The New York Times reported last year about a new trend that may find its way to bars in the South Sound - it's called movieoke, and it combines karaoke with clips from popular movies. Would-be actors take the stage, microphone in hand, and act out a scene from their flick of choice, all the while the script scrolls by on a teleprompter and the movie plays on the screen behind the actor.
I perform movieoke every time I drink wine with my television.
"You talkin' to me?"
"Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?"
"Ah, hon, ya got Arby's all over me."
Anyone?  Anyone?
When I heard Winestyles Wines and Gifts and Wine Bar screens free movies at its Pearl Street location you can imagine my glee.
Well, do ya, punk?
There will not be a handsome man representing an unpronounceable vineyard in a country I can't quite pinpoint to make me realize how little I know about wine - and the etiquette. I will not spit it into the bucket after swishing it around like Listerine. Nope, I'm going to swill and chat up the movie.  If you're hoping to relax, sip and take in "Brokeback Mountain" Saturday at Winestyles - forget it, sister.
