Hella-Ween

Two things are going on here. Number one is that it is the last day of October. That in and of itself sucks monkey balls because it brings us that much closer to the end of the year and of course brings us inevitably closer to winter.

The second thing going on tonight was Halloween. You know, the night where people dress their children up in costumes and send them out to beg for candy. What a confusing holiday this is to me. All year long people tell their kids to never take candy from strangers, then in one night they send them to a ton of houses of people that they don’t even know and have them take candy from strangers. That’s fucked up if you ask me, almost more fucked up than dressing your kids up in goofy costumes. I don’t know about anywhere else but around here true Trick or Treating has died down quite a bit. I remember when I was a kid I used to go out and trick or treat all over the place and get tons of candy. Nowadays with all the freaky asshole people that are out there you can’t let your kids go to half of the houses anymore.

Hey, I finally got my DVD’s on Saturday. I watched quite a few of the George Carlin specials while I was carving pumpkins on Sunday. Last night I watched Orgazmo, which is probably one of my favorite low budget movies. It was one of the first movies put out by the guys that did South Park. Technically it was put out by Trey Parker, but Matt was also in the movie. Tonight in between the 15 trick or treaters that showed up I watched Harold & Kumar go to White Castle and Team America. I probably should have watched Ghostbusters since it was Halloween and all, but I’ll save that for another day when I’m feeling nostalgic. One thing I’ve began noticing on the DVD’s is that they are putting these stupid warnings on there about how illegal movie downloading is wrong and how buying bootlegged movies from street vendors is stealing. Here’s how the deal goes, they show someone stealing a purse and it says “you wouldn’t steal a purse” and it shows someone stealing a car and says “you wouldn’t steal a car”. To me this is a totally pointless fucking ad to put on a DVD. If I had bought a pirated DVD do you really think that it would have this ad on it? People pirate shit everyday and a little pussy commercial like that isn’t going to change that. In fact, I take offense to the fact that I have purchased well over 100 DVD’s since their inception and you are basically chastising me like I’m a thief? The nerve of you fucking Hollywood cocksuckers. This is going to be the same as the music downloading cases were going. Oh no, everyone is downloading music and now nobody is buying it anymore. Look Hollywood, the reason people aren’t going to see your movies in the theater anymore is because you don’t have anymore original ideas left in your rotting brains. If all you can pump out for movies is old TV shows remade into movies or old movies remade into new movies then people are going to get sick of that shit really quick and quit buying it. You need to quit blaming the lack of sales on bootleggers and downloaders and start placing the blame where it really lies; with the script writers that have done too much meth and actually think it would be a good idea to make an A Team movie or a Knight Rider movie or a Honeymooners movie or whatever other fucking show they feel like making a movie out of. Another thing, quit making sequels and prequels; especially when you can’t get most of the cast to show up. If you are going to make a related movie to a successful film and your main stars from the first movie don’t want to return, maybe you should read the script because it probably sucks ass. If you need proof look no further than Dumb and Dumberer. Had I not wasted the half hour I watched that piece of shit before I shut it off I would have thought it was a biopic on Hollywood script writers.
