First an update on the 3rd Season DVD “I didn’t get no stinkin’ movie ticket!” controversy. Basically….your chance of getting a ticket is a crap shoot. LOL. Initially I (MaryAnne) thought that “specially marked packages” would have the movie ticket. I had noticed at my local Borders that the DVD had a sticker on it about the movie tickets, where as the copies at my local Target did not. I bought the DVD at Target because it’s about 10 bucks cheaper. However, the sticker theory got blown to heck when a friend of mine, who purchased her copy at Best Buy, had no ticket and hers had the sticker on it.
So basically, as I said, it’s a crap shoot. Another fan wrote in explaining that what probably happened was only a certain number of the DVDs got the ticket (let’s say, the first 5000 DVD’s, or however many movie goers WB was willing to subsidize. LOL) Those 5000 or so DVDs are then shipped all over the country and…well, good luck.
In all fairness, WB should have made this clear with their advertising, instead of just saying “Get a free movie ticket with the 3rd Season DVD purchase!” For crying out loud, we’re not THAT stupid y’know!
Anyway, speaking of the movie, we got a tidbit from our Musical Notes and Nonesense department….
ETOnline reports on the upcoming music video featuring Jessica Simpson and Willie Nelson doing a remake of Nancy Sinatra’s classic song “These Boots Are Made For Walking.” Also of note the soundtrack album appears slated for release on July 19th, according to this article.(HNet Editorial from MaryAnne: I’m assuming that Simpson’s “okay!” response on finding out the song was originally done by Sinatra was Jessicaspeak for “WhothehellisNancySinatra?” I take comfort tho’ that one day, forty years from now there’ll be another blonde bombshell singer who will do a cover of a Jessica Simpson song and ask “WhothehellisJessicaSimpson?” And the wheel in the sky keeps on turning…LOL )
