As I mentioned before in a post titled Ten Inch Hero, there’s this movie written by a friend of mine, Betsy. And what should appear on youtube but:
The Tampon Scene
(Warning! Jensen Ackles in a kilt! Duuuude!)
View it and weep. Meaning, laugh until you, you know, cry.
Happy December!

That shot of the mohawk above the grocery rack is total awesomeness. Like a shark prowling the aisles of the store.
I HAVE to see this movie, when will it be released?

I’m with you. I told Betsy we want to know moooore, and she said she’d come give us the 411.

Is that Jensen Ackles gorgeous or what? Beautiful actress cast in there too.
Like Pamie wrote in one of her posts about a dream movie and cast, “I want to f*#k that movie so hard!”

Not much 411, sad to say.
We’re trying to work out distribution…can you believe that? People love the movie, lots of people want to see it. We answer mail non-stop about it.
Most importantly, we have Jensen AND Sean Patrick Flanery AND John Doe. I mean, you have to watch it twice just to remember to pay attention to the plot.
But Pooks is made of awesome for promoting it.

“We’re trying to work out distribution…can you believe that?”
I’m shocked. I showed this to my two teenaged daughters and they laughed. Hard. THEY want to see it. That is the ultimate test, getting those kids in the seats, and man are they picky.

Okay one part of me wants to run from anything labeled “tampon scene” and the other wants to run towards anything labeled “Jensen Ackles kilt.”
Coal, Miss Pooks. Lots and lots o’ coal.

Kitty, your daughters are the target audience. However, we all are still teenagers who squee, aren’t we?
Betsy, something’s gotta break.
Max, blame Betsy.

Kitty, you’re doing better than I am. My 12 year old wants nothing to do with it, and she’s even an extra. (She did watch that part, at least).
Then again, traditionally her interest in my writing has been “when will you be done?”
My almost-16-year-old is all over it, though.
Max, you always said to add more conflict, right?

Betsy, my girls are 14 and 17.
The hook was the kilt and the blue mohawk. I’ve taken them to concerts in England where guys walk around dressed like that, so they weren’t laughing about that part, they were lurving it. They laughed at his situation and how he won it.
Hey, will there be a screening of TIH in Dallas?

Well, yeah, I did say that. Clearly the allure of Ackles in a kilt won out too because I watched the clip. Fun clip Betsy.
