Saturdays Sarcastic Soapbox

First things first.

I saw The Runaways yesterday.

And

I loved it.

Kristen Stewart was born to play Joan Jett.

She didn't just play a role...

She fucking became Joan.

The determination.

The anger.

Knowing what she wants to do...

and doing whatever it takes

To fucking get there.

Kristen does anger well.

It was great to see her outside of the Twilight box

away from meek Bella...

And fucking swear and wear tons of eyeliner

and play a fucking guitar.

Dakota was wonderful in this movie, too...

and the story was kinda centered around Cherie Currie

Dakota nailed it.

But I wanted to watch Kristen.

I wanted to know more about Joan.

And like someone said to me

"You miss Kristen when she's not onscreen"

They were right.

Is the movie perfect?

Of course not.

But it tells an interesting story.

And while I have always been aware of Joan Jett

And liked her music...

Now I want her music.

The best line in the whole movie?

Towards the end

Cherie is burnt out

She wants to quit...

She tells Joan that she wants her life back

And as Joan watches Cherie leave

She says...

"This IS my life"

Excellent.

Walking in the rain.

I know.

Anyway.

Lots of bullshit all over the place.

I'm not sure any of it really deserves a mention.

But a few things come to mind...

1. Let's talk about Manips.

Picture Manipulations.

I get it.

Some are kinda funny...

Some are kinda cute...

Some are downright creepy and gross.

Honestly?

Not a fan.

But I get the joke.

What I don't get is people manipulating

people into photos that they aren't in...

and then claiming it's a legit picture.

"Is that Kristen?"

Seriously...

That is all kinds of fucked up.

2. Power trips.

First off... 

Every time there is some perceived slight to Kristen

"Nonstens" get the blame.

Really?

Surely you jest.

Like a group of people have that much influence?

Really?

It's no better than the Haters blaming

everything on Kristen.

Sorry.

Lame.

3. What never ceases to amaze me

is that people actually believe that

Robert or Kristen live their life

according to shipper/hater bullshit.

That they will alter where they go...

what they wear...

to appease some lunatic fan-base.

Now, both Rob and Kristen have stated

that they love their fans.

They appreciate all they have done for them.

But you don't really believe they are up nights

reading silly blogs and tweets about themselves...

and then deciding to wear white henleys

to fuck with the 'shippers'?

Like they are going to let the lunatic fringe

dictate what they do.

Come on.

You have to know that they don't fucking care

what anyone else thinks of how they live their lives.

They are too busy living it.

4. And finally.

Still so much talk about where Kristen is.

How 'mysterious'.

If she doesn't show up on set with Robert...

She's not there.

Why... Oh Why

Would she show up on the movie set???

Does that make ANY sense at all?

And no, there haven't been any pictures

(except lame fake ones)

Do you think it might be easier to get around in Hungary

if you stay away from a movie set 

full of cameras and paparazzi?

Just a thought.

Where is Kristen Stewart?

;)

Bye for now.

*Pssst... stop reading my blog.

It's not about you.*
