Things that kill you and things that kill me

A dude died after watching Avatar. A 42-year-old Taiwanese man who, admittedly was unhealthy, died from complications of a stroke brought about by "excitement from watching the movie." James Cameron killed a man. My good friend Darren liked the term undouche that I rolled out yesterday, so allow me to continue my fledgling meme. It is much harder for Jimmy C to undouche now that there is blood on his hands. And before you say that you can't really blame him for this, consider that Jimmy C wanted a "game-changer" and to make things more real than ever before. Congrats, Captain D-Bag, you've murdered.

In totally non-related news, Slashfilm noticed a release by Hawaii (that's the state, not a new director you've never heard of named after an island chain) revealed that Alexander Payne's new movie, The Descendents, will feature George Clooney as rumored. He will presumably play the lead character who travels to Hawaii after he finds out his wife was having an affair. She's now in a coma, so he takes his two daughters to go find the douche who was doinking their mom...in Hawaii. I can see this plot description working for all parties involved. Sometimes you read a press release (like, say, Marc Webb getting a 3-picture deal) and you go "huhbuhwha?" Sometimes they make perfect sense. Also, the headline referred to things that kill me. The answer: Doing a story about Hawaii while watching freezing drizzle out the window.
