Can I have my 2 hours back?
John and I watched Domino last night.
About 20 minutes in, we developed the Domino drinking game:
When Domino says or does something to prove she’s a hard-assed bitch, drink.
When there’s a flashback inside of a flashback, drink.
When “what happened” rewinds and changes, drink.
When you think “gee, this must be a film student masterpiece,” drink.
When the cute guy who looks like Ace from this year’s American Idol speaks Spanish, drink.
When the cute guy who looks like Ace from American Idol flirts with Domino, who is so clearly a lesbian it’s just not even funny: drink.
When Ed says or does something to prove he’s a hard-assed mutha-fucka, drink.
When Lateesha falls into a black welfare mom stereotype, drink.
When you’re ready to throw up, down the bottle. It’ll help.
Sadly, John and I are too sick to get stupid-drunk while watching a movie. Which is unfortunate, because that’s the only way this movie would be worth anyone’s time. Oh, except people who really like looking at hot, tattooed lesbians.
I want my 2 hours back.

Good thing you’re not part of the tabloid press and that she’s dead, otherwise you might have gotten sued for calling her a lesbian.
The only thing I found disappointing about the movie was Christopher Walken.

Can’t be sued for calling a character a lesbian.
Also: I’m an American. I can call people lesbian if I want to.
Walken was the *only* thing you found disappointing about the movie? You must have had very low expectations.

I never said you couldn’t, just saying that if you had printed it in a tabloid she could have sued you for libel. Which she was said to have been working when she died.
Of course I had low expectations… it was one of those “Based on a true story / real event / real person” movies, so of course it was going to be absolute crap. Entertaining crap, but crap non the less.
