Rock of ages

It has its problems. It has a lot of problems.

However, the music gave me lots of warm, squishy feelings from hanging out in my brothers' room when I was a kid. If you also get warm squishy feelings from More than Words and Wanted Dead or Alive, then you'll like it, too.

Halfway through the film, I was already thinking how it was like Burlesque except Burlesque was done better.

This is also probably the only time I'll be rooting for Alec Baldwin and Russell brand to kiss. Actually, my mom hated all of the story except for their characters finally getting together. When I told her one member of the audience was loudly laughing, she was very disappointed.

"tsk tsk For shame"

Burlesque is a musical about a young woman arriving in LA to make it big but she ends up working at a Burlesque except it's deeply in debt...
It's all original music and has Cher, Stanley Tucci and Kristen Bell...as a Brunette which I think is better on her, actually.

Did you ever watch Friends? There was this episode where Chandler and Joey watch so much porn that the real world becomes confusing. This happened to me in the summer of 2008 or 2009, I read so much Torchwood slash online that I began just expecting all males in tv or films to kiss each other and then it was confusing that they weren't...

So, when there seemed to e chemistry, I just thought I had my slash goggles on...

I never crushed on Tom Cruise as Lestat. I did crush on Stuart Townsend as Lestat. I never crushed on Tom Cruise until The Last Samurai. He was a fine male specimen and all but I didn't really crush him here. However, I did crush heavily on Peter Vincent which is a similar role with the tight pants and shagging and drinking but he also had the whole vampire hunter thing working for him...

I have the DVD of Burlesque actually! :) I'm not sure it's all original, though? I watched Alan Cumming singing That's Life on the extras, though I believe that was cut, perhaps the rest of the music was original.

I actually watch Friends re-runs every weeknight. So yes, I saw that episode recently and that was so funny. I know the feeling, too, I had a slash time like that!

But yes, I was sure it was just my slash goggles here.

I realised I never crushed on him post-crazy, really. Until now.

Tight pants, shagging and drinking are apparently appealing to me ;)
