I'm a Liz Lemon, too.

i never want to live anywhere perfect

open space and fresh air

green green grass and tremendous trees

a short bike ride to the open seas

there are a few places I like that feel like these

cool wind and warm sun

baseball fields where flowers are found

sea salt spray all around

we’re riding in your car with the window’s down

trashcans on sidewalks lining gutters

mailboxes near ditches and driveways

young kids in the street rehearsing plays

parents in a 6 car pile up on my favorite fairway

i never want to live anywhere perfect as long as my home is perfect

mixed together our passions in a fruit bowl

without you I’m a girl with sore soul

fruitless efforts wasted at every 8 mile toll

I literally made the comment yesterday that McConaughey would probably come back for the sequel, probably at a severely reduced rate. Maybe scale. Maybe scale plus ten dollars to do the entire thing shirtless. via

There was some confused & indignant reactions to my statement that Sloane ends up with Cameron & not Ferris. I’ve based this belief on many many viewings of the movie, discussions with fellow fans, an interview I once read where John Hughes said that Cameron and Sloane end up together (which of course I can’t find), and some wonderful Hughes essays that I’ve read over the years. seularen posted a gorgeous paragraph or two about Sloane & Cameron & said:

Sloane and Cameron totally end up together. Sure, Ferris is super excited about marriage, but do you ever think he’d actually go through with it? Of course not. Plus, Ferris isn’t really a real person to Sloane; he’s more of a caricature. Only Cameron really sees Ferris for who he is, which is a confused teenager propping up his huge cut-out image of a Titan amongst men so he can hide behind it.

The moment that cements Sloane/Cameron for me is actually when they’re talking about Ferris during the parade. It’s their ~shared interest, if you will, but you see the realization sinking in that Ferris is bigger than both of them. The parade is when you see Ferris truly enjoy himself, and it’s in that moment when he’s at his biggest. He leaves Cameron and Sloane both behind in his brightest moment, and I think he’d leave them both after graduation as well.

(I may have written a film essay about this once.)

Also, I want to read that essay! It’s a great debate and I enjoyed reading the responses. Proof once again that John Hughes was genius.

Sloane winds up with Charlie Sheen (Boy In Police Station) after stealing him from Jeanie Bueller (Jennifer Grey).

She likes bad boys, and Ferris was always just a minor league bad boy compared to the future Ricky Vaughn.
