Manolo says, ayyyyyy! The charming and funny Never teh Bride who runs the Manolo’s humble Bride Blog, she is running the small contest in which she is asking for the crazy stories about the weddings, and to the craziest/funniest/oddest stories she will be giving away the grab bag of the items from the soon-to-be-released new DVD of the Pride and Prejudice movie.

Such as this, the track of the sound.

Go tell the Never teh Bride your tale of wedding horror!

Manolo says, it is the Tuesday, time to see what the Manolo is…

Reading…

Listenting to…

The Manolo he wanted to like the Stage Beauty much more than he ultimately did. The period detail it was amusing and properly bawdy, and yet there was something essentially and emotionally incorrect in the relationship between the Kynaston and the Maria, and do not get the Manolo started on the acting of the Clare Danes in this movie.

Happily, the Manolo very much enjoyed the Rupert Everett’s delightful Charles II and the Nell Gwynn she was wonderful. In the fact, there is the great and amusing movie yet to be made about the Charles and the Nell. Perhaps the Manolo shall write it.

Manolo says, who would not be thrilled to find this under the tree?

Manolo says, previously the past week or so, the Manolo he has been suggesting the holiday gift book ideas for his many internet friends. But what to get the person who is not much of the reader? Or for the person who is addicted to the films?

Well, the Manolo he is here to help, by suggesting the few of the Manolo’s favorite DVDs, ones suitable for the giving as the gifts.

The Funniest Television Show Ever

Father Ted - The Holy Trilogy

The first three or the four episodes of the Father Ted they were probably the funniest thing the Manolo has ever seen. Three reprobate priests exiled onto the desolate Irish island. It does not sound promising, but it is, in the fact, absolutely brilliant, anarchic and brilliant, and guaranteed to make you laugh until you cannot breathe.

How the Manolo Thinks the Wild West Really Was

Deadwood the Complete First Season

It is perhaps not well known that the Manolo he is the connoisseur of the cowboy movies, from the worst to the best. And this series, it is one of the best media purchases of the Manolo during this past year.

Simply put, the Deadwood it is the masterwork of sorts. Alternately horrific and hilarious, it has the ring of historical and artistic truth to it. And the Manolo he cannot tell you how much he has enjoyed watching it.

Manolo’s Favorite Fashion Movie

There is no competition for the title of the Manolo’s Favorite Fashion Movie. Nothing can touch the Zoolander, one of the few recent movies with the Ben Stiller in which the Manolo does not find the Ben Stiller actively annoying. It is funny from the start (with the cameo in which the Evil One unveils his true malevolence) to the end. Funny, and yet at its core so true.

Manolo shouts, Daniel Day Lewis!

It is no secret that the Manolo is the huge big fan of the Daniel Day Lewis, even when his hair it is looking like that of the mental patient.

Indeed, how can the Manolo not be the big huge fan of the Daniel Day Lewis? For like the Manolo and the Vitaly Belchenko, the Daniel Day Lewis loves the shoes.

As the many internet friends of the Manolo know, the Manolo has the cinematic aspirations, and that he is writing the play for the screen. It is, of the course, his fondest hope that the Day Lewis would agree to be the star of this potential movie.

The movie it is about the shoe designer, played by the Daniel Day Lewis (him, the Hasselhoff, or the Russell Crowe), who designs the most amazing and powerful super fantastic shoes, which are then stolen by the nefarious mastermind, the Blagerfeld, who uses them in the attempt to take over the world. (His previous plot, involving the Crocs, it had naturally failed.)

The shoe designer and his sidekick, the souped-up, super fantastic, high-tech, talking black Trans Am, they must then race against the clock to retrieve the shoes and defeat the villian before his plans they come to fruition.

The Manolo envisions the sort of sophisticated action/buddy/fashion picture, with many stunts and good clothes.

Manolo says, last night the most super fantastic stars of the Hollywood appeared in public for the handing out of the Oscars.

In the general the Manolo he was pleased to see that the stars they dressed in a glamourous fashion befitting their station (Unlike, say, at the Awards of the Spirit of the Independents, whose participants they were dressed so barista bohemian casual that the Manolo found himself wanting to ask many of them to fetch him the low fat/skim mocha double cappuccino, and make it quick, the Manolo he is the busy man.)

Overall, however, last night there were alomst none of the grotesqueries of the fashion that have in the past caused the Manolo to do the spit take.

Still there were the few of the stars whose “get-ups” require the closer scruitny.

The Melanie Griffith

Manolo says, yes, the dress it was awful, but the Manolo he does not want to make fun of the poor Melanie, as not only is she wearing the cast on the leg, but it is plain to the Manolo that the Melanie she is peddling as fast as she can to hang onto that super fantastic man of hers.

The Renee Zellweger

Manolo says, Behold! The Little Goth Mermaid.

The Robin Williams

Manolo says, the sad desperate cry for the attention.

The ???

Manolo asks, who is the dull woman and why does she appear to believe that she is the shizznit?

The Depp

Manolo says, the Manolo he has the rule, if you are the Johnny Depp, or the Marlon Brando, or the Russell Crowe, or the Daniel Day Lewis, you are the genius and are entitled to wear whatever you want, however ridiculous, without the petty carping of the Manolo.

Of the course, this mention of the actors of the genius, it brings up the conspicuous failure of the Academy to recognize the genius of the David Hasselhoff.

At the least the Hasselhoff he should have been nominated in the catagory of the award for the best supporting actor, for his masterful return to the big screen in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. This injustice, it has left the Manolo angry and confused, and convinced him that the justice it may never be served.

Look, even the Squidward and the Katie Couric were upset by this snubbing of the Hasselhoff!

Manolo says, it is no secret that the Manolo, before the Manolo he bacame the super fantastic shoe blogger, he was the poor boy, so poor that the Manolo he was forced to fashion his own super fantastic shoes out of the vegtable rinds and milk cartons.

For the Manolo of those days gone, the only of the joys they were to be found in the making of the shoes and in the dreaming of the stars of the Hollywood, especially the David Hasselhoff of the Knight Rider.

At night, after the hard day of the poverty, the Manolo he would lay in the dark of his cold, dirty apartment, listening to the rats scurrying, and dreaming that the Manolo he would be rescued by the eccentric billionaire industrialist, who would give the Manolo his own super fantastic KITT Trans Am, one that could use the many features to help the Manolo in the making of the super fantastic shoes.

Together, the Manolo and his car, they would defeat the forces of the evil (who in those days were wearing of the Birkenstocks.)

Today, the Manolo he will never forgotten those dark days of the past when the twin demons of the poverty and the hunger they stalked the Manolo on their pale horses.

This it is why the Manolo he will always love the Hasselhoff, and why he will always love the movies and the television because they–and the shoes–they were the only things that kept the Manolo from falling into the despair.

Likewise, the Manolo he will always love the Daniel Day Lewis, even when he insists on dressing like the eccentric artiste, in the bizarre formal wear of his own misguided device.

The Manolo he will always love the Daniel Day Lewis because as the actor, he, like the Hasselhoff, is the genius. Ever better, unlike any of the other stars of the Hollywood, the Day Lewis, he truly and deeply loves the shoes.

By the way, has the Manolo mentioned that he is working on the screenplay for the Daniel Day Lewis?

The story it is about a super fantastic shoe designer who, together with his super fantastic car, a black Trans Am, designs the most super fantastic shoes the world has ever seen. The shoes, they are stolen by an evil super villian, Blagerfeld, who trys to use the super fantastic shoes to take over the world. The shoe designer, he and his car, they must get the shoes back before it is too late.

It is, of the course, an action picture of the buddies.

In the opinion of the Manolo, this movie is should be directed by the Baz, and star the Daniel Day Lewis. Him or the Russell Crowe.
