i have never seen repo man.

(don't hurt me!)

oh, by the way, i showed up to class tonight and suddenly we had 3 guest speakers and i didn't have to do my oral presentation, which is awesome except for the fact that i was working on it til 2:30am last night.

Will you now have to review and polish your oral presentation more? I have also never seen Repo Man.

I only watched the debates during Project Runway commercials.

i will watch project runway tonight (can't wait!) while procrastinating hw due tomorrow by 6pm (why 6pm and not midnight when we all have full time day jobs???). i have received hints as to who won, but i am trying to ignore them!

yes, now i will have to review this oral presentation again before i eventually present (this is like the 3rd time i was supposed to do so and i made the powerpoint as a refresher/thought i should make it look good since it kept getting put off).

i have received hints as to who won, but i am trying to ignore them!

I'm glad I didn't spoil it then!

me too! :D

i am not feeling the whole work thing today. can i just stay home and sleep?

YES

note: people in actual athority on these matters rarely listen to someone named "sanjay blogdai sanjay"

Final evil quiz tonight! Test on Monday. Clinical tomorrow. My book is making me blind, btw.

I did watch the debate, though, for the lolz, and the occasional power naps. I really don't like that John McCain guy.

but he's a war hero!

i have never seen repo man.

Correct this immediately. It is one of a handful of films that accurately depicts LA.

for someone reason it just doesn't seem interesting to me.

I've also never seen Robocop, the Terminator, Titanic, or Raging Bull. Probably some other stuff as well.

Robocop is totally worth seeing. The others have more "cultural literacy" points attatched to them, but the movies themselves are eh.

I have not seen Repo Man, either. New life goal?

id forgotten all of the fantastic scenery related jokes - obv the generic everything, the can of "food", but also the fact that the shrimp plate speech is followed up much later with the ad for $2.99 plate of shrimp in the background in the supermarket. the (unidentified other than the credits) circle jerks as a lounge band and otto saying that he can't believe he used to like these guys in response.

i think this is a movie where the setting and the details and the inside jokes with casting are more important than the actual dialogue and plot. so so great.

LETS DO SOME CRIMES

What he all said.

Also I just love how the film is an amazing X-Files parody, filmed a decade before said show began.

Okay, I added it to my Netflix queue, so sometime before I'm 78, I should get to that...

I will watch it this weekend. I'm sure it's in my better half's dvd collection which incongrously combined with mine when we moved in together.

This weekend I'm going to finish watching The Nightmare Before Christmas. I finally saw the first half hour earlier this week and loved it. I'm not sure why, but I was really surprised by that. I should listen to my kids more often.

One of the best movies evah!

god i still need to sign up for netflix. i bought a bottle of wine to help me with homework tonight because i am not in the mood. not one little bit.

i finally got round to watching the nightmare before xmas, last year after someone told me the main character is based on billy corgan (<3 u billy, you jesus freak), but i was kinda disappointed by it.

as a rule, i don't like musicals. i don't know why.

oh wow me either.

me either!

neither?

me no good with english no mores

but tza i thought you were like a musical freak?!

i just find song sequences, especially more than one, really irritating in movies.

remember when tv shows were doing musical episodes? there was a whole lot of 'change the channel!CHANGE THE CHANNEL!' going on in my house back then.

not musicals. i like opera. classical. other stuff. most musicals don't do it for me. i am seeing lots of theater stuff because i have access and why not when it's free? but in general, i would not choose to go see them. (this may be why my first broadway experience was like, march of this year). did i mention i am seeing mary poppins on sunday? this i am kind of excited about because of nostalgia, etc.

funny, i guess i just conflated your love of opera etc. into a love of all things theater-y/musical!!

it's totally understandable, and i do talk about theater/musicals a lot because i'm involved with them/their people a lot. i used to get really pissed at my undergrad school though, because my program was NOT a musical theater program, but over the course of my 4 years, they increased musical theater programming for our productions a TON, which made me angry because those were roles i had no interest in doing (aside from mrs lovett which i did not get :( ). woah runon.

kurt weill & brecht vs gilbert & sullivan vs rogers & hammerstein &/or hart

vs. lerner & lowe

i don't really think the first group all belong in the same category.

This is where I mention my appearance in The Music Man in 11th grade is on videotape.

But NOT on YouTube.

Yet.

there is a video of me as a pirate (male pirate) in community theater production of peter pan. what.

nor is mine as 'jerome' in south pacific, age eight, singing 'Dites-Moi' in a speedo wrapped in coconut fiber for the local community theater

also: me as nana/the crocodile in peter pan, rolling across the stage on my belly on a skateboard, sporting major ... err, inappropriate cloaca after becoming agitated by the sight of (female) 'michael' changing into her second act costume.

omg.

also missing: my role as macheath in three penny opera, as the only actually evil nazi in sound of music, and as a pirate in a truly terrible version of pirates of penzance

thx to sara r-c i do have dvds of dan, FB and I in west side story and joseph and the amazing technicolor dreamcoat.

3 penny opera was awesome. the others, not so much.

kudos

yeah that is sort of unbeatable

"agitated"

xp John will not admit it, but I'm sure he was the cutest little Nazi ever!

God, I am up way too early.

my role as macheath in three penny opera

Now there is a role to play, we did this at school but I never even got to do tech on it. (I did very good lighting for LA Nozze di Figaro, Zauberflotte and Amadeus, though)

bah, West Side Story was great

I'm in about a 2 seconds of a youtube clip from a production of Ernani from earlier this year.

Check out the far right at 2:37! woot famous
