CAPTAIN RON TO RECEIVE 3-D THEATRICAL RE-RELEASE
Beloved(?) 80's nautical comedy "Captain Ron" has been unearthed from the Hollywood Pictures vault and given a 3-D overhaul, helmed by "Avatar" creator James Cameron. Says Cameron: "When I first saw the script for the movie, I cautioned director Thom Eberhardt. I said, 'The technology isn't there yet, just wait for it,' but he didn't. Now I think we're finally there and can do this tale justice." The studio has announced a June 15th release date, which pits the picture against the 3-D re-release of "The Gun in Betty Lou's Handbag."
Those watching "The View" yesterday morning were treated to an unusual unscripted moment when, during an argument about same-sex marriage, Walters split open revealing a dark spectre, who rose toward the ceiling and pointed a long bony finger towards ex-Survivor and right-wing nut Hasselbeck.

Order was quickly restored when quipster Whoopi Goldberg made a joke related to her Oscar turn in the hit film "Ghost."
*all gossip is a figment of my imagination, and not intended to be slanderous in any way. So lighten up, celebrities!
Most of this is hilarious, particularly since it so obviously true. I did wince at the notion that even Donald Trump would stoop so low as to attempt to steal Vinnie Barbarino / John Travolta's storied catchphrase during such a trying time in his life.
ReplyDeleteSo many chuckles. But you really did it this time, Stratton...my pet peeve, as you know, is misspelling made-up words. I have never seen "bajillionaire" spelled that way.
ReplyDelete*shakes head slowly and sadly*
You, you are funny. You made my laughter laugh. Then my laughter threw up, but that's totally not your fault. I blame the leftover comedy I had for lunch.
