Since I don't have TV, I miss some sneaky little parties. They are rare enough that I don't mind, except when I finally catch on.
I saw a preview for Snakes on a Plane last night. Star: Samuel L. Jackson. Budget: $35 million. Premise: beyond stupid. Marketing engine: double overdrive. Title colors: the yellow-to-orange wash familiar to every wannabe Raiders of the Lost Ark movie or spoof ever. Ok, something's up.
C'mon now, Hollywood, don't be shy. Whatcha doin'? If even Beeker knows what's up, surely you can clue the rest of us in.
Guess where I'll be on August 18? Yep, the one place you'll never see this movie: a plane. Irony sucks.
