anyway, i've seen every single movie of his (including the obsure british imports from the 80s and early 90s), except for one....
HARSH TIMES.
why have i been dreading this film? maybe because i've heard it's the worst movie in the entire world.
or maybe it's because christian just can't pull off the whole cholo "ese" vibe. i don't know. it just gives me the creeps. even though rico from six feet under is in it too, i just haven't been able to gather up the courage to watch it.
so last night i saw that it was coming on showtimes so i decided to tivo it. yeah, and um, i couldn't get past the first 5 minutes. and now it's sitting there on the playlist just looking at me. waiting for me to press the play button. ain't gonna happen any time soon, son.
well, anyway, the past few days i've been in a funk. okay, let's face it...it's been about 2 weeks now. i just can't shake it off.
so today, after a long day of school and work, i schlepped on over to vons to grab a quick dinner and look in the hallmark section for a birthday card for a friend.
i found this:
haha yes. that's christian bale's voice saying, "well, a guy who dressed up like a bat clearly has issues." and it's in a greeting card. awesome. totally made me smile.
then, after school, after work, and after vons, i was really feeling down and lonely when i realized i had nothing clean to wear tomorrow. and since the washing machine is on the fritz, i dragged my sad body and piles of dirty clothes over to the laundromat and sweated up a storm in the hot and humid building, doing my miserable homework, while a clint eastwood movie played in the background.
when i was finally done with my washing and folding, i grabbed all my stuff and as i started walking toward the exit, i looked up and saw this:
yeah, that's the harsh times movie poster staring back at me. um, the only movie poster in the entire laundromat. LaundryWorld wins at life, for sure. someone's trying really hard to get me out of my funk!made my entire week.
