DREAMGIRLS: Believe The Hype!

I know everybody and their momma has . . .is . . . or will be doing coverage on all of the hype surrounding this years most glamorous blockbuster, DREAMGIRLS. But it would be remiss to have attended a special preview and not share my thoughts . . .

Still, what can I say that hasn’t already been said? DREAMGIRLS is absolutely WONDERFUL! INCREDIBLE! FABULOUS! DREAMY! EMOTIONAL! UPLIFTING! THE SHIZNIT!

GFK Is Telling All Of His Business, Dame Dash is Still On The Block and More Movie Musings . . .

The Block Is Hot . . .??
When I get through messing around with ya’ll – I’mma hit the block, real savvy like. But definitely not on any hoe shit. *Strikes a diva pose* What the heck am I talking about you ask? Well, Myspace is aight, but I’m going to check for Dame Dash and Kwame DeCuir’s latest endeavor, “Block Savvy” . . .

When it’s all said and done, I’m curious to know what my cyber empire will amount to. Hmmm . . . who will I join an alliance with? I’m not sure just yet. I’m trying to get draped in wealth, both off and online. *ha ha* What about you? Anyone want to join me? I’ll be re-visiting this topic so stay tuned. This whole “Block Savvy” thing might be EL LAME-O. . .

I have mixed emotions about my boo, the Ghostface Killah, making the decision to spout off all of his personal business in his book of personal memoirs [which has yet to be given an official title]. Of course I want to know what he’s been up to over the years . . . but then again, do I really want to know what he’s been up to? *sniffs* knowwhati’msayin’, B?

I’m 100% sure his joint will be more interesting than Carmen Bryans . . . which was a real snoooooze (If you take the celebrity factor out of the equation). I want my $$$ back! I am also curious to know what will be exposed about other members of the WuTang Clan. I guess we’ll have to wait til February 2007 to get the scoop. Unless somone out there cops me a bootleg copy . . .

Movie Musings . . .
I have the opportunity to see an advance preview of DREAMGIRLS at no charge. But this time around I think I will wait until Christmas Day. I’m really into the hype of it. I also want to see all of the previews for upcoming films (advance previews tend to skip over all of that). Special previews can be fun, but sometimes the preview attendees can be a little too disruptive for me. Free shit tends to bring out the “ghetto-ness” in folks. Know what I mean? I don’t want nooooobody interfering with my Dreamgirls experience, cuz they don’t know how to behave in public. Etiquette; I just can’t express how important it is !

And since I’m on the topic - Last week I attended an advanced showing for “The Pursuit of Happyness”. My thoughts: Long . . . and slow moving. I think Will Smith is an excellent actor and his son, Jaden Smith is following in his footsteps. The film in general sent a positive message and it had its funny moments. But I just wish they would’ve picked up the pace. Honestly, I am glad I was able to see this movie at no charge. This is a great film to see on video and not block buster material. Of course this is strictly MY opinion. It has already been nominated for two Golden Globe awards.

Don’t be jealous.
