When Shallow Goes Deep: Volume I

A compilation of "quotes" that made me go "huh?"

In a contest that asked participants the definition of a man or woman:

1. I am the woman who believes in myself. Nothing is impossible, as a women rule the world!

Sweetheart, before you rule the world, take the "a" before women.

2. I am the Man because she said so.
Who's she? Ah, must be your mother.


3. Why am I the man? Cause what I'm wearing represents me as the man I am.

So if you're not wearing anything, you're nothing.

4. I am the man as I am going shout to the world that skinny guys can be cool too!

Shush. Order your whey protein and hit the gym - pronto!

5. A little girly on the outside, I'm still a fully grown man on the inside.

Not a girl, now a man, not yet a woman. 

Medusa Got Me Stoned

First of all, I'm glad I didn't pay extra for the 3D version of the movie. Second of all, I'm glad I didn't get popcorn or the calories wouldn't have been worth it.

In my opinion, 80% of remakes are headed for disaster. Most try to "own"  the story but only end up bastardizing the plot. To compensate, they bombard us with state-of-the-art 3D effects.

Everyone who's read Edith Hamilton's Greek Mythology would've had Medusa turn the scriptwriters into stone for skewing, nay, rewriting the mythology. Perseus and Andromeda not ending up together was like destroying one of the Romeo and Juliet's of Greek mythology. I mean, it's cool to have Andromeda become the queen bee and ruling Argus on her own, but Perseus ending up with Io? That's like saying Perseus was sneaking around with his father's mistress...what a dysfunctional family.

And where did these strange fantasy creatures come from? Bat-like monsters and gigantic scorpions? Was this movie under budget and sharing the set with The Mummy?

Lastly, did I really hear Perseus (Sam Worthington) say "Don't look that bitch in the eye" when they were hunting down Medusa? Blasphemy! Blasphemy! Release the Kraken!
