“Pineapple Express": a weather condition in which a jet stream of warm air from the region around Hawaii travels all the way up to the likes of Canada, bringing winds and rains.

I Hope It’s As Bad As Can Be

I’ve been looking forward to tomorrow for many weeks now, and it’s not difficult to guess why.

Yes, I’ve caught Superbad Fever. The only thing I’m afraid of is whether or not the teen comedy will live up to my expectations. As I mentioned and insinuated before, this year is lacking in comedies, and is almost completely void of significant ones.

The Personal Touch

There aren’t a lot of personal comedies being made anymore. And I didn’t really notice that. I love those movies. But I guess that era of movies like Manhattan and Annie Hall and things like that has past. Because I’ve been trying to think of what are the personal comedies of the last 10-15 years? And there’s not too many of them. I loved Welcome To The Dollhouse.
