crashers
I was lucky to have an afternoon free last week so I killed time on The Wedding Crashers. I can’t recall ever seeing its trailer, and I guess that helped. I had no expectation whatsoever and surprise!surprise! it turned out to be actually funny. No wonder some critics from the US think this movie saved the summer for Hollywood (or something like that).
As someone once said, "Some things can’t be helped." (^&*$@#&%!!!!!!) So the Crashers had to suffer the "slashers" at the MTRCB, who did a lousy job in editing the movie. There was supposed to be a part there where the mom of the lead gurl (McAdams something) asked the lead guy to touch her breasts.
Here’s a sequence of sorts to give u an idea: guy agrees to meet mcadams outside the house "to get some fresh air" and he said he just needs to change his shoes or something. In the next scene, he looked disraught, saw his friend on the stairs and said told him what naughty mom just did, or asked him to do. (Wow, I’m a lousy story teller).
Anyhows, that surgery was a really bad one. The "cutter" did not even leave some sort of a teaser to actually justify what the lead guy told his friend, and to justify that awful look on his face after the "fondling." Too bad, cz critics said it was a good change of image for Jane Seymour (the mom whose name I obviously remember now :P), who has this boring role of dr. quinn, medicine woman.
oh well, i’m tired of talking about the Crashers.. I just remembered I should maybe ‘blog’ this cz i might forget and it seems to be a really cool thing..
I attended a teleconference yesterday and had a chance to throw one question to INXS bassist garry beers and drummer jon farris.. how cool is that? apparently, these guys are holding INXS Rockstar in search of a lead singer who can do records and go on tour with them. Also in the room with me were a few reporters, Francis Brew of NU107 and Lourd de Veyra of Radioactive Sago Project, who also writes for local mags.
One of them (I’m not sure who cz I have yet to transcribe the tape) said Mig Ayesa is "HOT" hmmm.. well, MiG is this aussie guy who has Pinoy roots.. he lived here till he was two (wow, biggie deal, huh?) anyway, so that’s why pinoys have been rooting for him.. we always love our own, don’t we?
