Movies of the Good Old Times
Mar. 4th, 2005 10:59 pmWell, today didn't turn out so bad after all ^_^
Nichole and Kristina did manage to make it to come over . . . some one came over to relieve Nichole of her babysitting duties or something. So we watched a LOT of old movies. We watched the songs from the Guys and Dolls production (I really need to get ahold of The Curious Savage, and Hello Dolly when it comes out-- and Jessica needs to watch it!-- though it is so much worse when you have to watch it on the small little screen), Hello Dolly (the DVD-- which we danced to, lol . . . and Mom went on about how she had this huge crush on the guy who played Ambrose in the movie until she found out he was flamboyantly gay . . . the 7-foot-tall one with the freaking legs of doom, lol . . . ), our Romeo and Juliet movie we made in 9th grade (God, we looked so LITTLE!!! It was so crazy, and so cute! Lol . . . ), Kristina, Drew, William, and my English project from tenth grade on Medieval Crime and Punishment (one of the many videos in which Kristina ends up in bed with someone . . . this time it was Drew . . . hopefully we'll get to do a movie this year and she'll get to do it again, lol . . . )-- I should have brought that movie into Creative Writing-- the Spoon River Anthology movie we made last year (with Kristina in bed with Laura, lol . . . ), and the really, really old 8th grade play I just dug up, I Don't Have a Clue.
The latter was freaking HILARIOUS!!!
Some observations of familiar faces while in the 7th or 8th grade:
1) Me: I was acting like an angsty teenager. I'm a lot skinnier, and just generally younger.
2) Chris Beuter: I had to hug him. He was stiff as a rock. He recited his lines very dully. He also ran into the curtain in the end. Yes, ran into-- with his head!
3) Andrew Rogers: He was even more of a teddy bear in 8th grade then he is now. His voice was softer and a little bit higher, and he sounded really sweet-- he was probably a little less horny, lol. He was so much like his character.
4) Ericka Schneider: She was so much like her character, too: She bossed around Andrew like crazy in that thing. She seemed pretty similar.
5) Stephanie Zonker: Pretty much the same. Yup.
6) Brock Butler: Possibly the funniest change in the thing. My mom got a kick out of the fact that I "grew up to marry my father," since that's who he played in the play-- but, as I pointed out, he was the one who grew up. He was freaking short back then, short and chubby, with a REALLY HIGH VOICE. There was this one part where he and Tiffany scream, and Tiffany screams at her voice level, which is rather low, and he lets out this high-pitched shriek that puts Fairy to shame, man, lol . . . Plus he was also wearing what looks like leiderhosen, from the camera's bad point of view. I am going to have to find him and bother him about this, lol . . .
7) Tiffany Lent: Pretty much the same. Her voice was a LITTLE bit higher, but that was about it. See Brock Butler, lol . . .
8) Jamie Gregory: She's gotten taller, but that's about it. She was pretty funny in her little scene where she was trying to murder someone in the dark . . .
9) Kylie Krouse: She hasn't changed much. She looked about 26 in 8th grade; my mom said she could have walked into a bar and been served, lol . . .
Ahh . . . that was funny . . . very funny and refreshing ^_^
