I’ve Been Entertained By This?

Every year, we get list after list around this time.

This is my commentary on Entertainment Weekly’s 2010 Entertainers of the Year article. Keep in mind, that I offer only my opinion, and it is as true as I can possibly be.

[The auto-link for Affleck is for another, and better, Ben.]

1. Taylor Swift– Who?
2. Jon Hamm– Meh, ok.
3. Kanye West– Never.
4. Christopher Nolan–Tries too hard. Pass.
5. Kids of Modern Family— For about 22 seconds. Last year.
6. The Cast of The Social Network— A movie for and about people who think Facebook makes them relevant. NEWSFLASH! It doesn’t.
7. Lady Gaga– 24 years old? Reverse that, and I may believe it. Hag.
8. James Franco– Meh, maybe.
9. Katy Perry– Why does this person even exist. No.
10. Steig Larson–Author, apparently. Tagline in article reads, “Do you know anyone who hasn’t read the Millennium Trilogy?” My hand goes up.
11. Team Glee– For three episodes. Last year.
12. Ben Affleck– OK. My only positive response so far.
13. Suzanne Collins–Author. My other hand goes up.
14. The Men of The Good Wife— I’ll ask my great aunt; she’s the only person I know who would watch this.
15. Jaden and Willow Smith– CANCEL MY SUBSCRIPTION NOW.

Hopefully 2011 will have much more to offer.

  1. First off I want to say terrific blog! I had a quick question in which I’d like to ask if you
    don’t mind. I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your head
    prior to writing. I have had difficulty clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out there.
    I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually wasted simply just
    trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or tips?
    Kudos!

  2. I think what you composed was actually very logical. But, think about this,
    what if you wrote a catchier title? I am not suggesting your content isn’t good, but what if you added a post title to maybe grab a person’s attention? I mean I’ve Been Entertained By This?
    | Fandom Love is kinda boring. You might look at Yahoo’s
    front page and note how they create article headlines to grab people interested.
    You might add a related video or a picture or two
    to get readers interested about everything’ve written. In my opinion, it might bring your website
    a little bit more interesting.

  3. You really make it appear really easy with your presentation but I
    find this matter to be really something that I believe I would never understand.
