Saw “Walk The Line”, the Johnny Cash movie. Now, I know nothing about Johnny Cash. But it was good. I liked it.
One of the first scenes, when he was a kid, he was listening to the radio. Now, this was in the thirties or forties or whatever. And I think “WAIT! I KNOW THAT SONG!”. Because Mike Nesmith sang it. Ah yes, I won’t forget you my little Monkees. It was especially cool because that’s the song that he sings about me. Well, not about me. He mentions my name. So not me. But someone with my name.
Anyway, then his brother dies. Saw that coming miles away.
What’s with all these people and their brothers dying?
I was thinking, really, lots of musicians had tragic or screwed up childhoods. Me, I think my life is about as normal as you can get. After seeing the Truman Show I’ve been constantly worried my life is on television… but who’d want to watch? No one, that’s who. I’ve always been paranoid about things like that, people watching me, but mostly, believe it or not, I’m afraid people can read my mind. Not that I think of anything interesting. But it’s still strange.
Anyway, I was talking about the movie.
Now that Johnny Cash I thought was quite an ass at times. I mean, making her come out on stage and proposing to her and doing all this stuff in front of people. She can’t say no because then she’ll be the bad guy. I mean, I couldn’t deal with someone making me do all that kinda stuff. Rude.
More thinking about myself, which is what I do. If I’m ever famous, I’m going to die. Not get old and die. I don’t hope I die before I get old, but if I’m famous, I probably will. I don’t like letting people down, I like people to be happy. I would get myself killed by trying to make other people happy. Seriously. Sad but true. But I still want to be famous. Even though death is my worst fear.
Back to the movie. There was the one part where he was particularly mad and smashed his guitar and was trashing his room. And I just wanted to laugh so much. But it’s a serious movie. So I couldn’t. Ah, Pete.
Speaking of Pete. I read Nicholas Cage is going to play him in that Keith Moon movie.
Now really, who can play Pete? Pete is unplayable. I mean.
But Keith is too!
I mean, they’re just such characters.
Mike Myers, 10 years older than Keith when he died.
I don’t think he looks like him at all.
Reading about this guy, Jason Schwartzman.
Looked him up on Google, he looks pretty Keith like.
I’d much prefer him to Myers. Because I would think I was watching Austin Powers. And I grew out of Austin Powers after I was 8.
And this proves I’d have trouble seeing Myers as Moon.
Joaquin Phoenix, I’ve heard of him, but don’t think I’ve ever actually seen him in anything. And I believed he was Johnny Cash. Reese Witherspoon on the other hand, at times I would look at her and think “Reese”, even though I should’ve thought “June”. Not that she was a bad actress. I just know who she is. Not personally, but you know what I mean.
Jerry Lee Lewis. Hah. I thought he was pretty funny looking. I’m just used to what’s his face as Jerry Lee Lewis… ah… Dennis Quaid, right. But even him, I don’t think he looks like the real Jerry. Because I know what he looks like. I did watch 33 1/3, after all.
But I did laugh when he was bowing. Hah. I suppose he did a good Jerry. I knew who he was before he started singing “I’m Jerry Lee Lewis!”
Whoa. I just realized. If I was famous, I’ve decided I’d drop my last name and use my middle name. Because it sounds so right. But that’s only because it’s like Jerry Lee. Shoot. That won’t work. Then I’d have to change my last name to like… Bowie. Hahahaha. Get it? Davy Jones, David Bowie, you know… no? Right.
I hope Jada isn’t jealous of my super cool name now. Ha ha.
Hmm… well. I’ve completely gone onto another train of thought. What movie? Ha ha.
Now then. I have things to do, don’t I?
