| CANADA'S SOURCE FOR HUMOUR, PARODY, AND SATIRE
I think I'm starting to lose it. Once again, when all I really wanted was to go see The Princess Diaries with my childhood hero Julie Andrews, I get talked into seeing The Planet Of The Apes. Doesn't anyone ever do what I want to do anymore? Okay, so forgiving the fact that I had a real attitude when I got into the theatre; it didn't help that the concession was out of Skittles. So already I'm in a bad mood. At least my spring water was cold. Fortunately I had some Crunchy M&M's in my replica Prada handbag. So even before the movie has started, my friend Laurie goes on and on about the original POTA, and how this is supposed to be a "reimagining" of the first movie. Well, all that tells me is that anyone who has enough time to waste thinking about such things needs to "reimagine having a life". I'd much rather be imagining what it's like to find out that I'm a princess of some fashionable European country. And why is Laurie always dictating the choice of our movies anyways? I seem to recall her getting her way when we all went to see the pointless Gone In 60 Seconds. And did I get to see Bridget Jones's Diary when it was my turn to pick? No...I ended up being dragged into Along Came A Spider, and NO, it wasn't about a nursery rhyme. I will admit, that the girls caved in after I begged and pleaded to see Bring It On, a refreshing comedy/drama about the intense and thrilling spectacle of competitive cheerleading. But the rest of the time, Shirley gets drawn into the lobotomy-induced world of action- thriller-adventures. Really, if I wanted to spend my summer watching mindless action flicks, I'd have gotten a boyfriend! Oh just forget it. Now I'm too stressed to even write my review. You've probably already seen it anyways. Here's a plan: why don't YOU send me YOUR review, and then I'll pick it apart for all its pretentiousness. Right now
Shirley just wants to curl up in a ball and listen to her A-Ha albums.
