gotta love
him and Eddie Murphy in “Coming to America” though.

Good point....

Don't knock Arsenio toooo much
The videotape scene from Amazon Women from the Moon was pretty funny. Here it is:

It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops.

Sorry - it was a vignette and not just the videotape bit
Hadn’t seen it for while.

i remember I was at Six Flags a long
time ago. I had waited in a long line to ride the Texas Giant and was next to go when the attendants stop my friends and I only to let ‘Color Me Bad’ skip the line and ride on it alone. Bastards. I was none too pleased. Of course, my sister was there and was going crazy.

I would rather have to sit through a concert with
Gerardo, Snow and Rick Astley than have to listen to Color Me Bad

yeah the white guys voice is annoying to me
the lyrics are funny
“would you be my wife”
“cause all I wanna do is Sex you up”
sounds more like would you be my affair or mistress

I like the guy that's got the severely receding hairline
That just screams “boy band” to me.

No fashion expert here...
But who in their right mind in any time period in history would think that wearing a white suit with a gold, red, blue and green right sleeve would look cool?….

Don't see why not
his blog, after all.

Oh
I have no problem with it; I was just wondering. His last post made me wonder if there was some unifying theme throughout all the videos.

I was always found this song to be of very poor taste
This and George Michael’s ‘I Want Your Sex’
I didn’t grow up in the strickest of households, but the ‘s’ word was pushing the limits. For a 10-11 year old kid to hear this song being played all over the TV and radio was very confusing.
I really liked the hip-hop vibe this song had, and understood why it was such a huge hit with everybody… but I was so embarrased to hear them sing ‘sex’ so deliberately

I'm always amused
that so many Americans get so queasy about sex, but movies where hundreds get killed in horrendously graphic ways don’t cause a second thought.

I think that's probably not true, generally
But even if it were, I don’t know that would shock you. They don’t represent anything similar.

How is it not true?
For God’s sake, the FCC went into an absolute tizzy when Janet Jackson popped a boob out, and every day there are movies or TV shows where someone gets killed in graphic ways.

I have to agree with you
The CSI’s, NCIS’s and Criminal Minds are constantly coming up with graphic new displays of dead bodies and the like (and in the case of criminal minds, graphic explorations of the psyches of the guys that killed them). People don’t seem to have a problem with that, yet you can’t say “fuck” or show any tits on network TV without people going ballistic.
Not that I have any problem at all with gore, cussing or tits, but it definitely is odd that the two fun ones out of those three are the ones that are banned.
Hank is 7 runs below a zombie replacement at first base. Do you realize how terrible that is? Zombie’s can’t think, they’re slow, and they’re often ejected from the game for eating opposing baserunners’ brains. - Ben quantifies Hank Blalock

The part thats wierdest to me
I really don’t care if my neighbor gets horizontal with his girlfriend, yet I don’t want my neighbor unloading a MAC-10 into her chest. Thats what makes it even wierder for me that Sex is more taboo than violence in entertainment.

It's a false dichotomy
You’re comparing a real sexual act to simulated violence. Shows with simulated sex, as well as shows that just show hot girls, get gargantuan ratings, so I’m not sure where your belief is even coming from. Conversely, American news generally refrains from showing actual violence in Iraq or anywhere else—we see much more crying in the aftermath than charred bodies and heads exploding.
