The BITCH Reviews : Mama Mia!

Now although this film would be one that I, the BITCH would have put a miss on, my best friend decided that we had to see it.  Strangely enough, I have to say that it wasn't all that bad.

Although people in the theater would not shut up - why do you come to a movie if you are going to talk all the way through it?  And why the hell do you look at and send text messages in the middle of a god damn movie?

It was I who lucked out with the gaggle of young girls who couldn't keep their cell phones in their pockets.  Other than that, the movie was better than I could have ever expected.  Meryl Streep looked amazing, and played a 50+ female who was living her second childhood, singing, dancing, jumping on beds and running away from men, while the three leading men kept things light and fun.

A well made musical movie that will have you laughing all the way through.  Even more so if you buy the M & M's and play 'hit the person with the cell phone' all the way through the movie.

Enough Said.

What gets noticed

After spending a day on a TV set, for a foreign series that was filmed right here in my home town, I got a first had view of what really gets noticed.

Why did that gal get the speaking role in that TV show you recently saw?  Well let me tell you how it worked on this set I was on.  

The gal that hiked her skirt the highest - so high that you could get a full view of what was underneath, was on a first name basis with the assistant director.  Although what she failed to realize, is he was only talking about taking her away for a day - to do what, I'm sure I can leave your dirty minds to imagine - and used her as a pawn in the filming, so he could paw her all day.

Amazing how these things work isn't it?  

But what females expect.  They flaunt everything for the world to see, then flinch and whimper when guys only use and abuse them for sex.  Get over it.  If you don't have the self esteem to cover up and know that one day, a guy will fall for you for something more than sex, don't come crying to us when you get your heart broken with every guy who takes you as easy because you have your skirt over your head.

On this TV shoot, the funny thing about it was that you could tell who would have been the town whore!

The BITCH Reviews : The Dark Knight

Okay, let's be honest. We all thought that Heath Ledger getting the possible nod for an oscar was just an excuse to give a dead actor a chance to win an award.  I mean what the hell would a dead actor do with an oscar right?  Well maybe we should take a look at his actual performance and realize that he just might deserve the damn thing.  Why should we stop trying to decide who should get the award and let the best man or woman win.

Why should he get it when a 'living' actor could get it, and use it to boost their asking price for any of the next Hollywood films?  The fact that his performance was better than everyone elses would have nothing to do with it right?

As for the film, man alive this film rocks.  From the beginning of the film, it took you on a 'get in, buckle up and hold on' ride from the very get-go.  Christian Bale plays his usual tormented character which perfectly suits the Batman franchise, while Heath Ledger plays a pyschopathic killer who wants nothing more than to undo all the good that has been accomplished.  What ensues is a movie filled with moral dilemmas, twists, turns and a few odd explosions for the more squeamish in the audience.  Aaron Eckhart has a strong supporting role that toys with the line that we all walk between good and evil as well, just to thicken the plot a wee bit more.

Overall, it makes you wonder if what Harvey Dent's character says is true.  "You either die the hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villan."

And as for Heath Ledger's apparent drug induced death and what that should do to impact his oscar chances?  Leave the guy alone.  He's dead already and his craft should be respected, if you can't get your noses out of his private life. 

Enough Said.

Another take on the B-word...

I found this little gem of an article on the washingtonpost.com and it captures a lot of what needs to be said, and what is already said about that wonderful b-word that we all have a love-hate relationship with.

We love to use it, but hate to be called it.  Maybe if we really look at why we use it on the people we do, we would actually discover that it is more of a compliment than a derogatory comment.

In my case, people tried to shut me down by using the said b-word (I am intentionally not using it now as I know you are waiting for me to) to describe me.  Instead of being offended, appaled or changing my ways, I liked what it could stand for and thanked those people for giving me a new object in life.  

That object?  Annoying the hell out of everyone else that had thought that using such a word would put strong women like myself now.  Now I can honestly say thank you for creating the BITCH that I am today.  (Are you happy now?)


Dazed and Confused

A question I received only a couple of hours ago got me to thinking.  Here is what she said.

Question:  My best friedn of 23 years has recently told me she doesn't want me to be her maid of honor becuase I'm too busy.  There is two weeks to the wedding, and I'm not liking the fact that she doesn't want me ot be her maid of honour anymore.  What do I do?

-Dazed and Confused-


Well, let me see.  Your best friend doesn't want you to be her maid of honor.  First of all, it doesn't matter when she made the decision.  Get over it.  You aren't her best friend any more, this is just her way of telling you.  Get a clue.

Second, tell her where she can stick it.  Why do you want to tag along on her special day when she hasn't thought that you are special enough anymore?  She won't kick you out of the wedding party, because then she would have to find someone else, and she will look like a bitch in front of all of her family and friends.  If you decide to go through with it, it will be a miserable affair that will leave you bitter and resentful.

Tell her you aren't interested and be done with it.

The BITCH on Facebook...

Well it seems that I have joined the masses on Facebook.  You can find me here.  And it's easier for you to bitch and complain at me there....

Let's Set The Record Straight

Okay, it seems like some of you out there don't know why I am the bitch that I am.  I've gotten the question over and over again and I'm going to set the record straight once and for all.  Are you all listening?

Why am I so bitchy?  Well if you had to answer questions like this all day, I think you would be to.  I am sick and tired of putting up with the shallow end of the gene pool, and how everyone thinks we need to save them.  Really, if they want to put the plastic bag over their head, tie it, and breath, why don't we let them.  Enough said.

Next, why should you listen to me?  Because you know you are going to.  I'm the little devil that tells you everything that you don't want to hear, but is the god damn truth.  (and now I'm sure that someone is going to yell bloody murder for me taking the god's name in vein.)  Really, if you don't know why you are listening to me, or reading this, then stop.  And if you sent a question, didn't like the answer and are now bitching at me for telling you how the world really works, get a life.  Got it?

The Bitch Is Back.

Well many of you have met me before.  

I'm the person who walks down the middle of the sidewalk and makes you all move.

I'm the one who laughs when you trip on your shoe laces, and doesn't try to hide it.

I'm the gal who answers your boyfriends questions about you, and makes him realize he deserves so much more.

I'm the one you love to hate, because I can say this, and you can't.

Any questions?  Let me know.
