Is it wrong that Im a guy and yet really loved Whip It?
 
I mean I got a real buzz from seeing the Ellen Page charcter (Bliss) go from slightly awkward "not enjoying my life at all" teen to badass roller derby babe.

I mean I guess this movies target market is dissaffected indie/emo/goth teen/early 20s girls and yet I loved every minute of it.

Please tell me Im not alone :)

yes it is wrong and you should be ashamed...you need to lash yourself 30 times on your back with a whip

Janszoon 01-20-2011 05:50 AM

You're not alone. I thought that was a pretty good movie too.

Im usually the lasher rather than the lashee, but I'll give it a go with my riding crop :)

but seriously I did like it mainly for the roller derby scenes

I liked it :). What I can remember of it anyway.

Well I guess I just seen the whole movie through the trailer.
And it wasn't bad to watch. But that's probably not becuase the movie is that good :D.

HA! QUEER!!!!...

But seriously, nothing wrong with liking any film for any reason ever.

I also enjoyed Whip it, but I love Ellen Page, maybe you're weird for different reason.

Yea, she seems like a likable person. I thought she was pretty funny in Juno.

James 01-20-2011 11:31 AM

It had hawt girls, who didn't like it amirite?
But yeah, good movie.

ellen paige is overrated.

djchameleon 01-20-2011 02:02 PM

ellen paige is a good actress but she does nothing for me...I don't find her attractive at all

I don't think Whip it was "bad" at all, the acting was capable, the there was a decent level of humour and the whole piece had great heart in my opinion.

:yikes:

I've been told several times that I'm her lookalike.

FETCHER. 01-21-2011 08:46 AM

And thats a good thing dayvan, because atleast you are roughly, around that age :).

it's only a compliment if the person saying it likes Ellen, if not then take it as an insult.

plus you at least look your age, she doesn't
