Phone Booth

I'm watching this movie on FX right now. This is so boring that it's almost interesting. Like whoever made this thinks that they're making a grand statement about humanity. Instead it's just stupid. There are crazy prostitutes that just waste time and make noise. Then a guy kills a pimp and the police show up. So this guy has spent the entire movie stuck inside A PHONE BOOTH. OMG. It's just a limp struggle from this guy and from the police. The police ask the dude something and he's like "No, dude, I'm in a phone booth. Too busy on this phone to cooperate. Sorry." Then the police just sit there for a few more hours watching this guy make a phone call. There's still like thirty minutes left in this thing. I sure hope he gets the courage to leave that phone booth.

Also, since it's on FX they've replaced all the curses with meaningless garble. I love the way they do this. They just paste the word over the original. They don't try to make it sound coherent. I watched a bit of American History X on FX and my favorite edit was "DEREK SOME ....black guys ARE OUTSIDE SMASHING YOUR CAR!"


oh god. the last line of this crap was "If a phone rings, you have to answer it don't you?" What? WHAT!? No, you don't. You actually don't have to answer a phone if it rings. You do indeed have the option of not answering the phone. In fact, it's easier than answering the phone. You know what you have to do to not answer a phone? Nothing. Next time a phone rings, don't answer. Show Kiefer Sutherland how it's done.
