Return

Both two computers at home have gone into cohorts (one has a cracked screen,the other a slow connection) hence i've taken the effort to drive 20 minutes to my sister's house where Dad's reliable Viao cheerfully obliged to my needs-it's been a pretty eventful week,in which i watched two films that never should have been made:The first was the horribly unfunny Epic Movie (this movie is so incomparably awful it has to be seen to be believed-i can't think of a single good thing to say about it),the second was the overlong,cerebral Bee Season which had me fighting off the urge to sleep the whole way (although this movie did change my perception of Richard Gere-the man's not such a bad actor).There's something strangely enchanting in the new MiuMiu Lindsay Lohan ads (pictured),like the brand new DisneyPark ads featuring big names like Beyonce,Scarlett J & Beckham.And the first ep of Dirt finally finished downloading-coming from the writer of Nip/Tuck (which i was a loyal fan of until the absurdly over-the-top third season came along,followed by the slightly more watchable 4th Season which was the most explicit) i kept my expectations low and in doing so i think i did the right thing-Courteney Cox confidently carries her Lucy Spiller role but the rest of the cast,who play celebrities and paparazzi victims,look and act in pedestrian ways and are totally unconvincing-Dirt's classy soft-porn wrapped with fancy sets and sharp,satirical lines (e.g:''I just came off a little''),and it's almost understandable that a show revolving around Hollywood,tabloids and celebrities to be utterly superficial and insincere but Dirt exceeds that with half of its running time devoted to sex.I guess aside from the target audience (presumably bored,middle-aged housewives and celeb-adoring female teens who make up 90% of tabloid buyers),no one else would fully enjoy this show.I expect it'll be cancelled after a single season.Here's a link to an interesting Oscar-nominated animated short called ''Danish Poet''
