I was watching the rest of my Batman extras last night when I got to the one for ’Batman and Robin’. I actually felt really bad for Joel Schumacher. At one point in his snippet he looks at the camera and says that, to all the fans that loved Batman Forever and were really anticipating something for the sequel, he was really, genuinely sorry. Not that he’s not well off anyway, but I just felt bad for the guy having to justify such a huge disaster.
I remember going to see ’Batman and Robin’ at the midnight show when it was released. My friends and I had never been so let down in our entire lives. We couldn’t even pretend that it didn’t suck horribly. Schumacher concurred with our only positive thoughts on the film... that Uma Thurman was awesome as Poison Ivy. Other than that, no justification could avoid all those interviewed from admitting it was just plain terrible.
I got stuck at work till almost eight last night because Jabba saw the CG working with me and had to come over and whine to him about this whole PeopleSoft disaster here. Revealing stuff no one had even bothered telling me. I am not sure if it’s just that the women here are all stupid or if the consulting firm handling this is also a bunch of fucking idiots. Either way, the whole thing is just one huge disaster probably on par with ’Batman and Robin’.
Turns out the new accountant guy who had helped me out when I was not here Friday walked out of the office yesterday. I have no details as to what happened, but sometime around lunch something happened and he just grabbed his coat and stormed out. I haven’t a doubt in my mind one of the bitches over there pushed his last button. He seems like a quiet, reserved guy but I’ve always been able to tell behind his eyes was something boiling over. I can sniff out the crazies. I’d really love it if he just didn’t come back at all. Jabba was whining about that last night. Talking about it cryptically as if we knew what had happened or even who it was she was referring to. I had to find out what little I know from my other means.
Right now my main goal is to get through this day, get the fuck out of here by four and get home to my couch. I have no other desire but to be a vegetable.
drama,
playpen,
movie,
