B at the movies

Happy B'day!!

Who is it?

It's Be!

It's Be who won the Bet award for female R&B Artist and Video of the Year for Single Ladies (Put a Ring on it). And she's gorgeus in that Balmain. She should be nominated for a Best actress Oscar for Obsessed (ehem...).

Thoughts I had while watching Obsessed

1. They don't waste any time. Main characters are introduced under three minutes

2. Worst hair choice for Beyoncé since The Fighting Temptations (The best was Austin Powers of course).

3. Are gay characters still portrayed like this in 2009?

4. Are female characters still portrayed like this in 2009?

5. Are characters in general still portrayed like this in 2009?

6. Ali Larter is pretty.

7. Ali Larter's hair is always perfect.

8. Ali Larter looks a little like Naomi Watts when she smiles while crying.

9. Ali Larter's chin is slighty longer than usual chins.

10. Bruce MacGill!! He had a gay puppy in Legally Blonde 2!!

11. Reese Witherspoon has a special chin as well.

12. I hope detectives like that one don't exist in the real world. The crazy lady who worked two weeks for you knew your name THEREFORE you slept with her. Oh, these flowers are beautiful THEREFORE you are not crazy, lady.

13. I hope babysitters like that one don't exist in the real world. Oh, you put a phone up to your ear THEREFORE it's O.K. for you to be here, come on in, kidnap the baby I'm babysitting...

14. Why do they keep calling the detective? She's obviously out buying flowers.

15. I love the monkey that wrote this script.

16. OMFG, the gay character is back to spread some more gossip, and he doesn't even get stalked. So unfair...

17. Beyoncé is actually growing as an actress. Wait, she just looked like she was shot when she forgot her purse. I said nothing.

18. Yay, the fight is about to start, Ali Larter is touching everything maliciously...

19. That fight was a little Tex Avery-esque (not my thought but Davigüi's).

20. Thank God (i.e. Beyoncé) we already knew the movie was crap. We had a great time! It's hilarious...

Opening 19th June / Prejudices without Pride

It's been ages since I've been in a movie theater (since Coraline), but the rare conjunction of exams and not-so-interesting films has wanted it that way. Will the openings of this weekend change my DVD dependance? Let's see:

1. Zack and Miri make a Porn: This looks fun and Elizabeth Banks is so lovely... Probably seeing it.

2. Cher Ami: Spanish animation based on WWI (!?). This is too much for me. Not seeing it.

3. Inkheart: I haven't read Cornelia Funke's books (but I have an edition of The wizard of Oz which is introduced by her) but I tend to dislike youth-books made youth-films. Not seeing it.

4. New in Town: What is going on with Renée Zellweger? She used to be so cool (stop laughing Deivith!). Chicago, Cold Mountain, Down with Love... Why is she playing this Kate Hudson role?!?! Not seeing it.

5. Le premier jour du reste de ta vie: French drama about a family (Il y a longtemps que je t'aime 2?). Looks kinda good. Maybe seeing it.

6. Obsessed: I know it's bad. But it's BEYONCÉ. And if Beyoncé was in The Pink Panther 3, you'd see me down at the movies, waiting to go in. I'm OBSESSED with BEYONCÉ. Seeing it.

Not a great evening but it's almost end of exams so I'm loving it!!

Like May Water (June)

June is the month of the ladies saying it all with the eyes...

wether they look for love,

for revenge,

for a door outside their pain,

for a revolutionary change in design,

for Tetro,

for filthy-made money...

Once in a lifetime

Once in a lifetime. Thot's how often anyone should watch the movie. I absolutely hate to dislike it because my worshipping for Beyoncé goes beyond reason, but I had it bad here. There are times that the script looks like it's spoofing the actual movie. In general it would be good material for a bad TV movie. Most of the performances are horrific (Brody, you should be ashamed) and there is just a lot of nonsense about the characters and the general storyline. Thank God it's not a tough movie to follow because Darnell Martin certainly tries to make it impossible to understand. Although, as I am a very positive person (...) I'll say that Jeffrey Wright is quite right (too much Sex and the City over the years) in his character and my beloved Beyoncé is actually good at times.
The music is of course marvelous but that's just opportunistic (with the exception of Once in a lifetime, of course). So basically this movie is only apt for Beyoncé lovers. So maybe I'll watch it again... fastforwarding the parts where she doesn't appear.

At last!!

At last my lonely days are over, because tonight I'm watching Cadillac Records. (Thanks for understanding my ununderstandingbiltiy, David) Oooh, now what you're waiting for? Oooh, the one that I adore...

Some thoughts later on...

WOW (aka Oscars Night)

The Oscars are done and I have more doubts than Sister Aloysius. How many times can you fall in love with Hugh Jackman on the same night? How self-absorbed can I be? Not to brag or anything but I was dedicated the two first awards. I am a Spanish actor and a proud homosexual. After watching The Wrestler I was hoping Marisa would win but Penélope took it home. I'm glad as well. She's great in the role and the speech nearly brought me to tears. Again I nearly cried with Dustin Lance Black's speech. Two awards, potential tears and no tissues... How sweet can Sarah Jessica Parker's voice be? She was beautiful, but she had some kind of tumour in a Broderick-shape. Weird. What was that thing Philip Seymour Hoffman had on his head? Weirder. Why didn't Anne Hathaway and Hugh Jackman actually kiss? How can you be as cute as Anne playing Nixon? Not even Amy Adams would have topped that sweetness. How incredibly talented is Beyoncé? Why Freida Pinto's dress had that ugly sleeve? Was Jennifer Anniston in a sudden rush when she realized who was sitting front row? Did Angelina inappropriately touched Brad when Jen was looking? Did Jack Black noticed some of this? Did Natalie Portman suffer while presenting? Why every single frame of WALL·E makes me love the world? Why didn't Matilda received his daddy's award? Why did Reese Witherspoon look like she was high? Why were both Penn and Winslet so sober yet deliciously happy when they won? Who will be nominated next year? Is it time to start wondering already? Who will host? Oh my God!!
I have such doubts.
