looks like this.

Check out the movie, I liked the TV show but the movie looks very cheesey. I’ll see it when it’s on cable.
Today is Thursday, which means last night the ‘Big Stink’, a.k.a. the Beast of Nagelonia, brought home this week’s bootlegs, 50 Cent’s “Get Rich or Die Tryin” and Peter Jackson’s “King Kong”.
King Kong
Spoiler Warning: If you don’t know how ‘King Kong’ ends, your a knob.
Peter Jackson is the same dude who made the “Lord of the Rings” movies. Apparently it is standard procedure in New Zealand to make every movie three friggin’ hours long. I don’t normally care how long a movie is, but in this case, I do. You don’t even get to see the Kongster until the end of the second hour, that is, if you are still awake. Good luck, I’d recommend an 8-ball and a Venti. However, once he takes the screen, Kong is pretty amazing. The best parts are the fight scene between Kong and three, what I can only assume to be, Tyrannosaurus Rexi and the scenes with Kong and his bitch (played by some Jude’s wife). The best of these scenes is when Kong reaches down to pimp-slap his trick and she smacks his finger. His reaction is priceless. In the end, the good old US military shoots the sheet out of Kong and he falls to his death, leaving a questionably shallow crater in the street. Not really worth buying, but if you can get a bootleg fast forward to 1:50:00 and enjoy.
Get Rich or Die Tryin
Spoiler Warning: He gets rich.
Curtis Jackson surprises the crowd by acting quite well in his debut movie. He performed way better than I expected anyway. The movie is not Jackson’s life-story, but it is about a crack dealer (Marcus) who becomes a gangster rapper (Young Caesar) after being shot in front of his Grandmama’s house. It should have been preceded by one of those “Law & Order” disclaimers about how “the following story is fiction and does not depict any actual person or event”. Although it is sensationally hyperbolized and includes homage to several real people in the rap/crack game, it seems to all fit together well. There are characters based on Lorenzo “Fat Cat” Nichols and Pappy Mason or Kenneth “Supreme” McGriff, as well as a studio shooting al-a Jam Master Jay’s murder and a rival “fake” rapper from the same neighborhood who has a beef with Young Caesar. There is also a jail scene depicting a prison shower brawl that is not easy to watch. Jackson is supported by an award-winning, or at least award-nominated, cast including Terrance Howard of “Hustle and Flow” fame. If you like rap music, gangster movies, or naked convicts, pick up “Get Rich or Die Tryin”.
What you should really do is get both of these movies, start them at the same time, but watch “Get Rich or Die Tryin”. When it’s over, switch to “King Kong” and you come in right before Kong appears on screen for the first time.
BTW - A third installment of the Caption Contest is coming soon. It will feature Condi, Colin and Rummy. After that, I’ll move on to celebrities and my friends and leave the politicians alone.

I was listening to O&A this morning an caught a few minutes of director Kevin Smith of Clerks and Mallrats fame. Like many of you, his movies gave me a lot of laughs througout the years, as well as some memorable quotes.
Well lunchbox, you are in luck. It seems that he has been shooting Clerks 2, which somehow I was unaware of. It is due to hit theaters later this year. From the looks of the teaser, there will be quite the familiar cast. Even Ben Affleck (who was the bomb in “Phantoms“) makes at mimium a cameo. If you are headed to the theater, avoid the arch-nemesis LaFours, and try not to eat anyone’s shit that is made up of your shit that you made them eat. Snooch to the nooch!
