Hump Day & Chill

Today I am going to Hump Day & Chill by seeing Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer at the world famous Chinese theater in Hollywood, CA.

Oppenheimer is being shown in IMAX there the way it is intended by Nolan to be seen thus I am gonna watch it in all it's resplendent glory.

For those not in the know at one point they shut the historic theater down and revamped it to show movies in IMAX so far I have seen only one movie in the format there that being The Batman. After today it will be two.

Anyway if you wanna know where I'm gonna Hump Day & Chill for three hours today it's with me, myself and Oppenheimer at the Chinese in Hollywood. 

Cheers to air conditioning!

Weird Science

THEY WENT FROM ZEROES TO HEROES IN ONE FANTASTIC WEEKEND. If you can't get a date... make one! After proving himself the king of heartfelt teen flicks with Sixteen Candles and The Breakfast Club, writer-director John Hughes infused the genre with a hefty dose of wacked-out sci-fi comedy in Weird Science, a film where every teenage boy's wildest fantasies come to life. Perennially picked-on high school nerds Gary (Anthony Michael Hall, Sixteen Candles) and Wyatt (Ilan Mitchell-Smith) are sick of their status at the bottom of the social food chain. Using Wyatt's computer, the two hatch a plan to create their dream woman - and following a massive power surge, that woman unexpectedly appears in the form of Lisa (Kelly LeBrock). Gorgeous, intelligent, and blessed with limitless magic powers, Lisa makes the boys' dreams come true... but what about Wyatt's gun-toting psycho older brother Chet (Bill Paxton), and the two bullies (Robert Downey Jr and Vamp's Robert Rusler) determined to put them back in their place? Inspired by EC Comics and boosted by a killer soundtrack (including the classic title theme by Oingo Boingo), Weird Science has never looked better than in this new 4K Ultra-HD Blu-ray edition, including an extended version of the film and hours of bonus content.

Mic Drop!

Mic Drop!
Cardi B

With Bebe Rehxa nearly losing an eye, Pink getting receiving the ashes of someone's dead mother, giving a concert has become risky business. 

Not sure when this off trend of attacking superstar performers came into vogue, but send it back to where it came from (Hell I'm guessing.) 

Cardi B is having none of this foolishness! A concert goer threw a drink at her while giving a concert in Vegas and Cardi pelted the concert goes with a mic.

This sh!t has gotten out of control. I've gone to concerts where there were mosh pits and not once any person attending tried to assault the musicians on stage. Seriously if you nail the star attraction and it hurts them badly enough and they have to pump the brakes on the show, then WTF did you pay money for you dimwits?!?! Not to mention you screw the other people attending out of their hard earned money that they paid to be there. So F#ck You!!!

Adele called out concertgoers engaged in such bad behavior: “Have you noticed how people are like, forgetting fucking show etiquette at the moment? People just throwing shit on stage, have you seen them? I fucking dare you. Dare you to throw something at me and I’ll fucking kill you."

I second that Adele.

Here's an article on concert going etiquette, you're welcome

Shirtless Sunday

Gus Kenworthy

This episode of Shirtless Sunday comes straight outta Fire Island Pines. It's former freestyle skier and present actor Gus Kenworthy.

Gus is looking might lickable sporting nothing but a pair of swim trunks walking the plank on Fire Island.

Remember Gus from American Horror Story: 1984? If you're a horror fan like me, of course you do!

So give a right handed salute to Gus on this edition of Shirtless Sunday!

Wing It!

Hot Ones!
Aubrey Plaza

Hey, let's wing it today it's National Chicken Wing day!!! I personally love chicken wings, especially if they are hot 🔥 

Look, it's Aubrey Plaza on THE show about chicken wings Hot Ones.

I've seen the show once and all I did was get hungry and jealous of the people chowing down on the wings. So much so I went out and bought some immediately after.

Now that I'm thinking about them I just might, perhaps, maybe, OK definitely get some today.

It's a celebration you know!

It Was 40 Years Ago...

Yesterday Madonna's debut album, Madonna turned 40 years old!  Proving that time is fleeting and our youth is but a waking dream...

I remember the first time I became aware of Madonna was when I was 18 at an eighteen and over club in Seattle, WA called Skoochie's. I was on the dance floor when this video came on with this woman withing on the asphalt and singing about burning up for someone's love. The song was naturally Burning Up, obviously. I was so taken by her bold in your face sexuality and giving zero f#cks attitude I became a Madonna fan on the spot!!!

Also even though I was there with a girl I was seeing I should have ditched her and came out of the closet on the spot.

This album was my jam when it came out and I play many songs off of it still to this day.

Yeah, 40 years old it is, but the memory is a fresh as it was when it happened.

Michael's Musings

Got My Mind On Your Body And Your Body On My Mind
Michael Shinafelt

Like the rest of the world I saw the Barbie Movie this past week. Like most of you (which seems to be everyone who's seent it) I loved it! 

Summertime and the living is easy and al that jazz. This week I will catch Oppenheimer, then as far as I'm concerned this will end my tour of duty of movies I need to see in a theater for the rest of the season. Yeah, that's correct Minions that will make a whopping two movies I saw in the theater all summer. What's on your movie agenda???

On this day in 1979 The Amityville Horror was released in 1979 - Oink! 🐖

Why not treat yourself to a good time instead of waiting for someone else to do it?

Finally got around to watching Madonna's Madame X tour on Paramount + I thought it was great! I get why other people didn't it was not a Madonna concert it was performance art

She's not dead, she's just having an existential crisis

I don't mind being the villain in your story because your the clown in mine

At the rate things are going they are going to cancel shampoo so bald people won't be offended

Apparently X marks the spot now, if you know, you know

Some people should wear a leash in public 

Woman Crush of the Week - RIP Sinead O'Connor I saw her live at The Greek Theater in Los Angeles and it was amazing, chills went through me. 

The trailer for Exorcist: Believer dropped, I have questions 

Kudos to America Ferrara who pulled of the monologue of the year in Barbie 

Have you ever been chilling out and think...Damn! this is real life!

Happy Belated Birthday to Jennifer Lopez who is 54 and slaying

It's a Cruel Summer, yeah we're having a heat wave as predicted
