I now know why my parents hate me.

Ew. Ew. Ew. Never watching "Quest For Camelot" EVER again.
Because Cary Elwes is the voice of Garrett. I knew his voice really bothered me for some reason, but I didn't know why.
Okay, when you look on the back of the movie, it doesn't look like there's anyone famous enough to have their name put on the back, but hello? Pierce Brosnan, Cary Elwes (ewwww), Celine Dion, Gary Oldman, Don Rickles, and Eric Idle provide the voice talents for this movie. Wows.
"The King and I" was even worse. I guess the filmmakers decided if they smushed 2 hours of plot, a few of the award-winning songs, and tons of "hilarious" slapstick humor into 90 minutes of cartoon, it would be great AND kid-friendly.
Not so much.
The songs were great...except Anna Leonowens had the MOST ANNOYING singing voice ever. Too breathy, and she sounded like the mom from "The Swan Princess".
Aaagh, just too awful. It was pretty racist, too. Master Little? Painful. And they gathered elements from ALL Asian cultures and tried to pass it off as Siamese.
The worst part? They didn't even use the theme from the original "The King and I".
However, Tuptim and Chululongkorn sang "I Have Dreamed", my absolute FAVORITE song from the original film (even though it technically wasn't in the original one).
Oh yeah, the delectably shirtless Lun Tha was missing, replaced by a grown-up Chululongkorn. Lol. And Tuptim was a flower arranger instead of a concubine, because concubines are not family appropriate. And, you know, it would be really awkward if the Crown Prince wanted to get with the girl his dad has been sleeping with.
Aaagh, Louis kept forgetting to put on his British accent. Kralahome = so evil. But he didn't even wear a skirt!
ROFL, there's a board on IMDB for "The King and I" entitled: I was on the staff of this movie and even I hate it.
So I'm watching it again this afternoon.
AAAAAAAH I FOUND A DRESS FOR FRESHMAN!!!!
It's a black halter with pinkish polka dots and netting under the skirt. I also got Vans that look like slippers to go with it.
So pumped.

Woman power!!!

I am never watching movies with my brothers again.
I think I just suck at picking them out, though. Movies, not...yeah.
So we decided to have a little bonding sleepover. Yeah. Cuz we're nerds. So we rented movies to celebrate the occasion; "Hairspray", "UHF", and "Robin Hood: Men In Tights".
"Hairspray" was good a second time around, but I still think the second half is way flat, and the ending was way too long. But the music was great, and I'm in love with the soundtrack.
Aaaaaagh, "UHF" with Weird Al Yankovic when he still had a Jew-fro! (not racist...) I don't know if it was the best movie I've ever seen or the worst movie I've ever seen. He daydreamed that he was Rambo...but he made a sandwhich out of a Twinkie, a hot dog, and Cheez Wiz. And there was this guy Bob who had the ugliest hair I think I've ever seen. It was way random and Michael Richards played a really freaking annoying janitor/TV host.
Man, Cary Elwes sucks. Since the movie was by Mel Brooks, I was expecting something really good. Hello, "Spaceballs"? Guess not. It was just really dumb and not funny and Cary Elwes can't act. Dave Chappelle was in it, though, and he's pretty funny. He was the only thing that made it worth it. Other than that, :P.
Yay I saw "Enchanted", though. THAT was pretty AMAZING. It was everything my life probably should have been. Except James Marsden REALLY creeped me out and the evil henchman was played by the Peter Pettigrew guy. Yeah, the giant balding rat, only in this movie he had long luxurious hair. Amy Adams is my new best friend, and it was nice to see Patrick Dempsey playing something other than a manslut. Awwww it was just so adorable and amazing. It was kind of weird, I saw Alicia in the bathroom afterwards, but it was pretty cool talking to her after like....a long time???
Popcorn was good, too.
I love Atreyu so much. "When Two Become One" = my new favorite song.
Except there's this song I keep hearing on the radio that's like the hardcore version of "Lose Yourself". Aaaagh AND THEY WON'T TELL ME THE NAME!!
Why does "Alvin and the Chipmunks" look like a good movie?
