Robsessed

21 December 2009

So, I was at Blockbuster hunting down Star Trek when my eye happened to catch on the hot pink DVD cover for Robsessed. As you might guess from the title, it’s an “exclusive, access-all-areas pass” to the life of Robert Pattinson. Or R-Pattz, as he’s apparently called. The “documentary” claims to include the sizzling secrets of Robert’s first kiss, gossip on his co-stars, and tales of how his sisters used to dress him up like a girl and call him Claudia.

Now, I’m firmly on Team Jacob, but even if this were “Taysessed” or whatever the equivalent documentary for Taylor Lautner would be called, I somehow think I’d still be asking myself, “Uh … WHY???” People seriously care about this stuff? Now, I’ve had my fair share of embarrassing obsessions (I own New Kids on the Block bed sheets), but I really can’t imagine “R-Pattz’s” life being THAT interesting.

What’s extra amusing to me now is I saw this thing is bombing in reviews on Amazon. The fans are annoyed that this company is making money off Rob’s fame on an unauthorized biography. That was actually a pleasant surprise. Glad to see there are some intelligent fans out there.

On the other hand, Star Trek was awesome. Other than vague second hand knowledge I’ve picked up along the years from my Star-Trek-loving father, I knew very little heading into the movie and really enjoyed it. The funniest part was how Ben and I kept saying about James Kirk, “We know that guy from somewhere. WHAT is he in?”

Princess Diaries Two. Yeah, that prompted a groan from my husband.

Hope everyone has a happy Monday!

Okay, I didn’t even remember the actor’s name so . . . I’m obviously not “Robsessed” lol.

And as someone who has seen pretty much all the newer Star Trek series—thanks, honey—I’m proud of you for watching the movie;-) I haven’t yet, actually.

Hey, in third grade, I was VERY cool. Not as cool as my friend, Leah, who also had the comforter set, but still :)
