Is Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull The Zwan Of Movies?

Bootleg new Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull trailer is up (for now), guys:

Am I the only one not boner-caliber excited about this movie? Don’t get me wrong, obviously I will see it. But I can’t help feeling that it’s just a 140 minute, big budget reminder of how I’m at a different place in my life. You guys, I love feeling like a kid as much as the next urban dwelling non-committal prolonged adolescent man child, but I also sleep in a big boy’s bed now, and enjoy drinking alcohol. I know that this is making me sound like an old man, and the Comment Creeps are going to give me a hard time about being so jaded and cynical that I can’t even enjoy a summer funtimes popcorn movie, but maybe some of us feel that it’s just as jaded and cynical that youthful nostalgia is being shoved down everyone’s throats so that Steven Spielberg and George Lucas can add another diamond pier to their solid gold shipyards (Because they have so many emerald boats. Because they’re retardedly rich.)

Your turn, Comment Creeps.

Every reality show has its share of mentally questionable contestants, but not always for the same reason. On VH1′s Rock of Love, the girls compete to see who can act more like an emotionally stunted 14-year-old already budding with the knowledge that she will need to exploit their own sexuality to survive. Literally, all of these women should be dead. These are the instants of their stunted adolescence…

Inna
This week is about Inna, who Brett thinks “needs to step up to the plate and take a swing”*. She sees him by the pool and talks about how hard it is to “like like” someone and see them forming a connection with other girls. Totes. It’s totes hard.
