Saw the girls from Charlie’s Angels 2 interviewed. They were coming across as *really* (not just generic actor) airhead dumb. It surprised me, and leads me to wonder if they're *acting* really dumb (given that TV interviews are canned and totally non-spontaneous) or actually total vacuum-heads. Either way, it begs the question... Does it make them more attractive to the public at large, or was it a horrible mistake to let them go on a promotional tour?



I got to talking with Ray via email about the great old USA TV show "Night Flight" . There is very little of value about the show online, though. Lots of weird, goofy rock videos, movie clips and cult films. (It was later renamed or replaced by "Up all Night" and it just wasn't as good with a host, even if it was Gilbert Gottfried.) Ticking off things that wake back up... music videos by The Residents, Dynaman (the Japanese version of Power rangers) Episodes, SubGenius "Bob" films, Starewicz films and if I remember right, the first time I saw Porky pig say "Son of a b-b-b-b-b... gun. I bet you thought I was going to say Son of A bitch, didn't ya?" as he hammered his thumb. I'm wondering if I have any episodes on tape in my "box of unmarked random TV" collection along with old episodes of the real Ghostbusters, max headroom and misc MTV. If so, hopefully I'll be able to get Kev to burn them to a DVD for me. I'd really like to view The Intruder and Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge again.

I wonder if Tony is still part of Amway? The allure of that company is very strong, and the conditioning is not unlike certain cult tactics of peer pressure and indoctrination. Speaking of indoctrination, someone scanned in a Scientology promotional book from the 70s. Even if you don't care about the cult, the production values and the styles are well worth it. Every single page is a riot.

I was also reminded of Kelly... whom I had a massive crush on. I thought it was a great match... she was cute, personable, a gamer, from Massachusetts, and the only other person in our group that was single. Alas, it wasn't meant to be... I think I tried too hard. Kelly was part of our old gaming group one summer, compliments of the Wu's and SFSFS. That and meeting Danny via Tropicon are two of the best influxes of folks into my social circle thanks to the society. Downside... I think Elaine was obtained through there as a result, too. I've attended quite a few Tropicons, though three of them resulted in an early exit and trip around town instead. Highlights include Kathleen and I assisting Ray as GMs, and a Zombie killer game... Meeting Neil Gaiman, and talking about the CBLDF, sweeping the casino, and having my choice of all prizes one year, winning a grab bag of all Shadowrun items available that year. Sneaking in to just browse the dealer’s room before bolting off with Danny for lunch elsewhere, after getting fun loot to send to people and keep for myself. Other Kelly Memories are going to See Men In Tights and peanut butter M&Ms, 60s DC universe game.

I saw Broccoli Wokly at our grocery store the other day. I hate raw broccoli, but the name screams "BUY ME!"

Well, I suppose I *could* cook it... ;)

When the first movie came out, I noticed the angels looked like they had more brain cells when interviewed individually and no other angels were present. Interviewed as a group, they became more air headed and silly together. With this new batch of Angel 2 interviews, I've noticed the same thing.

I've wondered if the constant touching, playing with one another's hair and all the giggling as a group, is being done in hopes of gaining male's attention to the movie. Personally, it turns me off because it's like watching 5th grade school girls, rather than the more mature intimacy that grown women seem to have with one another. It's so blatant it seems like a put-on...fake.

That said - thinking of going to see it tonight. If I had seen any hint of the constant giggling and constant touchy feel-y stuff in either of the two movies, I wouldn't watch them.

And wow...I forgot all about "Night Flight" and "Up all Night". :0)

I thought it was calley Wokly because it was meant to be stir-fried?

I agree... I'v eseen Lucy Liu interviewd solo, and she seemed to have a few more brain cells firing.

I don't find women acting like third graders terribly attractive... but life of a pod.

Have a good time watching it.. I hope the wire-fu and explosions are fun!

Up all night and Night flight were part of my "never sleep" youth, and a fun way to goof around with like minded pals.

Night Flight was always the highlight of my weekend, back before we got MTV. Where else could you see the naughty Duran Duran and Frankie Goes to Hollywood videos....and terrible Andy Warhol movies....and be totally creeped out by Fantastic Planet? Oh god, remember Fantastic Planet?? I'm permanently scarred by that cartoon...

Fantastic planet! I remember them dubbing silly stuff to it once or twice, too.
