And this is our new site that we are promoting so when you have a chance go to the front page and vote your favorite girls up the list of phone sex central. You will find the same fantastic ladies there that you find on all of our sites. See you there!
Now for our picks last week “Skid Row” and “The Visitor” both were really good, mostly about people down on there luck, but both are worthy of watching. Before I get to the business of the review our picks for next week are “The Station Agent” (my pet billy’s pick) and “Fred Claus” have to get into the spirit of the holidays don’t we? Just to let you all know I will be available for all you lonely strokers and sassy sissies on Thanksgiving Day, just my little way of giving back. So I hope that more of you will start to join us for our movie watcher club. We are going to get into Jane Austen’s books, all of you sissy girly girls will just love those love stories. So I reveal my pick every Wednesday for the next weeks review so it gives everyone plenty of time to grab them up and watch them. If you don’t want to feel left out you better make it quick and join us.
“Skid Row”
Well “Skid Row” was gritty and truth bearing, Pras Michel (of hip-hop group the Fugees) went to skid row in L.A. and stayed and lived there for 9 days. His eyes were openend wide to the destruction of the human soul, and the desperate measures someone can take not to be found. So many lost humans, he realizes that some are there due to circumstances others there own self induldgence of drugs and crime. They all seem to seek help. This is a definate watch and a 7 leather paddle movie for its harshness.
“The Visitor”
This was a charming little story of an awakening musician, Walter (Richard Jenkins) a distant widower that really never fit anywhere not even when his wife was living. Walter discovers an immigrant couple, Tarek (Haaz Sleiman) worth watching for his handsome face and Zainab (Danai Gurira), squatting in his Manhattan flat and becomes wrapped up in their lives when Tarek is thrown into a detention center. Parts of this story are so real to life, people that have lived in this country for years can be thrown away like yesterdays trash. All over simple paperwork, and you would think by now we would know the good guys from the bad. A wonderful Hiam Abbass co-stars as Tarek’s mother, who forges an unlikely connection with Walter. Director Thomas McCarthy’s follow-up to his indie hit The Station Agent premiered at Sundance in 2008. I give this one 8 sissy sticks for the crying factor at the end. Remember the “Station Agent” is one of our picks for next week.
Have a Great Thanksgiving!!

Empress Sophia
I want to thank you Ms Sophia for the wonderful movie date we had while watching “the Visitor”… It so made me feel like we are dating…mmmm… This movie had a few interesting plot lines to follow, some were uplifting, while some were painful. It was great to see the healing take place in Walter’s life to where he could risk loving again after the death of his wife. He basically had let himself die…by not truly living…for years of settling for a routine life. He becomes awakened by experiencing the passions of the young couple and life becomes both musical and meaningful again. As for the young couple, they become tragic casualties of the times…where freedom has been sacrificed basically due to the threat of terrorism. They are caught in a system that does not or can not account for the true gifts that they bring to the world. It is a system that can only judge by the correct papers and not the true measure of the human heart. So the movie is both heartbreaking and uplifting at the same time…which is a bit frustrating for those that need the complete happy ending…but is probably an accurate reflection of life. I give this movie 5 strap-ons for the way that the immigrants get screwed…but a gallon of lube for the good feeling Walter discovers within himself. I’ll be back when i get to “skid row”… Thanks for the great girlfriend date…my princess, goddess, and my everything…

Okay…I just finished “skid row”…and Empress Sophia I believe you have accurately described this as a portrayal of the destruction of the human soul and for some the desparation to not be found…sort of the desire for “aloneness” that so many who get lost in the world of drugs experience. I found myself upset at this destruction and the cycle of defeat that many living on “skid row” and no doubt countless other places experience. Even though drug addiction begins with individual choice…. I just felt like they have been robbed of their true life, and we all have lost because of what we will never know or experience from who they were really meant to be or do in this world. I have no rating for the movie…cuz I am still pissed off!!…lol. But as always a great pick for its hard hitting intensity!
