I’m actually writing a new blog post. What the hell? What inspired me? Well, it’s the crappy movie that happens to be on the TeeVee called “Motherhood” with Uma Thurman. Gosh this movie sucks for having Uma Thruman in it. Maybe I’m spoiled because she’s such a bad ass in Kill Bill. I have to say I’m disappointed that she spent the whole move being the “frazzled mom blogger who’s filled with angst” who suddenly finds her voice when her husband sells a rare book and presents her with a check for $24,000. And then they unleashed all their pent-up married with children sexual tension on the rooftop of their building while their child’s 6th birthday party is happening a few floors down. All of a sudden she knows what’s important about being a mother. Bullshit. Yes, I watched the whole thing. It was like a horrible accident where you don’t want to look, but you *have* to look. I just needed to see if it was going to get any better. It didn’t. Thank goodness I found Big Trouble in Little China after it ended.
Please take a minute (or three) to also enjoy the music video for the theme song.
And then there’s this piece of genius
Anyways. Being married to a man who is a total movie buff and thinks that if Hollywood has put it on film it should be seen by him, I’ve seen some pretty shitty movies. I set some rules in house that I’ve mentioned before. I will say that his love of cinema has certainly exposed me to movies I wouldn’t have watched otherwise and some which should have never been made. But, I love him, this husband of mine.
By the way, did anyone else notice how they set Big Trouble in Little China up for a sequel that never happened? That’s a crying shame.
