The Return of the Ravenwood, Chillin with Miller, Cro-Magnons Not Blacks
I was watching G4 channel's coverage of the 2007 Comic-Con and they showed a
special announcement by the principal cast and director of the new Indiana Jones
movie. This was broadcast to the Comic-Con audience and featured Spielberg, Ford
and others. I liked it when Spielberg was muted when he said the title of the
new film (I'm sure a lip reader catched it and it will soon be spoiled all over
the internet).
But then Spielberg did something that could only appeal to the hardcore Raiders
fans: he brought out a chair with the name "Marion Ravenwood", followed shortly
thereafter by Karen Allen. Pretty cool if you ask me. Marion was one of my all
time favorite female characters of any movie. The fans always wondered why she
disappeared from the two sequels and now Spielberg has made things right. I just
hope he makes the movie right. There are those who will go nameless who are
opposed to this new sequel (kkktookmybabyaway) and they have a point. Last
Crusade was a fitting ending and Ford is a senior citizen at this point, etc. I
don't know, it's to big of an event for me to ignore it. I'll be seeing it in
the theatres for sure.
I tried the new Miller beer product called "Chill". You've probably seen the
commericals. It has lime and salt and is a Mexican recipe going way back. Last
week I was walking through Biggs and there was a lady handing out little plastic
cups of Chill along with chips and salsa. They were 25 cents to try so I gave it
a shot. It was good and the typical beer after-taste is non-existent. Works for
me, way to go Miller. PLus I love those Miller High Life commericals with the
guy removing Miller beer from places that have expensive prices, so Miller good
with me. Besides, Budweiser has George Clooney as a spokesperson, so I'll not be
drinking a Budweiser anytime soon.
The new sitcom based on the Geico Caveman commericals is making news. It seems
the producers/network suits/whomever have seen fit to announce that the show "IS
NOT A RACIAL ALLEGORY". Liberals everywhere must be saddened, I'm sure they were
looking forward to seeing race themes on the show as whites abused the poor
cavemen. Now I'm very skeptical of this show's success because only one of the
three actors from the commercial are going to be in series. Big Mistake.
