The Mummy

Lesson learned: Never volunteer to beta test a Microsoft product…

And one final comment: It’s not that I lack imagination in predicting the way future humans would dress. Archeologist fashion hardly changed in the last two hundred years. I see no reason it would change in the next three thousand.

The Evolution of Wonder Woman

Roughly seventy years after she was conceived, DC comics has decided that Wonder Woman will undergo a complete makeover. Forget the sexy little red white and blue singlet she was wearing – The amazon princess is now covering herself with a thick leather Jacket and a matching pair of shiny pants. Wonder Woman is definitely adapting a more modest, some may say conservative, look. We can only guess where this is going. The cartoon above is my guess.

P.S. I just realized the cartoon receives a new meaning if you take into account that the new Wonder Woman outfit is now stripped of anything symbolizing America, as this Fox News article claims 🙂 Diana shall now fight the American infidels, unless her husband orders her otherwise…

Sex and the City 2

I saw the new Sex and the City movie the other night. Carrie, Samantha, Miranda, and Charlotte continue their wild adventures, only now they’re older, much older.
I saw the show when it was broadcasted originally, back in the late 1990s / early 2000s. Then the girls were in their thirties and tried to act like they’re twenty, and it was fun, sexy, even sassy. Now they’re in their late forties, and guess what – they’re still trying to act like they’re twenty. It’s no longer sassy, it’s just pathetic. Some are old enough to be grandmothers. If the girls don’t watch themselves, they’ll end up dancing in a mini-skirt when they’re seventy like Liza Minnelli in that movie… Oh, right – same movie.
