The boy and I went to see the new Looney Tunes movie today. We were both amused. I suspect I appreciated more than he the surfeit of shots focused tightly on Jenna Elfman’s tight buns and long legs. She spent the vast majority of the movie in miniskirts and shorts. I guess that’s how they got the PG rating.
As for the rest of the movie (yes I did notice other things), it was pretty funny and goofy. It’s pretty much what you would expect from a Looney Tunes live action movie, but with a stupendous number of inside jokes. Ralph is hanging out with the sheep and wolf, the frog sings, “Hello my baby” and so on. At four, Alex laughed at many places, but I laughed at many more. I think it’s safe to assume the movie was written for folks who are adults but remember the 90 minutes every Saturday spent watching Wile E. Coyote blowing himself up with shoddy Acme products. And for the women, Brendan Fraser flexes a lot.
I noticed I have an 85 cent credit on my Cafepress account for a referral sale. I can’t see who lists me as a referrer, but whoever you are, “Congratulations!” It’s a bit of a pipe dream for someone with a full-time job (and school and family) to think they’ll make any money on CP, so it’s especially gratifying that I got a sale myself in this time. Someone bought a clock. I think I’ll use my next batch of CafePress Bucks to buy myself a DPRK calendar. That’ll look nice in my cubicle…
