Pardon my dust. I can only say things are gonna get worse before they get better. Spring Break is upon me and despite the horror that that two words still have any sort of meaning in my life, I’m a bit behind on a whole helluva a lot of things and will use the break to catch up. Next week will be sparse on both blogs as I will be visiting parentals because they seem to like having me around from time to time. It’s not a bad thing seeing them, too.
Onward to this week’s villain.
If you haven’t noticed, a pair of videos have been burning up You Tube. They feature amateur footage of a very angry Director Russell having a bitchfest with an equally angry Lily Tomlin from the I HEART HUCKABEES set. I don’t know about you, but it’s pretty damn pathetic to see grown people acting less grown-up than all of my little nieces and nephews at an all you can eat ice cream social.
THE SOUP‘s Joel McHale suggests the vids are faked. Writer/director James Gunn thinks the incident is simply “disgusting” and follows with news that this type of behavior is not the norm in his town.
I agree with Gunn. I don’t care how cool and understated I HEART HUCKABEES was or how awesome THREE KINGS turned out. “Creative brilliance” does not excuse unprofessional shittyness:
If it’s fake: why? If it’s real, well, I stand by my previous comments.
The videos are mysteriously excorcised as soon as anybody notices their existence. I can’t garuntee how long the above will be around.
UPDATE: Lily Tomlin weighed in on the HUCKBEE noise earlier this week.
