The End is Nigh

I get sidetracked a lot when I'm futzing around the Interwebs. I go 'here' to look something up, and I wind up way over "there". And neither "here" nor "there' is where you usually find the fun stuff. The "in-between" fun stuff, if you know what I'm talkin' about.

And sometimes you find stuff that you wish you never knew about. Maybe something with two girls and a cup or recent pictures of Madonna's arms. Scary stuff. Stuff that kills a small portion of your soul just by you knowing that it's out there. Stuff you wish could be erased forever, just by taking the blue pill instead of that red one.

I came across something like that yesterday. I was just doing some harmless browsing on IMDB. Looking up a horror movie that I was thinking about watching on Netflix that evening. Let me tell you...IMDB is a horribly addictive gateway drug. It leads to bad things. One minute you are looking up a director or an actress or writer, and the next? Well, horrible things happen. It happened to me. And since this is the point of this whole post, I guess I had better share it with you.

Here it is.

A remake of Footloose is currently filming.

 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

See, I won't even click on the link. I learned my lesson about seeing grotesque shit years ago. I hate some of the images stuck in my head!

Verdant Earl said...

Sybil - It was all a ruse. That's really just a link to the IMDB page of the new film. It's thoroughly disgusting.

Badger said...

Thank you so much. That news has fucked my day rigid.

Paticus said...

Why god why?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Heff said...

I refuse to click the link as well. At least Kevin Bacon is too old now to play the lead....I HOPE......

Slyde said...

the footloose film has been working for a while.

it was supposed to star the dreamy zak effron, but i believe he dropped out at the last minute.

why do i know so much about this movie?

Verdant Earl said...

Badger - most welcome.

Paticus - There is no God. This proves it...

Heff - Wow, I really SHOULD have linked to something gross there. Missed opportunity.

Slyde - Probably because it has the word "foot" in it's title. Hang ten, brother.

hello haha narf said...

i'm now concerned that i don't know enough about madonna's arms. what am i missing?

Verdant Earl said...

Becky - Do a quick Google Image search for "Madonna's arms" and you will see. I guess you could say she is in healthy shape, but I can't imagine wanting those arms wrapped around me.

white rabbit said...

I found a Book of Revelations quiz. I got 9/10 on it which is an improvemennt on the usual for pissing movies. Nothing about badgers or trivia, though...

white rabbit said...

ps googled Madonna's arms. I may need to go to the bathroom...

Verdant Earl said...

Wabbit - those arms made you shit yourself, eh?

RW said...

Is this the new version of rickcolling? Send people to the IMDB page on the Footloose remake?

Wait... I'll try it and let you know...

Verdant Earl said...

RW - see? It was what I said it was. Like I said...I missed an opportunity here.

savannah said...

i didn't look and i'm not going to google madonna's arms. just the thought of either has made me ill, sugar! (ok, not really, but i'm using any excuse not to do any more work today.) xoxoxo

Verdant Earl said...

Savannah - I don't feel like working either. Maybe it's because I was up until 4:30 in the AM. Damn...I need a nap.

Poppy said...

Is its premise even relevant anymore?

I think towns have way more to worry about than dancing...

Verdant Earl said...

Poppy - it never was relevant. This is all due to the Glee-ification of the country. Gah!

Bruce Johnson said...

Lord, my wife loves that movie. Whats next....a remake of Xanadu?

Verdant Earl said...

Bruce - Please God, no!
