RIP Patrick Swayze

Nash here chiming in to send our condolences to the family of Patrick Swayze. When I was seven years old I remember two of my second-grade classmates telling me about how they had small pictures of him that they kept. This is vaguely creepy to me now, considering we were between seven and eight years old and he was what? thirty-six? Yeah. But anyway, never wanting to miss an opportunity to appear cooler than I clearly was, I lied with a "Oh yeah. Patrick is awesome. Me too, I have his picture too." Liar, liar pants on fire.

Rest in peace Patrick. And remember, no one puts Baby in the corner.

Why did I listen to that dude at Hollywood Video?

So this is Young here. Our movie reviewing won't be limited to in the theater releases. That said, I was in Hollywood Video last week, minding my own and scanning titles when a helpful and overly enthusiastic employee noticed me looking at the cover for Miss March. He went on to tell me what a gem this movie was and that it was the funniest movie of the year next to the Hangover. I assumed that Dude, being a young 20 something slacker working in a video store, most likely saw a lot of good movies and made the assumption that he had good taste.

Also, loving the Hangover, I was immediately interested in seeing Miss March.

That brings me to today, I start streaming Miss March and it is terrible. Lot's of dick and fart jokes which I generally love but the writing and acting is not at all clever or well timed. It actually reminds me of Dumb and Dumberer in many ways (not the original with Jim Carey but the piece of shit sequel). The movie was completely unnecessary, because American Pie did over a decade ago and with talent and creativity.

The only saving grace was the typically brilliant performance of Craig Robinson (of The Office fame) as the ironically titled character of Horsedick.mpeg.

Everyone else involved in the making of this movie should banned from not just making a movie, but from filming a wedding video or even holding a camera for that matter ....and I promise I will never take advice from anyone working at Hollywood Video again. Dude would probably compare Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen to Taxi Driver.

How it started

Hi this is me, Nash. My husband, Young, and I would like to tell you about the movies we're watching, what we like, what we don't and just about anything else.

Welcome.
