Wednesday 'Why': Herc and the Bachelorette, redboxing, and the number one movie I never wanted to see that made me cry

For all of you who have requested the return of the Wednesday 'Why'... and you know who you are... here goes:

Monday night I had the privilege (it took me three tries and one dictionary to spell 'privilege'. I wish I was joking)  of watching The Bachelorette with Brooke and Megan instead of by myself on hulu the next day like I usually do. I'm happy to say that watching with them makes an otherwise boring season wonderfully enjoyable. You may recall that a couple posts back I mentioned the similar physical appearance to Hercules of one contender for Ashley's heart. If you don't remember, here he is again:


Unfortunately, Hercu-Nick's godly physique wasn't enough to win her over and was sent packing. Not to worry though! The girls argued that there is another hopeful fellow that better fits the cartoon-y profile and that I had previously overlooked:


None other than our favorite Ivy-leaguer himself... Ames. After giving it a little too much thought, I decided that Ames' features are truer to cartoon Herc, where Nick could play the character in a Disney theme park. Luckily, Hamesules (Herculames?) is still very much in the game despite the mild concussion he received during an ill-conceived boxing group date. The question is...

Why does Hercules keep creepin' into The Bachelorette instead of staying in his Disney film where he belongs? 

Seriously though... any version of Herc--be it the hunky cartoon, or just a real-life look-a-like--is too good for the likes of Ashley, no matter how 'perFACT' she thinks he might be for her.

...In other news, we visited redbox last night for the first time in a long time to rent Waiting For Forever, which was filmed in Utah, had many a familiar face, and was a lot better than I expected it to be. Red was feeling generous, or I guess just looking to prey on an unsuspecting victim like myself and offered a second movie at only 50 cents. Naturally I accepted. Which brings me to the final part of my post: What is the number one movie I never wanted to see that made me cry that I should be but am strangely not embarrassed to admit?


... um, yeah.

  1. UGH. Now I want to see it! Tyler said it was terrible… and he LIKES disney shows (the classics; That's So Raven, Hannah Montana, Wizards Of Waverly Place). So now I am ultimately curious.

    Also, I love that you said perFACT!
    Also, once more, I think we should try and watch the Bachelorette EVERY week together.

  2. I told you it was a good movie! And I'm not even a little bit embarrassed to admit that I liked it.

    Also...I'm with Brooke, we really should try and watch The Bachelorette together every week because it does make it a whole lot better. :)


    PS I like Hamesules. :)

    ... Yeah. I'm feelin' a little Bieber Fever comin' on. What? There's something I never thought I'd say.

    Hamesules it is.
