If Houseplants Can Blog, Can They Become Film Critics?
Update: High School Musical 3
Because I know you’ve all been sitting out there just dying to hear about HSM3 (I’m looking at you, Lex) …
No full review until opening day, but just to tide you over so you can sleep until then:
it will involve
singing and dancing … CHECK
broken hearts … CHECK
Troy and Gabriela singing some sappy duets …CHECK (and for added specialness, in one of them they’re singing in the rain!)
and Sharpay trying to pull some stunt or another … CHECK, but a mildly clever twist on this
but by the end, they’ll all be joining hands and singing their finale as they go off their separate ways to college … CHECK and CHECK
All for now, you’ll have to wait for the rest until later.

As if the print media doesn’t have enough to bitch about, what with all the bloggers out there invading their turf, now from Japan we have Midori-san, the Blogging Houseplant! No, I’m not kidding.
I have no idea if this is for real or not; it’s entirely possible this is all a big publicity stunt by the cafe where Midori-san hangs out, and it’s really the dishwasher doing the blogging. But apparently, Japanese company KAYAC Co, Ltd has developed an interface that allows Midori-san, a Sweetheart Hoya, to blog its plant-ish thoughts for all the (Japanese-speaking) world to see. Maybe for the next phase they can put Midori-san in front of a big-screen TV with surround sound, put on some DVDs, and let Midori-san try writing movie reviews. I wonder what Midori-san would think about Little Shop of Horrors …
Okay, off to a screening of High School Musical 3. Let me guess: it will involve singing and dancing, broken hearts, Troy and Gabriela singing some sappy duets, and Sharpay trying to pull some stunt or another, but by the end, they’ll all be joining hands and singing their finale as they go off their separate ways to college. I’ll let you know later how accurate my prediction is.
TEAM HUDGENS!
There is a standee of this at local multiplexes with the WHOLE GANG, and Hudgens is wearing some slinky black dress and heels.
I NEED THAT STANDEE! Perhaps eBay will help me in this quest.
Voynar, is there a nail painting-turned-pillowfight scene between The Hudgness and Le Tis?
That would OWN.
