Important News Bulletin (originally written on January 13 2008)

Attention, blog readers.


We interrupt your current activities to bring you a very important news bulletin from Random Radio.

Today's Random Radio commentary is on unrealistic circumstances in movies.

Of course, we all know that movies are not real life, and things are supposed to be… different. But usually, things are different in an exaggerated way—like when a car jumps between two cliffs, or when one guy is able to fight off a gang of ten with his martial arts expertise… that sort of thing.

Well, today I was watching the movie THE PRINCE & ME with Julia Stiles, where this American girl just happens to fall in love with the prince of Denmark, only she is unaware of who he is.

I know, I know… total fantasy… just like it should be… 'cause it's a movie. Right. I get that.

But the "unreal" part that just boggles my mind is when she discovers that he's the prince of Denmark. Rather than feel pleasantly surprised, her twisted intellectual mindset somehow causes her to become very angry. Yes. She is angry because he did not tell her that he was a prince. Damn him!!! He lied and told her he was just a regular guy.



Uh, yeah. I know I'd be pissed.
