re: the Tootsie Roll Pop redo: Not sure you like? Not sure you like? It's the most horrendous pile of CG to ever be birthed. Blech. I had to chew 50 Tootsie Roll Pops just to get the bad taste out of my mouth. Maybe THAT was the point.
I was being diplomatic:-)
Very disappointing. A shot by shot "makeover" should add something new - this doesn't add anything.
Besides, I was hoping that any spot that opened with "How many licks ..." would end with something involving Paris Hilton. I feel so used!
