So all together, film fans!!! If you ever see me use this expression – “Masterpiece of Narrative Subversion“ please know that I mean this movie makes no $#%$ing sense. I mean, I enjoyed Aqua Teen Hunger Force because it contains one of the most hilarious appeals to the audience I’ve ever viewed (warning, screener), but otherwise the movie’s a cataclysm of pointlessness. On the other hand, part of refining one’s taste is being exposed to oddball stuff once in a while, which this definitely was. Any movie which was quite popular and yet has no plot synopsis on imdb…. Warning Will Robinson, indeed, kids. I enjoyed it, but more along the cultural artifact lines, There were some very snappy one liners.
Much more enjoyable – the three episodes of Venture Brothers, which is a hipper than thou Jonny Quest. The Scooby Doo parody was pure evil. I heart Brock Samson, voiced by clean green actor Patrick Warburton.
Add pizza and beer to a date which included the foregoing and I had a very pleasant evening. After my ride home (and thank god, it was POURING bloody rain), I dreamed that somebody I’ve wanted to have sex with for about ten years jumped on me, and I said, “Jeez, I’d love to, but we can’t because of ” here insert extremely rational, sane, non-dreamlike reason. Then we put our clothes back on. I’m consoling myself that at least I got to see him naked. GRRRRRR. This thing inside my skull that wants me to be a better person is now in my dreams as well!!!! I demand a neuronal recount.
Much thanks to Cousin Gerald, who found this piclink for me. I entitle it “Luckier than the Average Bear”.
And now for something completely different….
If part of refining one’s taste involves looking at oddities from time to time, I’ll go with the pre-Hayes Code musicals of the thirties, thank you. It is true, however, that they too can be cataclysms of pointlessness on occasion.
Loved the bear story and gorgeous view provided therein.
