The Lazy Blogmaster’s Post v 2.0


Movies:

What the hell is the matter with movie subtitles lately?

This might be old news but, apparently, the new Superman flick will be titled “Superman: Man of Steel.” Add that redundant gem to “The X-Files: I Want to Believe” and I’m starting to see an alarming trend.*

How long before “Transformers: Robots in Disguise” is announced?

*Retardation

Politics:

Well, now that it’s down to Obama/McCain, the Democratic party can finally focus on November. Wait, what? Hillary is still pretending she has a chance? And completely jeopardizing the entire Democratic party for her own selfish power-hungry reasons? Excellent.

Current Events:

Polygamists are the new black!—Or should I say white…..and underage….and totally mindfucked.

Television:

New episodes are back now that the delay from the WGA strike is finally over. But we may not be strike-free for long. Turns out the lowly underpaid actors are now throwing around the idea of a strike themselves. And you know what? They deserve every penny they are asking for. I mean, how is anyone supposed to survive on a paltry $250,000 per episode let alone $15 million per movie??? These people have illegitimate children to feed! And nannies to hire so they don’t really have to!


::sigh:: I hate everyone and everything.

The X-Files: I Want to Believe this title is a late April Fools Joke


Well, the official title to the upcoming X-Files movie has officially been revealed after months of secrecy and, I have to say, it totally sucks balls.

The second big-screen spinoff of the paranormal TV adventure will be called "The X-Files: I Want to Believe," Chris Carter, the series' creator and the movie's director and co-writer, told The Associated Press.

The title is a familiar phrase for fans of the series…. "I Want to Believe" was the slogan on a poster UFO-obsessed agent Fox Mulder had hanging in the cluttered basement office where he and Dana Scully worked.

"It's a natural title," Carter said in a telephone interview Tuesday during a break from editing the film. "It's a story that involves the difficulties in mediating faith and science. 'I Want to Believe.' It really does suggest Mulder's struggle with his faith."


You know, I was kind of hoping that after the first film was retardedly titled “The X-Files: Fight the Future” the producers would make up for their epic stupidity. Alas, no such luck. Oh well. At least this makes way for other rehashed X-Files movie titles such as:

“The X-Files: The Truth is Out There”
“The X-Files: Trust No One”
“The X-Files: I Still Can’t Believe They Killed Off the Lone Gunman! Oh, and Scully Giving Up Hers and Mulder's Miracle Son to Some Random Ass Farm Couple?? What was THAT about!? Fucking Retarded!”

Wait, was that last one too bitter? Rest assured, I’ll be okay. In the immortal words of The Simpsons ‘Comic Book Guy’ in reference to Star Wars: Episode 1

“Worst! Cosmic! Wars! Ever! I will only see it three more times… Today.”

Totally Non-Redundant Blog Post

Well, it isn’t a blog post lately without mention of the X-Files so I present to you 3 new pictures from the upcoming movie! Wooo! And since all the damn details of the film are being kept under lock and key, I’m here to provide some insight into each image.


Picture #1 Conjecture: Scully tries to get Mulder to back off his clearly incorrect (though obviously totally correct) theory that something paranormal is going on. 3 to 1 odds that Scully will use the words “improbable” or “implausible” in this scene. 5 to 1 odds she will use some variation of the phrase, “There’s no proof, Mulder!”


Picture #2 Conjecture: Scully reluctantly stumbles upon the proof that she previously claimed didn’t exist—ultimately making Mulder’s crackpot theory look somewhat true. In true X-Files fashion, said proof can only be found when blue flashlights are being utilized.


Picture #3 Conjecture: Mulder breaks out his patented “I’m pissed off” face when he realizes that his much-treasured ‘I Want to Believe’ poster has become wrinkled after Scully forgot to unplug the air humidifier. After the initial anger wears off, he cries for three days straight.

I'm so in the know.
