The Bob Gentry Journal

Well… My meeting that was supposed to happen today at 1pm got bumped up till tomorrow and that’s fine…I figure I’ve waited this long, I certainly can make it through one more day.

Today, I’ll be getting my hair chopped at 3pm….Rufus and I are supposed to play tennis again at some point today(I think)….And then later tonight It’s the movie Elektra!

Critics hated this but I hate critics. The girl at Tower Video said “Well, this is better than Dare Devil“…Um… I happened to LOVE Dare Devil! It must be a “guy thing”….Dare Devil just got sliced apart because Ben Affleck was in it and critics just rip on ANYTHING he does. The movie Paycheck!…Come on…That was a great flick!! There was nothing wrong with his acting and I thought it was a fun action adventure futuristic story. I don’t mean to be so defensive of Ben but I just think he’s getting the short end of the stick for making a ton of money….And for making GIGLI

It seems like there’s a point or a line that someone sometimes crosses to where they get so famous they go from everyone loving them to everyone hating them because they think everyone loves them. A good example of that is the band Nirvana.

When Nirvana’s song “Smells like Teen Spirit” came on the scene EVERYONE loved it…And then…I actually remember a time …Being at a party in Ann Arbor, Michigan and someone played a Nirvana song and people were actually GROANING and screaming at the DJ to turn it off. About a month after that, Cobain killed himself and those same people now think of him as a music god. Go figure.

I don’t mean to compare Nirvana to Ben Affleck but these are just observations I’ve made is all There’s no real point …The main thing was…I’m looking forward to Elektra tonight!
