With all the hoopla over Michael Jackson going to the big house, the journalists seem to have missed one huge question: What does this mean for Captain Eo 2? I saw the first one when I went to Disney World with my parents as a wee CWMP. When you're 7 years old, a movie starring Michael Jackson is pretty cool. Then you add in the fact that he's a space pirate, and it gets better. And wait, they show it in 3D? BESTILL MY BEATING HEART! Now that I'm old enough to appreciate more of the subtlety involved in the space piratry, I think I'd like it even more. However, it doesn't look like I'll get a chance to test that hypothesis if Disney doesn't show some cajones and pony up for Eo 2.
In non Captain Eo related news, I would like to announce that I've written a commercial for rectal thermometers that ought to draw in the young people. Here it is, for your perusal.
The scene opens with two teenagers at a skateboard park.
Guy 1: Hey dude, that was a bodacious 720 Sweet Potato you just pulled.
Guy 2: Thanks, homeskillet. *cough cough*
Guy 1: That cough doesn't good, Dudezilla. I better take your temperature.
Guy 1 pulls a thermometer out of his skateboard dude bag.
Guy 2: Eww, I'm not putting that thing in my mouth!
Guy 1: It doesn't go in your mouth, you weinerbiscuit. It goes in your butt.
Guy 2: What? A rectal thermometer? I don't think so.
Guy 1: This ain't your momma's rectal thermometer. It's called an Extreme Thermometer, and it's the cool new way to check your temperature. Look, it has Pokemon on it, and it plays a Snoop Dogg whenever you insert it.
Guy 2: Dudaclicious! Lube that thing up and stick it in!
They high-five and then ready the apparatus
Yeah, I'm not sure what to make of that, but if you fat cats at the rectal thermometer companies are going to use it, I expect a little bit of the ka-chingo.
