Sore-ish throat this morning. That can't be good. And it's not keeping me at home tonight, thanks.

From biblio_filia: The longest trailer ever, starring Tori Spelling gyrating in her underwear, some guy, a random polar bear in a tank, and Cthulhu (not pictured). I think it's a real trailer, but I'm not sure; there really is a Cthulhu movie starring Spelling. I guess I'm not sure because it's just so bad.

Cthulhu is set in Oregon??? WTF? C'mon, all the good Lovecraftian stuff needs to be tied to New England! It's like, a rule, isn't it?

(Miskatonic U 4evah! Go, pods!)

i just wanted to say that i am suprised that you haven't linked anything about the Miss USA debacle. not b/c i am a pageant contestant but the story is pretty big!

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

I did the other day!

[gracefallson-me.livejournal.com]

well my apologies then!

[thatpalechick.livejournal.com]

Did anyone tell Cthulhu about this? Because when he finds out he's going to be pissed. Hopefully he'll go after Spelling before raining down righteous judgement on the rest of the world as punishment for spawning this...this thing.

From the Macaca article:

"In second place on this year's list was "Global Warming Denier," for someone who believes that climate change has moved from scientific theory to dogma."

Jeez, that's not even one word.

And in third place, "Lame List Compiler," for people who dare question the awesomeness of this list.

OK call me dumb or sheltered or whatever, but I'd never heard the word "macaca" before. And despite it being an epithet, it's fun to say. Am I going to hell for that?

[particle-person.livejournal.com]

Before Allen said it, hardly anybody in the US had heard it before. I don't know where he even got it from.

Huh. You know, it had never occurred to me before, but Tori does have the Innsmouth look, doesn’t she?

Hee!

*WAILS!* PLEASE GOD IN HEAVEN TELL ME THAT'S NOT THE ACTUAL TRAILER!!!

"Actress Natasha Lyonne, the star of American Pie accused of threatening to sexually molest a dog, turned herself in at a New York court on Friday."

Wat?!?

[elbales]

That was kinda my reaction, too.

I would also like to mention that I am from Rhode Island, and you do not mess with the Lovecraft. People like worship his grave. Because he was awesome. I was freaked out everytime I had to be in Providence for like a week after reading "The Call of Cthulhu". Oh well, the movie will be terrible and probably no one will see it. Hopefully.

Holy shit. That's the Olive Garden *I* go to! :'(

In other news, note the oh-so-appropriate icon.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Hee!

[erinya.livejournal.com]

Yeah, what the hell was up with those polar bears? And what did any of it have to do with Cthulu? I agree with everyone who has already said that he would not be pleased.

On the other hand, the trailer was sadly hilarious.

Don't you love the Eragon film reviews?

Eragon, he realises, is the first of a new generation of dragon rider and he is
destined to free the whole country. But first he must be persuaded to learn to
ride the increasingly hefty dragon instead of standing round repeating the
question: "Why me? I'm just a farm boy from Carvahall." (http://www.smh.com.au/news/film-reviews/eragon/2006/12/15/1165685866427.html?page=fullpage#contentSwap1)

Cleo, I totally missed your birthday! I hope you had a fantastic day (from your last few entries, it doesn't look like it was too bad)!\

That Beyonce headline made me think there was a female RnB singer Borat emerging.

I am all for "macaca" over Michael Richards' meltdown because who cares if a comedian is out of work? A single word helping to unseat an incumbent senator who was talked about as presidential material before saying that one word and thus changed the control of the US Senate is enough to warrant a win.

Hey,

CTHULHU is a real trailer of the movie with Spelling in it. It's about a Gay college professor returning to his childhood town in New England, starting a tentative romance with a hot guy and falling under the evil manipulations of a Cthulhu cult. The Big Squid apparently does make an appearance at the climax.

The Polar Bear of Randomosity is featured because of its predatory association with the ocean. I have no idea why Tori Spelling is involved- maybe Cthulhu is the reason behind her Non-Euclidean cleavage?!

[zrath.livejournal.com]

Yes, it's true.
The trailer is for a real, low-budget, gay horror movie.
Somebody tell the people at Ohnotheydidnt because I couldn't.
I'm not listed as a friend of that thing, so I can't post.
Elitist jerks... :)

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Wait... if it's a gay horror movie, then why is Tori Spelling gyrating in her underwear?

(Is that part of the horror?)

[aquidis.livejournal.com]

LOL. one of my professors is named jonathan johnson.

Hey Cleo,

I just found this and I thought you and your readers might enjoy this (reminds me of the whole James Bond movie tracks discussion a while ago):

Shirley Bassey sings Pink's "Get This Party Started" for Marks & Spencer's Christmas 2006 advert (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBT88STzSXE)

It's GOOD. It's REALLY REALLY GOOD.
