case in point

i recently made some comments about getting fucked, but not getting kissed by the scifi channel and their homemade stinkers of movies and yet another really interesting and exciting movie is being made by scifi. really interesting and really exciting, in theory. Reuters reports:

Sci Fi Channel is developing a four-hour miniseries that delivers a twist on "The Wizard of Oz."
In "Tin Man," a young girl named Dorothy gets lost in an alternate universe policed by law enforcement officers known as Tin Men. In true "Wizard" fashion, she tries to find her way home with the help of three strangers she meets in the mysterious land known as Outer Zone, or O.Z.

Now, don't get me wrong. I'm no pole-smoking, judy garland loving, vw bug driving, container store shopping fag that has some special connection with the movie. i just think that the whole Oz concept and storyline has some cool ideas that could really be played on that no one has really dealt with in a feature film version.

...and ok, i shopped at the container store, but only once and it was with my roommate during college and we were REALLY drunk. but only once...

moving past my improprieties in lubbock, this is the type of film, that if done well with cool special effects and tons of 'bullett-esque' car chase scenes and dorothy is played by pamela anderson who has a constant need to show her tits and have threesomes with the well-hung, cowardly lion and scarecrow, who can go all night . . .

sorry, i'm getting away from myself. my whole point here is that this could be a decent if not quality movie, but i'm pretty sure that scifi is gonna bend us over again, like they do on any given saturday night when i could, instead, be puking out back of some shithole tavern on lower greenville while trying to get the one eyed, scurvy ridden, 66 year old bar maid, who when i walked in made some comment about how she could possibly be the ugliest woman i've ever laid eyes on but now want to sleep with, cause those bastards who make rumpleminze have lied to me, once again, and 4 shots of that would make woody allen look appetizing, to show me her tits.

on a tangent again...so i'll kill the evening watching this film knowing good and well, hours beforehand, that it's gonna blow in the biggest of ways and i'll still stick around for every torturous minute of it.


HEY SCIFI, THANKS FOR FUCKING NOTHING!

Lay off of the absinthe, bro. The wormwood is causing lesions on your brain...
