It was like old times! I was channel flipping until I fell asleep when I happened upon the last half hour of Felony. That was an almost perfect stinker! The only thing that ruined my good mood was, when DW's car is about to crash and for a bit he actually looks frightened for his life. What a shame, to be that good an actor that even a terrible director can't prevent you from affecting the audience! Then Joe Don Baker appeared out of nowhere and things got right back to normal from then on. Has anyone ever hung around for all the closing credits? They list all the product placement companies, I kid you not, including a couple of cigarette and donut producers. I forgot to check who supplied the gum! ;)

I finally saw this movie last month on FX. It's not great, but at least DW is seen for more than two minutes and wears a nice suit. Hey, if I got a paid trip to New Orleans, I'd do the movie. Somebody in an online review said they'd rather watch him eat lunch and snarf his milk, because it would be more interesting. Not that I wouldn't pay to see THAT, but I have a question: What's up with the gum???? The only thing I can think was it was supposed to indicate he was an American. Either that or they wouldn't let him smoke on the set.

I was going to start with "nice suit" but then I thought I'd get tagged with a "tailoring fetish" (to replace the "cyberlush" tag). Now that you mention it, niiiiiiiiiice suit...!
(For those wondering, I've been distracted by some annoying guy at work trying to get me fired, the Howard Dean campaign, and trying to figure out what to do with my site that I haven't updated for forever. We're doing better as a big searchable database, which is fine for my husband but deadly boring for me. However, whenever I did update and link somewhere, that site would pop up to front page results status in Google. I got tired of giving people free topline search engine results. Anyone got an idea of how to freshen up my Warner subsite? Have I missed anything big? I know Company of Wolves was put out on DVD but I'm still PO'd about how it came out. We know the guy who runs that label. I begged him to let me write the liner notes and told him to track down the banned British poster and make a postcard out of it. He conveniently forgot all that and didn't even send a screener until six months after Halloween. When I mentioned it to him on the phone all he said was, "Didn't you read my one-sheet?" That's when I got fed up. All one-sheets have on them are release dates, a price and maybe a usable photo if you're lucky. We really pushed his line when we started out and ten years later he's crabbing at *me* like I'm someone's secretary. That was really the last straw. I have to admit I haven't even looked at the DVD. Sheesh.)
