(This didn't go through the first time, so I am
modifying the spelling of a peculiar word that might be the reason.
Warning! Meteorite related; Levity alert.)
Hello Listees:
Saturday night I somehow ended up in the movie
theater. It was a craps shot: too late for anything with an interesting
title. There was this Uma Thurman flick "My Super Ex-Girlfriend"
playing. It recently opened, always a delayed in Mexico vs. USA and
Europe. I hadn't ever heard of it and just crossed my fingers that it
would net more of a hug from my girl than an energized sock in the
face, based on the possibly ominous or maybe juvenile
title.
My Super Ex-Girlfriend (Mi Super
Ex-Novia)
The joke was on me in an big, irony way.
This "romantic" spoofy-goofy comedy from Hollywood is all about
meteorites and cks. As a movie, I'm sorry that can't recommend it
(despite the latent acting talents). But: If you happen to have a
girl or guy interested, or who you would like interested in your space
rocks, take the 50's horror-flick attitude and go for it. It's a movie
about a nerdy girl that was influenced by a bolide she saw in 11th grade, a
moment before consummating her first encounter at lovers' point. I
won't completely spoil the plot, but you can expect this: A sophomoric view on
women and cks, women get sweet revenge; meteorites, super-heroines, dorks;
belligerent bragging buddies on the prowl - plus a delightful supervisor at
work.
Meteorite scenes:
The bolide enters and crashes to leave no
noticeable crater, leaving a mass of flaming pumice rock that explodes
on Uma Thurman.
(It's later implied to be an iron meteorite so this
is somewhat ignorable).
The bad guy experiments on the properties of
meteorites - mostly with a saw.
The bad guy keeps a big Campo(?) in the
refrigerator next to the ham and beer.
The male protagonist makes up with Uma Thurman
offering meteorite as the focus of the night - wrapped up as a
present.
(which is about a foot and a half in diameter
(45cm) but is probably carried around under one arm with the
roses.)
Everyone lunges to get a piece of the
meteorite.
Guys generally loose the meteorite frenzy and go
have a beer while the girls do their thing.
Cks after touching a meteorite ... I'll keep this
PG. The movie is PG-13.
I wonder which one of you sold them the Campo...and
my girl now just won't stop rubbing in "I know why you're into meteorites"...
Now I'm thinking I'd rather've settled for a sock-in-the-face inspiring romantic
comedy, but at least I couldn't fall asleep on this one.
I've overdosed a bit posting, so I promise to
moderate from now on...
Best wishes,
Doug |
