Who the f**K let Dukes of Hazzard made $30m?
The Wang spend this weekend in cold-illness, but recovered due to the love of my iPod and the ever caring PSP. Frequently, the PSP would check in on my as I nestled in my bed, and bring me chicken soup or a game of or two of NFL Street. But much bed rest has done the Wang good, cause a warm Wang is a happy Wang.
But between the resting, the Wang did manage to squeeze in two films, one, The Wedding Crasher and second, Broken Flower. Even though the Wang was going for 2046, but bad timing plus a huge line at the Nuart prevented that. So Noble and I went to the 2nd movie of choice, Broken Flower.
Ok but before anything else, *RANT ON* The Wang would like to say that the entertainment industry and the audience of said industry is dead to me… how could crap such as the Dukes of hazard make $30m and own the weekend?
Still, the Wedding crasher featuring, Isla Fisher, was quite funny and entertaining. The overall movie felt like another gathering of the comedy club & friends of Vince Vaughn, where Vince played the role of Vince Vaughn in another comedy. Not that it wasn’t a funny movie, there was just nothing new there. But the presence of Isla Fisher and Rachael McAdams definetly helps the film to be a nice romantic comedy with just enough wackiness.
Then there was Broken Flower by Jim Jarmusch. Unfortunately coming after Lost in Translation and also starring bill Murry, gives it a “copycat feel" to the movie. But beside the underline theme of lonely-ness, I think this movie’s main emotion is actually regret, or choices not taken. Which makes this movie a nice view and a nice thought provoker from anyone that has… a life. And I don’t mean like social life, I meant that they lived, and there were events in their life that leaves marks in the soul. It was a nice theme, just a bit slow with dry humor. Still, some wacky dry humor and Ethiopian Jazz driving montages are just a few of the scenes that drives this reflection story that will make u look at ur own life, and ask the big question of “what if…"
Another interesting entertainment value of Broken Flowers was the trailer to Pretty Persuasion. Starring Rachael Evan Woods. All I can say is Cathloic, School Girls, Sex Scandal, and Selma Blair going, "I'm a little schoolgirl, i dont want Mr. Anderson to spank me." I think those elements have the Wang sold.
new Serenity Trailer. Atleast we can see with the above picture, Inara is getting some screen time, I guess to look pretty. Or maybe it is one of those Eowyn trailer shots that will only show up in the Extended edition.
Kotaku rumors that Blizzard North has canceled their current development of Diablo 3 it’s a shame, many of the Wang’s youth was lost to the Diablo line…
