That movie is one of those films that just utterly embraces what it is, without fear of what anybody else will think of it. It's silly, camp, absurd, makes very little sense, but it has more integrity than any two typical films combined.

I know, and I honestly love it with all my heart. It's honest about what it is, and it's fun! I have never not been grinning like a loon after the credits roll on it.

You guys have that problem that whenever you say, "flash" you sometimes inadvertently go, "ah-aaah!" at the end?

It is when you decide to watch some show on the CW and everytime they refer to the lead on the second show, you automatically start going "Ah-AAH!"

Love that song. I don't think I've ever seen the video, now I don't understand why it's not called Black Leather. I have to wonder what she thought when they said: "OK, we're going to to the video with a pair of chaps clinging to you legs." :) (Hint: in the UK chaps are men).

It's about Elvis Presley, and the name is derived from popular paintings of Elvis on black velvet canvasses. So maybe the producers wanted her to sort of resemble the bad boy leather wearing Elvis, rather than the flashy, embroidered, velvet jumpsuit, sweaty Elvis. Also I can't imagine what you'd think if you'd seen the term, "assless chaps."

So, Assless chaps. Both and oxymoron and redundant. An oxymoron because they're the ones that are actually full of ass. Redundant because all chaps are like that. Assfull chaps, which I guess would be the alternative would just be trousers. *<:*)X
