#222 - idol and eo


well, what else am i gonna do? i'm stuck inside on the couch all day. but i'm actually pretty happy with this week's idol results. i went 2 for 3. i'm really glad kris allen got through, i really like him and i don't think he would've had a chance in the wildcard show so it's a good thing he made it through tonight with a cool performance of "man in the mirror" (although he did have help from the other guys on the show tanking). i actually almost bought the song on itunes, and then i regained sanity and bought michael jackson's version instead (i also bought "another part of me," does anyone remember that song? it wasn't big at all, but it was on captain EO at disneyland, y'know, the 3-D movie? i loved that show, it was weird though). and allison iraheta was a pretty easy pick for the girls. i can see why that weird emo-guy got through, but i still don't like him. i think he's unbearably (and embarrassingly) tacky, the very opposite of what i like about that kris allen guy. but then again i can see why my other pick, matt giraud, didn't go through, he sang a crappy song (i think so at least, despite what the awards shows say, i can't stand that song) and a junk performance. so, here's my running list for the wildcard show:

- ann marie boskovich
- anoop desai
- matt giraud

oops, that's only three... i really don't care to hear much anyone else, so what the hell, let's throw in tatiana and norman gentle again, just for kicks. ha.

wow, okay, i just googled "captain eo" and read the wikipedia description of the storyline... man, someone was definately on shrooms when they made this movie, just read this:

man, it's funny what we'll accept as kids huh? i mean, if i had never seen this before and just watched it for the first time today i'd be totally freaking out! it's so gross all those puppet creatures and whatever... eeeewwwww! see what i mean (and imagine it in 3-D too)?


for some reason i thought this was so awesome! man, and that fricken' elephant, why the hell did they keep him around, all he does is crap up everything, geez! i used to pretend i was michael jackson and say "we're going in..." before every ride at disneyland after watching this. and then my aunty would pretend to be the evil queen and say "you... think me... beautiful?! ahh!"


c'mon, you know you were walking out of that theater singing "another pwat-ta me" right? but man i loved it when i was a kid, and i was so sad when they replaced it with "honey i blew up the audience" or something... what a sad, mislead child i was. but i guess there's just something about disneyland (and places called "the magic eye theater") that compells and almost forces you to love creepy things huh?
