Mike Myers wants to turn it around and pull the serious bit, playing Keith Moon, former drummer of the Who in a full fledged biopic? Could that question have been longer? Yes! And rock on, Mr. Myers!

I think it's a great move. I think everyone would agree with me when I say that I'm tired of hearing his Scottish accident as a certain green thing, and I'm tired of seeing the four-eyed spy all over the place. Granted, he's still doing voice over work for Shrek 3 but for the money he's getting for that, I would, too.

You can't hate Mike Myers. Sure, his characters get old as hell, but as much as he shoved the character Austin Powers down America's throat, he created Austin Powers with his own bare hands. And you know there was a time that we all loved Austin Powers. Don't deny it. And if you never liked the character/movie, well, you're just special, aren't you?

And you can't hold Cat in the Hat against him. He got sued by Universal because he refused to make a shitty Sprockets movie. The only way he could get out of that movie - which definitely would've sucked, it's not that great of a character and does NOT belong in a movie - was if he did Cat in the Hat. He was put in a corner, folks. He was haunted by the film as much as you or I. Him, even more so, I'm sure.

I, for one, welcome Mike Myers to spread his wings into Keith Moon territory. Go ahead Mr. Myers, make us proud.

The Frankenstein Legacy Collection would not have been bought had it not been for a class. I watched the original Frankenstein today for the first time in probably ever and I did not enjoy myself. I mean, I guess it was okay. But seriously, there was nothing to the monster!

Now when I was about 10-12 years old, I got a whole bunch of those rewritten novels that were the big classics like Frankenstein, War of the Worlds, David Copperfield, etc but they had pictures and were a fraction of the size. The Frankenstein one, which is the only version of the book I ever read, I thought was awesome.

And I just remembered! In eighth grade, I read the real thing in its entirety and I loved the original book, too. Now I knew the movie was nothing like the book. All these reviews and everything went on to say "it captured the mood, the tone of the original. It is a faithful adaptation in that it keeps the theme alive." The fuck it does. This is quite possibly one of the worst adaptations EVAR. In my opinion anyway, which is not humble. I could go on to why I think that, but the subject depresses me. I'm just glad I can justify the thirty dollar purchase by saying "school necessities."

So now I'm stuck with this balls-to-the-wall D-DVD. It contains FIVE Frankenstein films: the original, Bride of, Son of, Ghost of, and House of Frankenstein. Plus, I already own Young (of) Frankenstein. Will I ever watch them all? ::shrugs:: ::how do these "::" mean action, by the way:: ::and in the last case, a thought...and in this case, a post script::

With six Frankenstein films in my grasp, I can hold a hardcore Frankenstein marathon. Wow, that would be a terrible idea. Well, off to the shelf it goes! Never to be seen or heard from again.

Back on track.

I've broken the cherry on Minimum Security. 5 pages in and it's feeling good.

There's something strange about watching the first episode of the American version of The Office. And the strangeness, this shit-ass deja-vu, comes only after having seen the British version first.

It is like an alternate dimension. Never before have I felt like I've experienced that. Actually watching a bizarro world. That is what watching the American version is like.

In case you didn't know (which you probably do [unless you didn't {but you might} shut up inner parenthesis {make me} I will! I'll just close my box and then you'll be done for! {You don't have the balls} Oh yea? {Yea, asshole}] Hey! Shut the fuck up out there! [...sorry {yea, sorry.}]) the first episode is 90% the exact same as the first episode of the British version. It's crammed in a little more and a few reference things are changed but for an enormous amount of the most part, it's exact! Line for line! It's so weird.

Needless to say, I didn't watch beyond that episode. That's all I needed to see. Whether or not it's good, I'm not really the one to ask. I'm jaded by the original. You would need to ask someone who's never seen it. Frankly, I think the comedy really missed the mark in most cases. Steve Carell was okay at some points and you can tell he was trying his best to make the character his own but that's hard when you have the SAME dialogue and they want to shoot it all exactly the SAME.

Anyway, disasters aside, I plan on holding a Coloring Book Social on my floor. Of course, I'm not holding it to socialize. I have ulterior motives, if that is how you spell that.

My plan is to start the sequel to "K93128" at this Social of Coloring Books. It will be fanta-astically excellent.
