10 Things I Hate About You

· · 🌡️ 59°F

I really liked that movie. Every time @drew posts I am reminded of it. You better stop, Drew, before I put it on the NetFlix queue and force @james to watch it.

And I like a lot of other really dumb popular movies where people in their mid-twenties play 15 year olds. And I tend to cry easily at ridiculous movies. I am really not fit for being exposed to popular culture.

Also, I am 28. I only have another year where I could conceivably move to LA and find a job playing a teenager on a new sitcom on the WB (or CW or whatever it's called now). I better get cracking.

I should be working right now, but I felt like yesterday was Friday and that would make today Saturday.

    You know what? I am WWWAAAY ahead of your game. I dug up that movie and watched it already, a couple days back (for about the 7th time) - and it was *all* Drew's fault. That movie was the first thing I thought of the minute.. no, the second I saw his first "10 things" list hit the estrip list.

    Yeah, and I love pop movies and start crying the minute a James Horner/John Williams soundtrack screeches out of speakers. Heck, I don't even need any plotline - I cry watching trailers with emotional soundtracks.

    So now that the basic qualifications have been outlined, do you think I could get a job too? I have one more year (maybe half) more than you. heheh.

    And why pretend? I have stopped working altogether.

    those are the best movies. Can't Hardly Wait is really the best one thoguh. don't you dare steal my 25 year old playing a 15 year old dream. When I turned 22 I really felt like I lost my chance because that is the age when the guy who played Dawson on Dawson's Creek was discovered while majoring in sociology like I was at the time. Maybe there is still a chance....

    My favorite Freddy Prinze Jr movie is [link=http://imdb.com/title/tt0192111/]Head over Heels[/link] where a beautiful girl (who dresses frumpy) moves in with 4 supermodels, and gets made over. Then, she falls in love for F.P.jr's character who may or may not be a serial killer, but she is not very concerned and keeps going out with him anyways.

    Turns out he is a secret undercover agent working in the fashion world to uncover the brutal blood diamond traders, and they all team up, the main character, the supermodels, and the undercover agent, to stop the evil guys. And there is a great dane named Hamlet.

    Sorry to start all of this.

    For the record, my favorite adults playing teens movie is Mean Girls.

    I'm not really into the teen movie thing, but I had to watch it because it was writeen by Tina Fey. I will post 10 things I like about Tina Fey sometime soon.

    I love that line where that kid from the 3rd rock goes something like: "One question before we talk, do you think you should be drinking when you have no liver?"

    Hilarious!

    When I turned 18 I felt a great loss. Now I never could do kiddie porn.
