02-19/He's Not that into Seafood

Ah yes, finally our silver screens have been graced with a beautiful "chick-flick" that pertains to a younger crowd. So far, all we had to go on this year was "Nights in Rodanthe." For me Richard Gere having Raisin Bran with Wheat Germ in the morning, after a night of Viagra banging, doesn't get me as emotional as before.

I heard about the book, "He's Just Not that Into You," a few years back, co-written by that funny man's man Greg Behrendt. He also wrote another 'self help' book called, "It's Called a Breakup because its Broken." I must be living in a fantasy world, because I would have never have guessed that this happens in real life. Thanks Greg!

I won't spoil any surprises, kids. So don't worry.

This movie takes place on the planet of Zuron, where no one eats food, but just drinks fuel called 'Ketel' and 'Guse.' I'd like to say the movie centers on carbon-life GiGi, who just can't get a guy to call her back....Hrmmmph! I hate when that happens!

Justin Long plays Karthod, the un-tucked collared shirt, with tie loose around your neck bar manager, who tells GiGi how it is. Side stories include incredibly hot and married blah blah who is banging incredibly hot blah blah, but is married to cute and sweet-but-suspicious blah blah. He just wasn't ready to get married guys!!!! You know how that goes.

After the warriors of rival planet Zumar storm the rebels with large farm equipment and kitchen appliances, all that is left is Karthod and GiGi, who now love each other and have to procreate to save humanity. Years later, their story is told by the high wizard Menathos, who on the 7th day of every 7th month goes to Mt. Kiriapu and shouts it out to the crowd celebrating below.

In all honesty there was one part that did get me a little emotional, which would ruin the movie if I told you. ( If I haven't said too much already...Shhhh!!! ) It includes my least favorite actors, but it did get to me, which at least made me give in and say, yes I enjoyed the movie.

I'm just glad that Greg was able to get the word out to these ladies. These signs all mean something, duh.

Whatever. Go see it after a nice meal at TGI Friday's.
