*The Warlock opens the door to his lair. He’s wearing a Ruthless Records t-shirt, blue jeans, white sneakers and gargoyle shades. He’s holding a Mega Pint of Barq’s Root Beer*
W: Welcome to my lair…welcome I don’t think so, but enter. Enter my lair if you dare. I’m your host The Warlock.
*Warlock makes the ground rumble before walking inside*
W: Tonight’s movie is actually one of Neyzor Blades all-time favorites. Since we’ve had a real string of good ones lately sans the Sandra Bullock disaster, I wanted to keep the momentum going by letting Neyz have one for once.
*Neyzor Blades is sitting in the recliner wearing standard attire*
N: Damn straight.
W: Her handpicked decision is the 1996 gay comedy THE BIRDCAGE. What’s this about? Gene Hackman plays a Republican Senator who’s son just happens to be gay. Hilarity ensues as the two worlds collide between the conservatives and the drag cabarets. I’ve never actually seen this before and the only thing I know about THE BIRDCAGE was it was featured in MAD Magazine when I was 10 years old. However, if Neyz says its good, I’ll expect good. So grab your popcorn, grab your drink and grab your woman because its time for THE BIRDCAGE
