domino

We watched the movie Domino last week. It was a very long, acid-infused action movie with shades of John Woo. It's about a rich girl turned bounty hunter and her adventures. I liked it up until the "Save the baby!" plot, then I got annoyed by it, and then it sort of redeemed itself with the John Woo blow-out at the end.

One of my favorite scenes is when one of the characters gets on Jerry Springer as the "Youngest Mixed Race Grandmother" and she declares, "As a Blacktino woman..." She then brings out a flow chart with different terms for mixed race people, including "Chinegro" and "Japanic". It cracked me up.

Mark and I decided that we will refer to our kids as "Chirabians".

Sadly, I will go watch it, in spite of the fact that there is no Vin Diesel, because Justin Lin (Better Luck Tomorrow) is directing it.

Maybe not in theaters, though. I bet one of my sisters has a copy already.
