Gay Music Ear Bleed

[dreiser]

I've said more times than my tiny brain can compute that I'm a huge music whore which basically means I like pretty much everything and anything musically. So why is it I looked at the playlist on iTunes for Gay Pride Month and had a quiet internal moment of teenage, "Ewwwwwwww, gross!" upon seeing it?

Most confuzzling people.

Though I do worship Madonna and Abba. The rest? Seriously, wtf? I guess it is gay in terms of gay guy musical tastes but as a lesbian I refuse to claim any of that but Melissa, kd, and Indigo Girls. Mostly because even if I don't particularly like them they do belong to the lesbians.



Oh yes! I saw Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer on Father's Day with Jaimie and David which was much fun and caused me to bounce like a nerdy fangirl because I looooooove Silver Surfer but as fucking cool as he was I have one major complaint.

Beware, movie spoilers below!



Galactus as a fucking energy cloud?! What.The.Fuckity.Duck?! I wanted to laugh at the huge fucking purple hat! I wanted to hear the booming voice! I wanted to witness the badassed hand that could hold Earth in its palm! But what do I get instead?

Disembodied Mildly Threatening Energy Cloud!

It was so lame people. At first I thought it was a cloud of Galactus' bad breath or something. Like a wave of cosmic gingivitis coming to rot the planet. I hate energy clouds. It's so Star Trek.

Silver Surfer still rules though. And so does Laurence Fishburne doing his voice.

In the comics Surfer didn't really angst that much though. He was all eager to discover the universe through being Galactus' herald. Though at one point Galactus squashed part of his concious to make it easier for Surfer to pick the yummiest planets for him to eat. In terms of killing Galactus to save his world, well, he couldn't do that. He was just a normal guy and the only way he could save his home planet of Zenn-La was to offer himself up as Galactus herald.


I agree in some way his sudden turn about was lame but it did follow the original comic book storyline which made me happy. My only bitch point was Galactus as that damn energy cloud.
