e-sizzle's Comments

Funny comments. Actually, as a guy, I know a lot of dudes who flat out can't cook or clean after themselves, and damn near live like vagrants when they are single (not me btw). So when they get married the wives either have to pick up the slack or seriously lower their living standards.

Andre Condrescu once describe Boulder, CO as the only town he's been in where people panhandled for Espresso and Gitane cigarettes. Funny and true. On Pearl St. I once saw a couple of young girls and they were asking money for a 'spot of tea', in a fake English accent. I did not give.

In general I give when the mood suits me. I once was talking to a guy and he needed money and he said 'I won't lie, I want to get drunk.' Since I was on the way to the liquor store myself, I invited him along and bought him some vodka, and some for myself and we went our seperate ways.

Another time, I was in Vancouver and I was leaving the next day so I gave some kid an undertermined amount of Canadian money in coins. He was very appreciative. Hell, he may have even had legit needs, who knows.

I understand it's a real problem but they need a better metaphor than Island.

When I hear there's a Texas sized island of trash in the Pacific the first thing I think is, 'No way! Let me see the pictures!'

Then they tell me there is no picture, and it's not exactly and island but it's a big problem so I should be seriously interested blah blah blah.

Go back to calling this stuff pollution or garbage or something.

I don't have much of a problem with ads being on the page though I don't generally use them. I agree with Ali, I am dubious about some of them though I'll click one's I trust, like Amazon.

Yo. That was nuts. Was the dialogue from some real interview? It's very believable. Particularly like the ebonics sounding cow, and the dogs talking about dingleberries.

That Wallace and Grommit schtick makes everything kind of funny.

Even if it's not the smartest move, it looked so cool I can see how they would find it hard to resist. Plus, there weren't any flying cows, which, from what I saw of Twister, are the true sign of a nasty tornado.

Classic. The text is redundant as pointed out above.

I recall one for Nike where Barry Sanders was on a mural 3 stories tall on a building in Detroit and the only text said, 'Barry Sander, (Actual Size)', or something like that. It was pretty funny.

This is just confusing. Liquor ads are supposed to have hot chics, showing you how popular with the ladies you'll be when you drink enough Bud light or whatever. Didn't know they were supposed to revist historical controversies. (BTW, we need McCain, Hillary and Obama to let us know what they think about this.)

From what I heard, the Brothers Grimm cost 70 million. That's just a lot of money. Like feed a small country money, if they can't recoup, it's not like Weinstein and other producers are being venal. That's just too much of the world's finite resources going into a project that no one is going to enjoy anyway.

I have some respect for Terry's iconoclasm, but still, I can hardly follow whats going on in his movies, and I've tried, from Time Bandits on.

His signature is his oddball visuals. Nice. When he can make a movie with a narrative, then we can do lunch.
