the mtv's  

in the category of "bonehead move of the month", i managed to completely forget about the mtv movie awards that aired last night. luckily i taped the replay of it. instead i went to the theaters (how coincidental, miss the movie awards to go see a movie). has anyone else noticed the ridiculous pricing of concession stand food/drinks at theaters?
*collective groan at the over-discussion of this topic*
i mean you'd be stupid NOT to buy the JUMBO FAMILY SIZED POPCORN VALUE PACK because its only 50cents more than the medium (which sells for a grand total of like 10 bucks)
AND to top it all off, the advertisement shown just before the start of my feature presentation (they showed "feature presentation! to get me all excited, then pulled a quick one by slipping one more ad in there) was a campaign tryin to derail illegal dvds and downloading of movies. so after paying 10 dollars to get in the door and sitting there with my CRATE of popcorn, they have the nerve to tell me not to buy illegal movies because that takes away from the movie industry. I THINK YOU'RE TARGETTING THE WRONG GROUP OF PEOPLE. maybe you should show this ad to the people sitting in front of their computers downloading movies instead of the people that paid to sit in your theatre and eat your ridiculously priced food.

but i've digressed (i think i used it right here)

i have since read up on all the mtv festivities missed (kinda defeats the purpose of me taping i know...sue me). i need someone to explain to me how Napoleon Dynamite beat out Kill Bill vol2 or The Incredibles for movie of the year? did somebody take "gosh you can do whatever you want" out of context and vote 2 billion fazillion times for this movie? because from what i remember, i was slightly pissed off after watching napoleon not-so-dynatmite.

and apparantly they award somebody for the "most frightened performance". because i think awarding people for looking scared the entire movie would be stupid, i assume this award is for the most FRIGHTENING performance. frighningly bad.

again i've digressed (this word is awesome!...has my vote for word of the year, which will probably be beat out by a stupid boring word like blog, or car"

i've figured it out. everybody "voted for pedro", cuz they thought it'd be funny, and it turns out those votes counted towards napoleon dynamite. i hope each and every one of ya has an uncle rico that'll throw a well deserved steak in your face (please dont ask me who uncle rico is...just watch the movie, oh wait...dont, because after u'll regret not watching that paint dry on some random wall you walked by).

*sidenote* i always thought a 'vote for pedro' shirt or hat was cool, but i definitely could not pull that off. especially not after bashing the crap out of the movie.

*endnote (i promise i'm done after this)* i actually didnt buy any popcorn last night. i still think the food pricing is insane though.
AND (dont you just love connecting words that allow me to continue to ramble)
today will probably be the last day i leave that poll up. so please go voice your opinion. as long as you dont vote for frickin (or 'flick'-in ... cuz its a movie...get it?) pedro. as pdiddy would say, vote or die! and as the rest of you now are all saying, "shutup a****". feel free to choose that option on the poll.

*edit*
really, i'm sorry...but i just found this out and i thought you should know. guess who napoleon dynamite was produced by? .... MTV FILMS ...
