I didn't think that it was possible for someone to NOT know who William Goldman was... I mean... come on people: The Princess Bride!!! He wrote the book, he wrote the screenplay... he created the characters and all of the puns!! It's not possible.

However, that was when I learned that the same person had never heard of the The Princess Bride, to which I then yelled, "INCONCEIVABLE!!" but they just looked at me like I was crazy. Why? Because they didn't know the Princess Bride and thus did not get the fabulous humor. So... I made them watch the movie and guess what? They didn't like it... they laughed, certainly, but they thought it was a bad movie.

MEMO TO THE MASSES: Yes! The Princess Bride is a bad movie... it was made in the glorious years of corney comedy!! that's what makes it priceless!! It's so slapstick and goofy that you cannot help but love it! Stop judging all your movies as if they are supposed to win academy awards!! The Oscar is not a big deal... it's a short, gold statue of a bald man that is probably filled with chocolate!! Movies... are for enjoyment!!

So many people have forgotten what it was like to go and sit down for about two hours... and just turn your brain off! To not think, or bother, or worry, or fret, or JUDGE anything... for TWO... WONDERFUL... GLORIOUS HOURS!! That's what a good movie is. It makes you laugh... it makes you excited... and it takes you away from reality. You need nothing more from a movie. They don't have to question the "human condition" or "create believable characters". I don't watch movies to see "believeable"!! I want vampires, talking robots that become cars a third their size, or flying spaceships with little flipping, lightsaber wielding midgets!! That is the kind of entertainment that makes Hollywood the "Tinseltown" that is always has been...

Freaking Academy Awards have deluded the masses into looking for "art" in a medium that is supposed to be ENJOYMENT!

Get off this kick and go turn your brains off... and have a nice day!!

Word of the day is: controversy -- why someone says something that sparks a substantial feeling of something in another someone to where they say something in return to substantiate their subliminal feelings of something or other... which somehow turns into a superlative arguement among which some people somehow begin yelling or throwing insufficient means of "wordplay" at one another... until someones sufficiently smaller feelings are hurt... and thus... someone gets punched in the face!

Hooray for controversy!!
