Muppets Take Manhattan

"The Olsen Twins turn 18 next month!"---

Are you kidding me? Are we that desperate for any kind of news that we have to write articles about these two muppet's birthdays that wont even happen for another month? Who really cares anyways? From the articles I was reading, the whole hype is about all the millions of highschool and frat boys who have been waiting so long for them to turn 18. But why? Well obviously they are "legal" then, but what do all these boys expect? If they think that as the clock strikes midnight on their birthday that they are magically going to become whores and open their doors to the men of Manhattan just because they can, well sorry to burst your bubble, but thats not going to happen. They are going to be just as unattainable as they are right now, whether 18 or 30.

Personally, Ive never understood the whole obsession with them to start. Sure they are cute, but in a weird muppet/alien looking sort of way. Ive seen many regular girls who I think are prettier. Is it because they are twins? This is also another phenomenon that I am yet to understand. What is the obsession guys have with twins? Is it the raunchy thought of the possibility of being in the middle of a twin sandwich? Nevermind, I dont want to know.

I guess if they just did something I respected, maybe I would like them more, but that New York Minute movie- barf- just in the commercials you can see there are zero acting skills present, which is strange because they did use to be good child actors. Plus I find it hard to respect two girls that everywhere they go they have to hold hands, yet get upset when they are defined as one entity. Detach yourselves then! Oh and I love how they are always held to such high acclaim for their "empire" and how much money they have made. I think that their managers and publicists probably have a tad more to do with all that than they do. Although, this New York Minute movie has "their idea" written all over it.

Mary-Kate: Hey sis, lets make a movie or something!

Ashley:Oh we soo should! Lets make it about us running all around New York city in cute outfits and lets make there be hot guys in it too that are freaked out because we are twins!

Mary-Kate: Wow, what a great idea! Lets hold hands and skip down to tell our manager!
