news:blended 5.24 - 5.30By Ed Perkis: 2008-05-31 09:23:54
 I think I may have said this before but I can never be sure if the show was called Sex IN the City or Sex AND the City. I actually made a bet with myself that I had the title right before writing this paragraph. I lost. That’s how little I’m interested in the movie releasing this weekend and the shoes and the consumerism and the whorishness. That doesn’t stop you from being interested or us from covering it in our news section this last week. SATURDAY Let’s play two! Stuff happens. We started off a little slow in the Sex AND the City department on Saturday, focusing instead on boring guy-centric movies like the probable Spider-Man sequels coming down the pike in the next decade. We also looked at pictures from M. Night Shyamalan’s next movie, The Happening. Hopefully crowds will be happening for that movie. After The Lady in the Water, it’s no sure thing. SUNDAY Trying to make movies that someone wants to see…for a change. Does he have his own pipe and slippers? Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the blah, blah, blah brought Harrison Ford’s career back from the dumper. In fact, that’s probably why he relented at heading back to the iconic character; nothing else was working. In that same vein, he is likely going to be hooking up with another old popular franchise character, Jack Ryan, to avoid more debacles like Hollywood Homicide. Robert Downey, Jr. already appears in about 5 to 10 movies a year, so one more, with him playing Hef, doesn’t seem like any more than another log on the fire. MONDAY Out of both Africa and the world in general. The only real story on Monday was the death of Sydney Pollack. He was a true great as a director/producer and even threw in some nice acting work to boot. Josh wrote a nice little tribute and you should read it and then rent Tootsie. TUESDAY No more going back to go forward. I want to suck your blood….after I finish texting Tiffany. The writer/producer of Back to the Future said that there will be no Indy-style return for the 80’s time-travel franchise. I just watched Back to the Future II on cable for the first time in years and I have one thing to say. Thank god. There will be a movie based on the book Twilight, a teeny-bopper Vampire story. Rafe made the mistake of saying that the books don’t have a huge adult audience and several people shot over from another site and told him he was very wrong. So I’ll amend what he said; the books have adult fans, most of whom are at another site and will comment about articles en masse to prove there are at least 15 of them. WEDNESDAY Just say no. Best. Comments. Ever. The beginning of our Sex AND the City coverage was trying to help out guys who might get roped into watching it. No straight man should ever see this movie, so Rafe came up with a few excuses. My excuse is “no way in Hell am I going to see that movie.” The Carrie-fest was overshadowed on Wednesday, by Sharon Stone’s idiotic statement about the Chinese earthquake. The response is overblown, but you HAVE to read the comment section from our story. While it contains adult language, it will have you howling. Best. Comments. Ever. . THURSDAY For women, by women. Trouble is his middle name. It was Cat Fight Thursday as Katey and Kelly tried to decide our most recent Great Debate: “Should Women Like Sex AND the City.” I’m sure it’s an interesting. Since I’m so uninterested in the movie, I didn’t read it, but you should! You shouldn’t, however, see Hancock. That’s according to someone who has seen it and says it’s got a lot of problems. Maybe they will be fixed in reshoots, but the clock is ticking. FRIDAY Don’t be fooled by anything you read. Carrie and men CAN coexist. Friday was all about Sex AND the City. We men got told not to be such vaginas and just go to see the movie already. It won’t kill us and our wives/girlfriends see a lot of bad guy films with us. I considered this position, and then rejected it. No way, no how. Josh did remind us that there is a Sarah Jessica Parker movie that men may actually want to see. Of course, it’s 20 years old, but it does exist guys. That’s all for another week of news blending. It’s like what you get at Jamba Juice, but cheaper and not quite as healthy. If you liked it or didn’t, leave some feedback.
