    I don't know what the fuck she's saying, but girl, I am living.

    - Trinity the Tuck, RuPaul's Drag Race


    Daniel Crag walks around looking cool for 105 minutes and it all makes sense why this "weird looking blonde short guy" was picked to play James Bond. (Their words, not mine, although, I did think he was weird. But hot weird.) He's hot, he's cool ("Hot eats, Cool treats!" - Dairy Queen), he's a great actor, he's emotional, he looks…

    While I recognize that Clueless is an adaptation of Jane Austen's Emma, at least that movie makes it crystal clear what work they are adapting from. THIS movie lifts a lot of scenes, plot points, and aesthetics from "Clueless" in the following ways and I have never heard the movie or Amy Heckerling or costume designer Mona May ever given any credit. "Clueless" was released in 1995, this movie in 2001.

    But you know what? I LIKE GWYNETH PALTROW. I LIKE GWYNETH PALTROW MOVIES. It's time to just embrace that. I saw this movie on a list called Guilty Pleasures. But I'm an adult. I'm done with the guilty pleasures. I don't want the GUILT. I just want the PLEASURE.…

    I liked this better than I had expected to, based on its trailer, which I found really corny! It was cute!

    Rachael Leigh Cook was so cute. At first I was rolling my eyes at Rachael playing that typical nerdy character that she always plays, but then I thought, maybe Rachael is just like that? LOL. And they gave her this overly quirky car that I think can play only one song, ugh, which just happened on the show "Stumptown".…
