The temporary Hastings thread

also, I'm obtaining some music by a band of that name.

There's also a book release party for Sleeping with the Fishes at the Mall of America Barnes and Noble at 7 pm Tuesday night; I'm going, despite realizing once again this morning that MOA is the most exhausting place on earth.

i'm exhausted this morning. being back at work sux0r!

John, have you seen "Six Degrees of Seperation" or "Ali"?

aren't he and jada scientologists?

Scientologists are creepy, but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy what talents they have. (That being said, I do like to give my right wing guy friend a hard time for his crush on Greta van Susternen or whatever her name is.)

"Now Katie, hand me the baby, here's your pill... now let's just put this wedding dress on..."

WORKS ON SO MANY LEVELS.

(I understand what you're saying though.)

Also, yeah, I mostly find Scientologists funny. Of course, my views on religion are...odd.

I prefer to think of Flav as a strange dadaist experiment gone awry.

Of course, the reason for your hatred would be that you're a FUCKING NUTJOB who believes absurd, anti-scientific claptrap.

I think the Scientologists are idiotically entertaining. But that's because I don't take them seriously. (And after Tom Cruise's ass-hat-itude about post-mortem depression, it's easy to see why...)

"Independence Day" will get an eternal free pass from me for A) having Vivica A. Fox gyrate around a stripper pole in her first scene; and B) blowing up Harry Connick Jr.

Also, where are you getting your "Will is a Scientologist" info? This is the closest I can come up with:

Are you religious—and have you ever been approached by the Church of Scientology?

I’ve probably read 95% of the words in the Bible. Probably 60% of the Torah. 70% of the Koran. And the thing that is so amazing to me is how everybody, in essence, believes the same thing. I just can’t understand how we get from such similar beliefs to murdering one another. My beliefs are that individuals have to create relationships with God. You can’t listen to what the preacher says—you have to read the Bible yourself and make your interpretation. I’m good friends with Tom Cruise and I just think a lot of the ideas in Scientology are brilliant and revolutionary and non-religious.

Somehow I mixed up my AMERICA NUMBER ONE FUCK YOU SPACE epics.

*One of the few things I agree with my sister-in-law's husband on: tearing that movie apart.

WAY TO GO, DAD!

Er, I mean post-PARTUM depression... I think pretty much everyone agrees about post-mortem depression.

Just from that, that's why I asked, I wasn't sure. I just have heard Jada standing up for Tomkat alot.

I like Independance Day. I always cry.

Jeff Goldblum is hot in that weird "he's a loose cannon" kind of way.

But still I have to question anyone who's close friend with Tom Cruise (I really hate the guy in case you can't tell.)

Here's the link to the MST3K/Armageddon clip.

Sara, by the logic you are presenting, women should REALLY be throwing their panties at HOWIE MANDEL. I really hope that is not the case.

WAHT

but not howie mandel. no way.

See also: my friend who loves teh super-old guys (the youngest star I remember her having a crush on was Martin Sheen. We had a Martin Sheen film festival once!). Also, my insane crush on the guy who plays Hurley on LOST (Jorge Garcia). Okay, I won't lie and say I don't think Naveen Andrews is hotter, but... still, I'm half in love with Hurley!

(Yeah, I said Rose is more attractive than Claire.)

Also, every time I see her, I hear "Maybe the dingoes stole your bahy-bee" in my head...
