WaMu!

I'm totally stoked.

I lost my debit card sometime last week (which is totally unlike me, but I think it's because of all the wishy-washy plans I've been having. It totally kills me not to have set plans and follow through with them. Maybe its my neurosis coming out but it seems everyone here is too laid back for me). I have narrowed it down to either Angels and Kings for the fashion show or the cab ride home. Either way, I don't see finding it from either place. I have been tracking my bank account since then, to make sure no charges were put on it all the while, hoping I would find it, but alas it is gone.

I called WaMu this morning and they are sending me a new card and I dont even have to switch accounts! Woo Hoo! I can pay rent on time! See? I knew I decided to bank with them for a better reason than their name is cool and they have awesome commercials.

The only gripe I have is there isn't own near my apartment, but then again there isnt much around it anyway.

A review

Due to popular demand of "Anonymous"

So first off, the line to get into this movie was wrapped around the theater. The crowd? A bunch of wannabe hipsters. figures.

27 things about Chapter 27:

1. The point of Lindsey Lohan? And her name was Jude. . I'm not even going to touch that one.

2. I don't get the correlation between The Catcher in the Rye and John Lennon. But it was portrayed very well that Chapman REALLY believed that he was Holden Caulfield.

3. By really believed, I mean he was c.razy. (especially because who would want to be that crazy bastard anyway? Holden is the most annoying literary character I have ever had to listen to bitch for 200 pages about the way everyone is so "goddamn phony"- when he's the crazy phony one!)

4. Jared Leto put on 67 pounds for this movie and apparently the director wants to make sure you do not forget this. There were an unnecessary amount of shirtless/ pantless scenes.

5. Jared Leto's accent made it seem as though Chapman was mentally handicapped instead of southern? (Is he from Georgia or Hawaii? I'm still confused) The narration portion of this movie made it almost unbearable. He should have just talked normally instead of trying to impersonate a mentally slow person. Or maybe Leto IS just mentally slow.

6. I was unaware Chapman went to New York twice to try to kill Lennon.

7. I really like The Cranberries' song "I just shot John Lennon"

8. I don't understand the fascination with John Lennon (and I am aware of the crucifixion I am going get for this comment)

9. Back on track- It was a really good artistic movie. I think it was a good shot at trying to figure out what was going on with Chapman.

10. And with all indie-like movies there are wayyy too many parts were it is silent and that always makes me want to go to sleep.

11. Im still confused as to why killing John Lennon would make a good Chapter 27 for The Catcher in the Rye.

12. And anyway, Holden was just an annoying teen (NOT a 25 year old, btw) going through puberty. I must have missed the part where he was homicidal (because I was definitely skipping paragraphs at a time to make the 200 pages of hell end quickly).

13. If John Lennon was as obsessed with numerology as Chapman was with Holden, wouldn't they both be considered crazy? Except Lennon channeled it through music. . . maybe Chapman was denied into art school (like Hitler) and if he would have had a good way to channel his crazy, then there would have never been this tradegy.

14. I can tell you right now, I am not going to make it to 27.

15. The Q & A session did not happen. Apparently having the director and Jared Leto come out before the movie was enough for them but it clearly stated on the website that there would be one. I am assuming Mr. Leto wanted to get his ass to The Meat Packing District early to get as much free publicity as possible. It's just too bad he always fucks it up by doing something douche-bag like to confirm everyone's already formed opinion. douche.

16. I'm just a little perturbed by the lack of Q&A because I felt a spark of interest after the movie and would have liked to heard other's questions about it.

17. I was unaware Sean Lennon met Chapman in the park with "Jude". I dont even want to see his therapy bills.

18. The sites that are protesting this movie are dumb. Get over it.

19. If you liked Catcher in the Rye I am sure you would appreciate this movie. Just pretend Leto isn't crazy and ignore the part where John Lennon shows up and it's the damn annoying ass book.

20. Can I please say how annoyed I am that there was not a Q&A?! I don't know why I continue to love Jared Leto when he continues to pull douchebag crap like this.

THE END.

(the bottom line: It's really good if you like indie films.)

Finally

Chapter 27 is in theaters. Only took over a year for a studio to pick it up. So I have my ticket for tonight's 10:20 showing of it at the Angelika. We'll see. Considering I just got finished reading The Catcher in the Rye, hated it and Mark David Chapman was apparently obsessed with it (I think he think he is the Holden "toolbag" Caufield)- this will be interesting to say the least. I hope I can stay awake long enough.

Oh. and did I forgot to mention Jared Leto will be there to conduct a Q&A session after the movie, which no doubt will turn into a sob story about his unhealthy weight gain for the movie and what's going on in 30stm world. What a douche.

(Im allowed to say this- because I still want to have his children despite this)

I really need to get off mailing lists.

You better believe I will be there this weekend.
A-friggin-mazing.

WHYYYYYYYY

Some mornings I wake up and ask myself "WHY do you want to be a New Yorker again?" Why dont radiators work the way they are supposed to (ya know, on COLD days)?
Why do you want to cram into a subway with a million other people? Why do you want to cram when you are already agitated and the man who doesn't understand personal space keeps hitting your bag? Why would you want to do this knowing your tendency to drift to homicidal thoughts? Why would you want to walk to work on a sidewalk where no one knows how to walk? Why would you want to nearly get run over by one person then accidentally run over another? Why would you want to smell the things you smell that are in no way appetizing?

UGH!!!!

Some mornings I think the human race would just be better off if I stayed in bed.

This was a bad idea
