Mersassy Dot Com: I Love Crap!

I’m not very deep. I admit it freely. I love crap. I love anything made with hydrogenated oil, I love any tv show that ends with a DNA test or a verdict, I can’t get enough of people.com..... are you picking up what I’m putting down?

So this is why for the life of me I can’t figure out what all the broo-ha-ha was over the Academy Awards this year? Seriously! These films were fucking downers. Somebody pass me an upper so I can stay awake during these dirges. Let’s see, there was a guy who’s career ended and then he tried suicide, a cheating wife who was in a coma, a guy who pretends to be dead, a woman who’s not so nice, women who are discriminated against and a horse in the war. When I go to the movies I want to escape. How do I escape watching a horse in the war?

I am that person who likes the movie where some guy is being thrown out of a window while the guy who throws him out that window says something like “How d'ya like me now?” or some such nonsense and I’m not ashamed to admit it! I paid money to see "Booty Call" and "Dumb and Dumber" (a grown man with bangs...nothing funnier!). I’m still waiting for Undercover Brother to hit Netflix. There is so much crap that is so damn good. It's kinda like junk food: we say we don’t eat it, we say we don’t like it, but we do.

Sir Edmund Gwenn said it best, “Dying is easy, comedy is hard” and I agree. There should be more comedies up for awards. The following scenes are from a few flicks that are some of my favorites. I think they should win awards for most ridiculous, most quotable, best one-liners. I don't care about their pathos, I'm not interested in their camera angles...I just loved how hard I laughed and who I saw them with and how much fun I had watching them. I mean isn’t that what going to the movies is all about?
