The Big Movie Review: War of the Worlds

Jul 01, 2005 00:48



War of the Worlds is the hit movie sensation that managed to sell out at least one movie theatre in Pittsburgh. I went to see the movie so I could write a review where I would have said, "I always wanted to know what Tom Cruise would be like if the world was taken over by aliens, and now I know, just like I now know what Tom Cruise would be like if he were a samauri, or a sports agent or some guy with long hair." I stood in line outside the theatre for 20 minutes before learning that the movie was sold out and my friend's grandpa is a cashier at a movie theatre. Anyway, the movie was sold out so I went to a bar where Irish Car Bombs were supposed to be $4.50, but they were $6.00, so I just had a couple beers. I saw some girl who I had sex with when I was 18 and then we left and walked to her apartment. We started watching The Pacifier because neither of us were sure why I was there. I was also unsure why a girl in her early twenties would have rented The Pacifier. From what I saw of it, I figured it was probably not quite as good as War of the Worlds, but better than Magnolia. I tried to make out with her and she kicked me out. That's it. I wanted to see War of the Worlds, but fuck, things happen.

  • Garfield and Jon Arbuckle once met Snoopy and Charlie Brown in an event comic strip done for charity in 1981. The story crossed over through both Peanuts and Garfield. It concerned Garfield and Snoopy trying to see who could sleep longer, and Jon and Charlie's obvious disapproval of the contest!
