NewsMax hurts my brain
This isn't news, so much, but I just felt the need to share it with the board. I mean... my mind just locked up after reading this "news" story. God, I seriously can't think straight after reading this.

| Anyone with any sense knows the makers of the unpleasant children's movie "Polar Express" were foolish to unload it just days after the release of the excellent, can't-miss animated hit "The Incredibles." But some in Tinseltown seem eager to lose money. The good news about the failure of "Polar Express," already being nicknamed "Polar Distress," is that it's hurting Bush-bashing fat cat Steve Bing, one of those left-wing tycoons who tried to buy the presidential election for John Kerry. Bing put up half the money for "Polar Distress" (the rest came from the Democrat media leviathan Time Warner) and squandered $14 million to try to defeat the president. The movie cost $170 million to make and $125 million to distribute and market, the Wall Street Journal reported today. It has brought in only $31 million so far, compared with $144 million for the deserving "Incredibles." More fun facts about ding-a-ling Bing: Fellow Bush-hating leftist Sean Penn is suing him. Penn claims producer Bing blacklisted him after that little photo op in Baghdad to support genocidal maniac Saddam Hussein. Note to "Polar Distress" star Tom Hanks, reeling from flop No. 3 this year and scheduled to appear in the Catholic-bashing "Da Vinci Code": Audiences prefer you when you speak your lines and do not like you when you shout your lines. |
