“Ohhh…Nancy my little commissar, whose your Bolshevik. I dig it when you spend a trillion, it makes me quiver in anticipation. You know my little sugar dumpling, how I like to prance around in my leotard and ballet slippers, but…can I be the man tonight?”
Andrew - I actually had no idea what happened! I signed on a few months ago, forgot to sign on when I posted a comment, forgot my password, and that was it!
Then when I signed on this morning, my computer suddenly remembered the password.

Yes and no. It was nice to see you show up - it's been too long since we've had a nice back and forth on BH.
I suppose I asked the question because, on one hand, I'm a huge Cameron fan and I hate seeing his name dragged through the mud (though I understand the reasons). On the other hand, strictly as an exercise, I kinda wondered, "Oh yeah? What would you guys do?"
Cameron is great when he's wearing his director hat; his writer hat, not as much. The problem wasn't the story; some of the dialogue was just too "on the nose" and I really feel another writer could've given the script a little polish.
Yeah, I don't get to BH much these days because I've been so busy with other things, but I do try to get over there every couple days.
Like I said, I haven't seen it yet, so I can't offer much in terms of specifics -- just a response to what I've seen in the ads and the interviews. I like some of Cameron's work, but some of it stunk.
To me, the big failing is the obvious nasty tone of the humans and the lack of fairness to either side. All the best movies play fair with each side of the conflicts. I don't get the feeling Cameron did that from what I've seen.
Bev, I'll send the maintenance team. I think they just toss virtual saw-dust on our website.

it's like walking in on your grandparents and then realizing that they aren't your grandparents: it's the scary nurse and the gardener in your grandparents' bed!
He's a close-talker.

ReplyDeleteStan, I'm going to have nightmares with Rahm yelling: "Who's your Bolshevik! Who's your Bolshevik!"

ReplyDeleteWhat you need now is an Avatar -- by the way, I see that you're getting a lot of responses at BH today. Any of them useful?
"Hey Nan, I actually got POTUS to use TOTUS for those 6th graders! Our plan is working puuurrrfectly"

Bev, Are you suggesting an palace coup? At attempt to bring down the Big O so that the Big Nan can take over? Now that would be interesting. . .
ReplyDeletePelosi: I see taxes aren't the only thing I can increase...
ReplyDeleteUSArtguy, that's like "Is that a budget reconcilliation bill in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"
ReplyDeleteUSArtguy - EEEEEWWWWWWW!!! Where's my brain bleach, where's the brain bleach????!!??
