First, its nice to meet nice people on the web and have them respond to you kindly and not like you’re some strange stalkery dork who was followed every moment of their lives via their journal. Not that anyone would ever do that. Just sayin’
Have you ever stayed up past your bed time waiting to watch a movie you think is going to be just friggin’ awesome, only to have it suck donkey balls? Yeah, TART starring Dominique “Straight Teeth are Overrated” Swain, this sluggishness is for you! What a bad movie and misrepresented!
For the record, I am Lifetime Television’s bitch. I love those horrible movies of the week. I know they’re awful and trashy and campy. That’s why they’re a guilty pleasure. The joke male comics always tell about “if Lifetime Television is for women why is all their programming based on a woman being terrorized or beaten up?” While that is true more often that not, they’re still fun to watch, and it’s not like a lot of women watch them hoping to get some sort of life affirming inspiration from them. They’re like horror movies. You watch them to yell at the tv and afterwards say; “If that was me, I totally would have left him way before he started sleeping with the babysitter.”
To which the response is always: “No! Y’all don’t know! Y’all don’t know! He luuuuuuuuuuuuuuves me!”
Now, to tie the two previous paragraphs together. I totally thought TART was going to be another In Crowd, which I loved. Lesbian, sailboating teenagers who kill their sisters? Always a plus in my book.
Yes, I know I could have written something better than this today, but its been a long week. Consider this a first draft of a brilliant entry soon to come.
