Hi. My name is Alex. Not the Alex that runs this wonderful site, but a different one. You may know me as Junior. The other Alex (old Alex as I will now call him) asked me to put up a couple of posts while he was chillin’ with his family.
A few things about me before we get started:
- I am a 19 year old male
- I go to college for engineering, but I will switch to something that is not dumb next semester
- I work with Lynch on Watch This Vid.
- Old Alex gave me the Junior nick name when people got confusicated on the Filmspotting boards.
Ok. Thats enough about me. On to the actual post…
I am not a movie snob, but I like to watch a lot of movies. I do not have very refined tastes but I like what I like. So, here is something that I like. Or, at least I like the trailer. Its called Grindhouse.
I’m dumb and don’t know how to use this fancy technology, so just go here to see the trailer. Sorry…
I know Old Alex doesn’t want to see this movie. He said it was for dumb straight people, and the leg is stupid. “Well”, I responded, “it probably is for dumb straight people, but since I am both, it will be awesome. And the leg gun is the best idea ever. Ever.” Since his feelings on this subject are so wrong, I felt it was my duty to present it here for your consideration. Consider it presented.

My feelings about Grindhouse were best expressed by Postmodern Barney when he wrote about the trailer.

Grindhouse: No. Just because you Tarantino and Rodriguez grew up on sh*tty movies in the seventies is no excuse to make more.

So Alex (2). How is your hair? Is it starting to fall out?

You know? I might see this.

My hair is starting to fall out. Well, there is at least 10 hairs left over on my towel after I dry my hair. But I do have unusually thick hair. It’s good stuff.

Well, you know Alex (2) does not come of as particularly angry… maybe he is, but it doesn’t show (are you Alex (2)?)… so I thought he went to other route to fit the bill… if you think that’s offensive Alex (1), change the name of your blog into something nice like: “Fluffy blog about those nice and constructive thoughts I had today while looking really sharp and doing all the amazing stuff you wish you could, with occasional rants on politician because they don’t have such radiant looks as me, I mean have you seen that Chávez guy, he’s not good looking… plus random issues I think somebody should do something about like that cute polar-bear baby they what to kill, which btw is a total scandal… but the bottom line is everything is nice”-Blog … where was I? oh, nevermind… what are you doing here anyway, why aren’t you with his family, Alex (1)?

I can get angry, but I was in more of a peaceful mood when I wrote it. Maybe I should only write after watching reality tv for a while, that would get me mad…

No menstrual blood? Your controversies are so male dominated… Alex (1).
Alex (2), on second thought, being angry and bitter is not that desirable. And you’ll have lots of time to do that once you’ve passed 30, so better not force your anger by watching “Super Sweet Sixteen”, or whatever that show is called… but totally unrelated they should bring back “Supermarket Sweep” with razorblades…
