Where the Wild Things "Aren't"

CNN HEADLINE : Parents upset, bored by Where the Wild Things Are I knew this would happen that some people wouldn't get Spike Jonze's adaptation of "Where the Wild Things Are." It was clear from the moment the movie started being made some undoubtedly wouldn't "get it" or say the movie isn't "kid oriented." Part of the magic behind Jonze's adaptation is the movie explores many haunting fears a child growing up in an imperfect world faces. This isn't your Disney "Where the Wild Things Are." This isn't your bubble gum "Where the Wild Things Are" either. It is however a rather poginant and honest take on a classic. The fun Max has in the book is just the same in the movie which makes quotes like this so confusing. "I think the book is almost designed for the 1-to-4 age group," said Griffioen, 31. "The text is so simple, and it fits in with the other books that are appropriate for that age level, w...

Get Your Dunkin Friday

I am still sick. Damn weather. No it is not swine flu, but even if it was I would ninja kick it in the FACE. Today actually has me excited because it is a magical day, Where the Wild Things Are opens in theaters! For those of you who follow this bloggness I have been hyped for quite some time about this childhood story coming to life. The interviews and reviews have been promising , but the lady and I this weekend will get to see what all the hype has been about. No matter what I honestly will be happy, my childhood imagination will be on the big screen and it won't be shat on by Michael Bay. Oh yeah and there are other things going on today, lot's of things, RAGE things. I am still a man, a gorgeous, 6 foot tall, Asian-American man with a big kid heart. Here are your highlights: Health Care and Harry Reid , it's on his shoulder...we are doomed... For about 6 hrs. or so, we got fooled by a Balloon Boy RED DAWN, the remake is going to be hilarious GOP tells us, don't f...

Get Your Dunkin Wednesday

It is a Wednesday which means most of my time will be spent doing super cool awesomeness at work...I have come to the conclusion that the Right is just plain batshit wingnut racist crazy . Nothing else can explain them trying to run with a Matt Drudge story about a "white kid getting beaten by black kids" and it is all Obama's fault. You don't have to go too far back in memory to see how race plays a part in American politics and divides our country . And since the election of Barack Obama, heck since he was nominated, the crazies , nativists and extremists have come out of the bunkas screaming "gubbament takeover!" These aren't your garden variety racists , no hoods or burning crosses (yet) they are your 2000 racists and they are openly being coddled by the Republican Party . Here are your highlights: Max Baucus come on down , you are next contestant on the Republican Party of No! In Chicago 2016 there WILL BE A DALEYMPICS or else and btw taking ...

Get Your Dunkin Monday

just in case you missed it...Where the Wild Things Are, the latest trailer What a weekend. Frank was super busy, saw Bamford with the lady and friends, then did some super ninja stuff and got dehydrated in the process. Thanks to the care of the lady I got my ninjatorade and am now in super high kicking action! Did I miss anything annoying this weekend? Yep I did and I am not just talking about Lollacraplooza festival. I am talking about lies, lies and more lies and those that write those lies. This week is eventful, but luckily a little slower than last week. So MORE RAGE. MORE OFTEN!! Here are your highlights: Dear journalists do your job and report the misinformation as misinformation and force the Repubs to have a healthy debate, Dear Democrats here is how you handle it going forward David Brooks "they are all crazies" and yes he is talking about the Leader of Republican Party Russshhhhhh Asian American Judges! A Touchable Hologram can only mean one thing.... SORCERY! ...
