On Saturday night, Chris and I were in Katoomba, at something of a loss of what to do. We wound up at the cinema, watching 17 Again, because it was what was on.
It was entertaining, though parts of it were more or less excruciating. The inevitable "Oh no, my daughter is falling in love with me" moment sort of rates on that scale.
Don't worry, Stevie, there's a song-and-dance number (well, no song, I guess); just for you.
I was bemused to realise, walking out of the film, that Matthew Perry was playing a character whose life could be described by the theme tune from Friends:
So no-one told you life was gonna be this way
Your job's a joke, you're broke; your love life's DOA
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month
Or even your year
But
I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cause you're there for me too
<snip>
No one could ever know me
No one could ever see me
Seems you're the only one who knows
What it's like to be me
Someone to face the day with
Make it through all the rest with
Someone I'll always laugh with
Even at my worst I'm best with you, yeah
...Now someone needs to make it into a Ned/Mike slashvid.
