I need to talk about Jon Hamm for a minute. The bad news? He’s starring in a new movie Sucker Punch which is also featuring Vanessa Hudgens. I think I talked about this movie before; it’s a fantasy flick and ‘Nessa plays a hooker. The good news? Because it’s a movie about hookers, there’s a good possibility that Hamm could appear naked. The movie most likely be amazing just because of his ass participation.
I may have mentioned that I wished that I watched Mad Men from the start because it always looks like such a good show. I get weird about series television — if I haven’t watched it from episode one on its original air date, I have a very difficult time bonding mid-season. Issues … I know. But in an effort to conquer my crazies, I took the plunge and am currently watching the series in the most schizophrenic manner possible. I’ve seen half of the first season (the final two discs just arrived from Netflix!), every night I watch one or two episodes On Demand from Season 2, and Sunday night I watched the Season 3 premiere. And I love it. What a totally amazing riveting show! So much of TV sucks so when you find something that has such subtle and unspoken elements, you want to hold onto that. It’s like finding a front row parking spot at the mall. On December 24th. Magic.
And Jon Hamm? Why was I ever wasting my time with Bradley Cooper? As an aside, after watching BC in action in Yes Man, I’ve determined that he’s much hotter in print than on film. So. Over. Him. Okay, back to my new fiance, Jon. This dude plays his character Don Draper with such amazing (I just realized that I used the word “amazing” about five million times in this piece) layered dimensions. From minute to minute I can’t decide if I admire, hate or pity him. Just. Amazing. Incredible.
So, yeah … I’m bummed that any cast member from High School Musical is going to share screen time with my beau, but I will be watching. I’ll be watching everything that Jon Hamm does. Forever. And ever.
