Kevin’s Live-Tweet of ‘May’
On November 1, Kevin wrapped his Halloween live-tweeting by watching Lucky McKee’s thriller, May. Here’s a log, complete with time-code for your home-viewing pleasure.
A big thanks to @AronDej for recommending the film. (And a big thanks for @scottEweinberg’s forgiveness for my live-tweet.)
MAY 01:15 – yeah, let’s put a pirate eye patch on the girl with the lazy eye. That’s subtle.
MAY 02:10 – “If you can’t find a friend, make one.” That’s not always a good thing. Depends what you’re making it from.
MAY 02:55 – That is the creepiest f-ing doll I’ve ever seen. Clear way to screw up your kid is to give her one of those.
MAY 05:20 – “I have a date.” Do both parties in the date know this?
MAY 06:55 – Holy crap! It’s the fat guy from BORAT working in the vet’s office.
MAY 07:40 – What’s weirder… that May told Anna Faris that she has a beautiful neck… or that AFaris was flatteredy by this.
MAY 09:40 – Hands down, Angela Bettis is a fantastic actor. She really should get more work.
MAY 10:20 – “When I dropped my dog off, she had 4 legs; now she has three.” Must be one of those discount vets.
MAY 13:50 – Ah, she’s a cutter. And yet it still turns Polly on.’
MAY 14:45 – In general, lesbian sex is relatively low risk for diseases like AIDS,unless you cut each other with the same unwashed scarpal
MAY 16:30 – When someone recognizes that you make your own clothes, it’s either they’re impressed or you look like a hobo.
MAY 17:40 – The way that guy just leered at her laundry-day panties instantly made him way creepier than she ever was.
MAY 20:40 – Never trust anyone who cuts their food with a pocket knife without washing it off first. That’s a rule I live by.
MAY 22:50 – Never go to a vet clinic that doesn’t check what sutures it has before it starts operating on your pet. Another rule I live by
MAY 24:45 – Usually vet clinics aren’t described as “finger-licking good.” But apparently Polly is a trend setter.
MAY 27:00 – “I like weird a lot.” Yup, you can say that when you take your dates to a beat-up pick-up truck and eat chips & salsa.
MAY 30:00 – Wow. She really does blame that doll for the bad kissing lessons, doesn’t she?
MAY 33:15 – I’m trying to figure out which girl is weirder in this movie… May or Polly. They are both off a tad, doncha think/
MAY 34:05 – The most awesome answering machine message ever!
MAY 37:00 – Making macaroni and cheese… does that count as the dinner for “dinner and a movie”? Same goes for Gatorade in wine glasses
MAY 38:25 – If your baby does that hanky panky, is it really necessary to say it that many times?
MAY 44:00 – The fat guy from BORAT is the worst vet ever.
MAY 46:20 -Convinced the confusion May is feeling is less about sexual orientation and more about who’s okay with a little blood during sex.
MAY 49:30 – Somehow this day care center is weirder than the freaky vet’s office.
MAY 51:20 – Here’s to hoping she doesn’t wash the cat in the laundry basket.
MAY 55:20 – Good arm, May.
MAY 1:00:00 – Making out in an elevator is sexy if you’ve just met each other & it’s night. Not when you live together & come home for lunch
MAY 1:03:35 – “Want to go get some jujibes with me?” Is that a pick-up line now?
MAY 1:04:55 – ‘Do you have any ice cubes I can rub on my nipples?” I can’t say I have ever said that to anyone.
MAY 1:06:45 – “I need more parts.” A chill just literally went up my spine on that line.
MAY 1:09:50 – “My grandma said it’s the imperfections that make you special.” Tell that to Jennifer Gray’s nose and Steve Buscemi’s teeth
MAY 1:13:25 – Wow.
MAY 1:15:40 – Beware of “weird” chicks walking around with a giant Igloo cooler.
MAY 1:17:40 – They’re really pushing the Halloween vodka in this movie.
MAY 1:18:20 – This movie is definitely finger-licking good.
MAY 1:20:10 – Hey, isn’t that the music used in CORALINE’s opening credits?
MAY 1:26:40 – Wow. You’ve gotta hand it to May. She is nothing if not committed.
MAY 1:28:35 – And ROLL CREDITS!
Final thoughts on MAY: Heartbreaking tale of lonliness with a fantastic performance by Angela Bettis. Check it out!
