Strange Conversations: Part One Hundred and Eleven
Posted 27 March 2009 in Strange Conversations by Catriona
ME: Friend was complaining (Note: playfully complaining, I hope) that I hadn’t updated the blog today.
NICK: Fair enough.
ME: I updated four times yesterday!
NICK: Well, you have an audience now. That makes a difference.
ME: Oh, god. You mean I have to update more often?
NICK: Treena . . .
ME: ‘Cause it’s a personal blog, and I thought . . .
NICK: Treena, put the bunny down.
(Pause)
ME: Pardon?
NICK: Had a bit of a Con Air moment there.
ME: I wouldn’t hurt a bunny.
NICK: No.
ME: Do you think of me as John Malkovich?
NICK: Yes.

I haven’t seen Con Air so that’s lost on me….

It’s well worth it. Works as both an action movie and an especially clever satire on an action movie.

Um, I don’t know about that. I didn’t think it was an exceptionally clever and satirical action movie: I thought it was a frequently laughably stupid action movie, which isn’t quite the same thing.

hmm…well now I’m torn as to whether to bother…is that the one with John Cusack…if so that might tip the scales in it’s favour
perhaps you could be John Malkovich in Being John Malkovich instead?

You’d have to talk to Nick about whether swapping films is an option—I don’t particularly want to be John Malkovich! What is he doing these days, anyway?
It does have John Cusack in it, but then it also has Nicolas Cage in it, so the two sort of cancel out.

yes that’s true re John Cusack v Nicolas cage
I just saw John Malkovich in Burn After Reading. He was playing himself yet again.
