What happened to the dancer?

she landed wrong but got offstage. it was a solo moment so there was just music and an empty stage (!!!) for approx a minute. and this was opening night. yaow excitement. also, cars got broken into and a man complained to me about "harpies" who switch seats when the lights go down.

those are mediocre harpies at best

wait til you come to a show with me and there are a dozen drunk russian girls tottering around in heels and miniminiskirts. they were the funniest most argumentative harpies ever. i think i might have even detailed this upthread. jesus.

the dancer had to leave in a wheelchair because we don't have any crutches in this whole theater??

Whoa. Also - ouch? Hopefully her injury wasn't too traumatic.

It does sound like jergins' evening was unusual.

jerg – don't you have a crook for removing bad acts?

haha

HOLD ME CLOSER FALLEN DANCER

DONT BREAK INTO MY CAR ON THE ROADWAY

ALL THE HARPIES CHANGING SEATS NOW

holy shit jergins life 4 me pls

not that all your lives aren't awes but cmon harpies and so forth

REGRET THEIR ACTIONS IF ITS MY SAY

good lord, John has fallen into ELTON JOHN mode.

I've never seen this happen before. It could be a symptom of some fancy new disease he has contracted.

(That song has my favorite misheard lyrics of all time, btw:

"Hold me closer Tony Danza
Count the head lice on the highway..."

fallen dived into the sweet embrace of

elton john is AWESOME

I will not argue that he is not awesome; I even went to see him a few years ago (with Billy Joel. DO NOT START WITH ME ABOUT THAT)! Elton John had craaaaay lights going on... kinda hypnotic.

This does not stop me from thinking, "count the head lice on the highway" every time I drive home from school. That's part of what makes me like him!

We're all awesome.

So I was bored and decided to see what the freeway chase in Matrix Reloaded was all about thanks to YouTube. By not having to worry about a plot or Keanu Reeves I was perfectly content.

dammit, that "craaaay" should have had a "z" in it.

(The lights were apparently so CRAZY that I cannot spell anymore)

haha Ned. I kept objecting to watching The Matrix on the grounds of Keanu Reeves. A. finally convinced me by saying that he just "walks around seeming clueless." I haven't been tempted into seeing the other films yet.

Keanu is the weak link in my favorite movie ever, Dangerous Liaisons. Very questionable casting.

I HATE KEANU REEVES SO MUCH

he continues to be in movies i like (my own private idaho, through a scanner darkly) but he diminishes them. it is sad.

yes! that is so true about my own private idaho

he is also a really really nice guy

It's nice to know that you all understand. (I love that argument A. makes, which I've heard a slew of times before, because it's on par with "But Mark Hamill is SUPPOSED to be a whiny nerd," ie, simultaneously perfectly accurate and no excuse at all! But if I was ten or so when The Matrix had come out I wouldn't've cared, I'm sure.)

but i hate him and his stupid keanu reevesness and his stupid keanu reeves face and his stupid stupidness

whoa

Films I will excuse him in -- Bill and Ted, Point Break (for its glorious stupidity, of course -- Reeves + Swayze = gold). Where I finally got off the bus -- Dracula. (That really got me off the bus on a lot of things in retrospect, starting with Coppola.)

This is the difference between John and I: he apparently has the energy to hate Keanu Reeves, whereas I just find him mildly alarming for his crappy acting.

On the other hand, I despise Kirstie Alley and want to smash the television whenever she appears, so maybe we're not so different.

Ned, I think even A. would admit that the argument has a paradoxical quality. But at least he wasn't trying to persuade me that The Matrix would blow my mind and change my life with its brilliant insight or anything. (Because people did make this argument to me, and seriously... NO.)

bram stokers dracula is so awful.

Speed also alarming for having not just Keanu Reeves, but also Sandra Bullock in it. WHY GOD WHY

"Bram Stoker's" Dracula. UGH

I saw that Dracula at Southgate Cinema, and as cheap as it probably was, I wanted my money back. BAD

Actors I hate:

Zach Braff, for reasons predictable and banal
Kevin Spacey, for reasons of Serious Actorliness
Meryl Streep, for reasons of Serious Actorliness

bram stokers dracula is so awful.

It's one of those films where I realized that sometimes cool design/camera style is nowhere near enough. (And sometimes it is, but not here.)

Zach Braff is going to be the new Fletch

Hahah, good lord, I just realized that I saw Dracula in the theater and then two years later saw Tom Cruise swanning around in Interview With the Vampire, and both times I was thrilled to be seeing them. What the hell was I thinking.

man hating on keanu reeves is dumb, he has been in a higher % of totally fuckin awesome movies than most actors his age

poor fletch

Well, the trouble is that the movies would usually be better with someone else playing his part.

look it is a moon no it is something else no wait its a moon EAT SHIT COPPOLA

xpost max no ;_;

i dont know what to say to you weirdos, cmon guys, SPEED + POINT BREAK + THE MATRIX??????????????????? how can you hate a dude in all three of those
