FERRIS BUELLER'S 2012 SUPER BOWL AD

Yup!
Matthew Broderick has made a Ferris Bueller knock off ad for Honda.
It will be aired during the 2012 Super Bowl.
The ad is clever but we all know that present day Matthew is gross.
He hits on the woman in the Honda CRV, he freaks out the children at the museum and I think the walrus is SJP and is doing something creepy with the stuffed Panda bear in the car.
For a man who has been forever performing on Broadway with Nathan Lane, you'd think the musical number would have been better LOL.
The one thing that really can't be ignored - the pounds of makeup on this old geezer.
In Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Cameron's father's Ferrari licence plate # was: NRVOUS.
In this Honda ad, Matthew's licence plate is SOCHOIC...and I think it means: SO CHOICE.
At first glance I thought it was SOCIO as in SOCIOPATH.
Honestly, I did.
This years Super Bowl has succeeded in pissing me off before it has even begun.
Obviously they are gearing the whole shemozzle towards us Gen X'ers and the chosen two 80's icons,
Matthew and Madonna (doing the 1/2 time show), would not be my choice to represent.

THE FLAMINGO KID 1984

The Flamingo Kid was on TV Saturday night.

Matt Dillon looks so young in this movie, I felt bad watching it as an old lady.
The Flamingo Kid was made after The Outsiders, Matt Dillon looks younger in this.
I love the 1950's and this movie is full of all that kitschy nostalgia. It was directed by Gary Marshall who happens to have created my favorite TV show of all time, Happy Days.
PS: Matt Dillon is my Michael Schoeffling and I have always believed that he is a Matt Dillon knock off.
I love them both, but Matt, just that much more :)
Anyway, here's the trailer for The Flamingo Kid, it's basically the whole movie HA.

DEAR MR. KOTTER, JUAN EPSTEIN WONT BE IN CLASS TODAY, SIGNED EPSTEIN'S MOTHER

Robert Hegyes, who played  Juan Luis Pedro Felipo de Huevos Epstein the Jewish Puerto Rican Sweat Hog, in 1970s comedy "Welcome Back, Kotter," died on Thursday at age 60.
The way he played that character was awesome!

My all time favorite Epstein quotes, including one that by today's standards would be politically incorrect:

* "Do you know what it's like being Puerto Rican Jew? Half my family steals clothes, the other half tailors them!"

** "I got a note from my mother anytime I can."

*** "Hey, Mr. Kotter, I got a note!"
all his excuse notes said: "Signed Epstein's Mother.

**** "Up your Nose with a Rubber Hose!"

BEAUTY BECOMES THE BEAST

Growing old when you are famous for your looks.....
Bridget Bardot - YIKES!


Grace Slick.



Val Kilmer - OMG!


Kelly LeBrock


Carrie Fisher

DRUNK BEHIND THE WHEEL

I love this next bit of news:

Pat Sajak: Vanna White and I were drunk on "Wheel of Fortune".

Way back in the day, Parker's father had that show on every night.
As a kid I never understood Wheel Of Fortune and now I know why HA.
I know it's corny but I've got to say this anyway;
Thankfully they put the Margaritas down and stopped this sillyness because it's illegal to drink and get behind the wheel.
FILE - In this Sept. 29, 2007 file photo, Co-host Vanna White and host Pat Sajak make an appearance at Radio City Music Hall for a taping of celebrity week on "Wheel of Fortune" in New York. Sajak said in an interview on ESPN2 this week that the long-time game show duo would occasionally walk over to a nearby restaurant for "two or three or six" margaritas during a break in taping early "Wheel of Fortune" shows in California. Sajak has hosted the show since 1981, and White joined him a year later. (AP Photo/Peter Kramer, file)

A CASE OF THE UGLIES

Imagine your mom is Christie Brinkley and you look like your dad - Billy Joel.

Imagine your mom is Demi Moore and you look like your father - Bruce Willis.

Imagine your father is Keith Richards and you dodged a MAJOR bullet and look like your mom - Patti Hansen.

SKINNY 'OL DEMI


Demi has been released from the hospital.
It has been reported that she was rushed by ambulance 2 days ago because she had a seizure.
Was she snorting Ritalin to lose more weight?
She shouldn't snort Ritalin or any other children's, I mean Ashton's, old prescriptions even if they are laying about the house.
I wonder if she chased it with straight Absolute a la Jules in St. Elmo's Fire?
I love Jules.
I like Demi Moore, not her hair nor her choice in husbands but I have always liked Demi.
