I PUT MY FANDOM ON CRACK
[WARNING: This post contains HIGH LEVELS OF WTF COME OFF IT. Read at your own peril!]
OMG SUNDANCE CHANNEL. ICONOCLASTS THIS MORNING WITH bakapikananoda. *HUGS HER SO TIGHT FOR PUTTING UP WITH ME, and for letting me come over in the rain!* First and foremost, the TV Guide AND the official website mislead! Iconoclasts is not so much an interview/documentary as it is a confessional. And the title, "REDFORD ON NEWMAN," had me laughing before the show even began. I swear, I reach such incredible highs due to the STUPIDEST THINGS. XD Iconoclasts had a lot of *snirk* I-could-so-twist-that worthy lines, mostly from Redford, BUT THERE WAS THIS ONE LINE THAT REALLY GOT TO ME. And, sobs, I am SAD I don't remember the exact phrasing, but Newman had me XDD! all OVER THE PLACE.
Newman: *smiles* Redford lost his virginity sometime between Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and The Sting. *laughing*
I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER WHY HE SAID THAT? OR WHY IT WAS RELEVANT TO ANYTHING THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT? I WAS TOO OMG WHAT?! *BURSTS OUT LAUGHING SO HARD!* from the way he said it to follow the next MINUTE of conversation.
And omg I love Newman so much! I mean, I adored him before, but his interview was so cute I squee! He cracks the stupidest jokes and doesn't know when to KILL them, which probably would have gotten annoying if he hadn't been able to retain those awesome good-natured/goofy Newman vibes.
Blast from the Past!
You see, there are just SO MANY reasons to love Newman you may pull a facefault in a GOOD WAY.
OMG, HI, PAUL. XDDDDD
And it starts with posters. Last week I was looking for posters online because my father has been pestering me about POSTERS. I don't know why. Perhaps my bare as ass white walls drove him crazy, but he said, "Mina, WHY DON'T YOU HAVE ANY POSTERS?" And I said, "I DON'T KNOW," so I immediately hit the net to find a The Sting movie poster for my room. GOD IT TOOK ME FOREVER TO FIND one that was 27 x 40, but eventually I succeeded. Anyway, ya'll know what the standard Sting movie poster looks like, right? The 'we are very friendly and gay with each other' poster?
This poster?
Look at the other poster I stumbled upon during my search.
No, really, look at it.
Its BRIGHTNESS demands attention.
HELLO, I AM MAROON-ALMOST-PINK AND RAINBOW COLORED.
Henry doesn't even WEAR that in the film. Perhaps he borrowed something from Kid Twist aka The Freaking Pimp and forgot to snatch the PIMP CANE to complete the costume. Unfortunately I cannot say the same for Hooker. Hooker... he, yeah. He wears that.
OTHER PICTURES I FOUND!
A lobby card for The Sting's second theatrical release that makes me think WHAT?
because it should read as follows:
HOOKER IS SUCH A PRETTY HOOKER.
And I wish this image wasn't so dark, because then it would be pretty bitchin' awesome.
Now for a Point of Information.
There is a book entitled The Big Con that I have recently acquired. It was written in the 1940's by one Linguistics Professor, David W. Maurer. The Big Con is nonfiction. The Big Con has a thirty page glossary that you MUST refer to, or you risk being hopelessly lost. The Big Con inspired The Sting. But back to the glossary. Fourth entry from the bottom, page 294.
"To get a hard-on. To reach for a pistol."
I DIDN'T KNOW THE TERM 'HARD-ON' COULD BE APPLIED THIS WAY. HAHAHA. HAHAHAHAAAA. And that's all I'm saying. AHAHAHA. HENRY. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
