click...



so...you guys know I came up with the concept for the movie Click about 3 years ago, and first heard of Adam Sandler being involved with a movie with a similar concept about a year and a half ago.

i was kinda pissed....my concept being defiled by adam sandler and company (not that it's the most original concept or anything...but still...somewhat perturbed)

However....it's pretty good.
The most I have enjoyed an Adam Sandler movie since the Wedding Singer. After a run of such poop movies (save for Punch Drunk Love, and some of Anger Management), I'm glad he made another goodie.

.....Like a funny mix of quarky sci-fi with It's A Wonderful Life.Whereas, my movie was more along the lines of a story about men's troubles in dating, this movie sort of tackles the troubles with working and family (albeit a bit trite, but it worked for me here).

And Kate Beckinsale makes my penis melt everytime she appears on screen, and it's got Hasselhoff for the Ladies.

SO far this summer movie 2006 has been a bit fair-good...everything I've seen has been either just kind of fun or mostly enjoyable. Nothing really great yet...but that's ok
quick run down....
Cars I think has been the most dissappointing thus far....but Over the Hedge was very good.
Nacho Libre is funny and actually a really decent quarky film. Definitely worth the money if you like any of the three things involved. Jared Hess, Jack Black, or Lucha Libre Mexican Wrestling.
X3, was hilarious....and I actually really liked it, because of how big and dumb it was....which makes it like..."cool"
MI3...idunno, everyone told me it was going to be awesome, but i wasn't all that impressed....and i still can not get over how i know way too much about tom cruise's personal life, having never sought any of that info out.
I don't remember if I mentioned a movie called Brick awhile ago...which actually could be a great film, but I will have to see it again.
A few others...I don't even really want to mention.

My BIGGEST complaint thus far is this: Where the fuck are all the R-rated comedies I was promised? Last year studios made a shitload of money off of Wedding Crashers and The 40 Year Old Virgin....and NO studio had the balls to want to repeat the success? Pussies.

The only one I'm currently aware of is Clerks 2. And thank you Jesus. Thank you Lord.....and then the Borat movie (which looks fantastic) in late August...but past August 20th, is not summer to me....plus neither will be marketed well enough...but fuck it.

I almost want to say this Click movie is a great one, but i think it will only be great for me, and some other non-film snobs.


So....Superman Returns? I bet there is a controversial gay scene...a phallic piece of kryptonite?

Oh yeah, and why is our president pro-torturing people?
