i like wearing Vans with no socks.

Even someone that lives in a cave in south east Asia would know that the second 'Twilight' movie came out. It's a trip how hyped this movie was. It's an effing vampire love story. Not that i dont like vampires, but this is a stupid romance movie (in my opinion). When one of the characters has to be half naked through out the entire movie then there really isnt any substance involved. Anyways, the point i'm tryna make is, that it's really sad that something like this is taken so seriously and given so much importance by a lot of folks in our society. And it's scary how the cast of this movie are given an idolic status by so many. I'm not saying that you shouldn't have any enthusiasm towards movies, nor am i saying that you shouldnt admire the work of an actor/actress. But it shouldn't be overdone like it is. Walk into any book store and you'll find a ton of books about the actors in 'Twilight'. It's a trip how much media attention they're given, magazines, t.v. shows, even the news has reports on them. Dunno if this is true or not, but i heard the people camped out in Westwood a week before the premiere just to try and meet the cast and that people are getting 'Twilight' themed tattoo's. They're just actors in a make belief story and they're given so much importance and precedence in our society. It's pathetic, sad, and scary. People that really make a difference and issues that are of actual importance are barely given any precedence or in some cases none at all, but if Robert Pattinson ate at McDonalds the whole world has to know. I've never understood why award shows like the Oscar's are televised but the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony isn't. And i've never been able to wrap my head around shows like TMZ, Access Hollywood, ET, and Extra. It's completely unnecessary to have this many celebrity themed shows and for them to have as much air time as they do. There is nothing of substance on these shows, yet they report about Hollywood and celebrities with so much urgency and precedence, it's like something catastrophic was about to happen. I bet the same folks that camped out a week for the 'Twilight' premiere wouldn't even go to a political or social protest for an hour. People in our society are so reluctant to engage and immerse themselves in the issues and events that actually are of importance. They rather know what happened to Lindsay Lohan then know how the proposed health care bill will effect us. And it's this ignorance that has caused many of the problems our country faces now. It's this ignorance that has allowed the government and corporations to continually screw us over. I cant really remember the point i'm tryna make so i'm just gonna get to the music now. I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving and Eid.
