Clarification about (and apology for!) the Harlan Ellison thing. Let me repeat that: Ellison apologized! I should issue a clarification of my own--I had heard the "little fuck" story, but the context I heard it in was that it had been attributed to Ellison (specifically, in an elevator) as well as a few other people, much the way Marie Antoinette

Wow. I just figured it was a LOTR ripoff.

(okay, I think that really is Keira's stunt double),

I really need to slow down when I read...I could have sworn that said Keira's SMUT double.

*grin*

I know it's not cool to imagine that you know anything about celebrities based on just interviews and whatnot, and I've certainly never met Johnny Depp.

Having said that, I somehow think that if this little tidbit were to come to Johnny Depp's attention, his first reaction would not be: "I'm getting Tim Burton on the phone, and he, Danny Elfman and I are going to make magic with this one."

Seriously. I know he's always trying to ugly himself up or play unpleasant characters, but I have a feeling this one just crosses a line. Particularly since he has two young children.

Besides, I keep trying to imagine what the hell would *be* in such a movie. Karr outside the Ramsey house drooling in the bushes? There's a reason they don't make many movies about true-crime child molesters: it's because *no one wants to watch them.*

Um, it scares the hell out of me when the article ends with Creepy McCreeperson's family saying they'll be celebrating with him: Oh yay, C McC didn't kill JonBenet, but he WISHES he did. And fantasizes about it. Woo bloody hoo! Never mind getting him THERAPY or trying to HELP HIM or even considering his OTHER CREEPY CHILD SEX CRIMES. Let's bust out the champagne, bitches!

WHAT. IS. WRONG. WITH. YOU. PEOPLE. Their crazy pills are laced with other shit, I swear.

This may just be a champagne-loving family, as apparently "A day after the case against Karr was dropped, District Attorney Mary Lacy and her team have defended their decision to bring him to Colorado from halfway around the world on a jumbo jet, with champagne and pate for dinner."

Just wanted to mention that I saw Little Miss Sunshine last Tursday and loved loved loved it. Three years ago if you'd told me I think think Steve Carell would be one hell of an actor, I would have told you to please sell me a different bridge.
