It's time for a Booty Call!
Jaime Foxx stars in Cloumbia Pictures new release
by Christina Meihl
Collegian Staff
It is Friday night, and with a
satirical name like "Bunz," what
else would you be doing except for
scoping out a "Booty Call?"
It is a hilarious comedy created
with the purpose of entertainment
in mind. The main characters were
played by a couple of witty
comedians from the television show
"In Living Color." Tommy
Davidson and Jamie Foxx. These
comedian characters give Booty
Call the titillating flavor it feeds to
the audience by mimicking
everyday molehill situations then
exaggerating them into a humorous
mountain of laughs.
Rushon, played by Davidson, is a
young man who is currently in his
first real relationship with his
girlfriend, Nikki. They are going
out together on a double date and
have arranged for their friends Bunz

Project Kate: Mission Accomplished
by Sheila L. Bickel
Entertainment Editor
For those of you who are looking
for something a little different,
Project Kate has released the album
"the way birds fly."
This five member band is
comprised of Kate 08, Sergio Vega,
John K., Norm Arenas and kb
Pearles. All of these individuals
have gotten together from their own
bands to produce a surprisingly
enjoyable CD.
I wish I could speak of this band
as if I knew them and their work,
but I was only introduced to them
about two days ago. But I know
what I like and this definitely fits in
that category.
There are eight songs on the
entire disc and each of them offers a
folksy, Indigo Girls-type sound
with beautiful yet simple lyrics to
match.
The first track entitled, "Simon
Says," reminds me very much of
the Indigo Girls' song "Least
Complicated" The acoustic guitar
rhythm is the most prevalent sound
in the song, which I think is about
and Lysterine to go out with them.
Rushon and Nikki have been dating
for seven weeks, and had not yet
had intercourse. Before the double
date, Bunz and Rushon had made a
bet on who would "score" first.
With that in mind, the mood is set.
Bunz's personality is that of a
dog. He does not believe in
relationships or love, only in one
night stand booty calls (and he
believes that he may get one with
his blind date). His rude behavior
mixed with the personal viewpoints
of everyone (guy vs. girl) clash at
dinner and cause multiple
arguments. The plot later takes an
unexpected twist when Rushon is
accidentally shot and ends up in a
hospital. This new mood and scene
adds to the volatile humor of the
movie.
Basically, sex and relationship is
the subject of conversion and action
throughout the movie. The movie
Booty Call is R-rated because of the

a relationship between lovers who
are not currently together. The
lyrics read, "...do thoughts of me
ever pass you by? / Cause I'm so
alone without you / I'm suffering
without y0u..."
The next track is called "The way
/am (or not at all)." Here the
electric is more in effect and takes
the song almost to the realm of pop
music but not quite. (When the
song started I almost thought it was
a Blondie remake). This song
appealed to me for it's shout of
independence... "but you're gonna
have to love me the way I am or
not at a 11..."
"Father" is a song of
misunderstanding. Kate 08, who
sings all eight tracks on the album,
slows it down and drags the
individual notes out as a violin
melodically plays in the
background. Here she wonders why
she thought that her father might
understand her...she's only lived in
his house for 19 years. She talks
of feeling abandoned and lonely.
(This isn't the happiest of songs on
the CD).
blatant, exploitative talk and scenes
involving sex. Different
embarrassing everyday situations,
such as using a condom, are greatly
exaggerated for the sake of humor.
However, the idea of safe sex is
very much expressed and serves as
one of the main points of the
movie, along with the difference
between cassual sex and real loving
intimacy.
There were certain points and
themes expressed in this movie, but
it was overall a film created for the
entertainment of pure joy and
laughter.
I give this movie a two thumbs
up for being totally out of line and
downright funny. It also has a plot
based on a n experience that almost
all of us can relate to in some small
way. The only negative aspect
about this movie is that it ends
abruptly and leaves you craving
more plot full of Foxx's crazy
antics.

"...the storm I saw blowing in
through the open window / with the
leaves of fall / you went to
California and I followed you there
/ memories faded and torn / the cold
emptiness of silence and despair..."
"California " is a simply beautiful
tune. It has what I guess you
would call an organic feel to it and
a true sincerity.
"Stare at My Sky," "M.K.,"
"Bobby" and "Disappeared"
complete the CD.
On the insert Kate 08 says: "To
me, it is evidence of many different
eras in my life," which as a listener
I could pick out. I felt that her
words were sincere.
I'm not going to say that this
CD is going to be on Billboard's
Top Ten list or that certain songs
are going to go platinum, but I will
say that this is a hidden treasure. It
is one of those CD's that you'll be
listening to and a friend will ask
you who it is because he or she
likes them. Just smile and say
Project Kate. (You and me will
understand).
