j0ekerr: Good morning my friends, how are you today?
I'll catch up in a moment, but let me first tell you about yesterday night.
So I and a couple more friends decided to go watch the new CG movie based on iconic anime series from late seventies, "Space Prate Captain Harlock". There were six of us, and there was a grand total of six people in the cinema.
The movie itself was dumb as fuck, and I don't use the expletive lightly, the whole thing is a big fucking fucked up messy clusterfuck. The plot is a confused convoluted mess that makes no sense, having no proper beginning end or middle, nothing is properly explained, neither the setting nor the characters motivations. Everybody is dumber than a sack of bricks and fuck-all-pants-on-head retarded. The dialogue was stupid with mushy unrealistic emotional moments and pointless angst-ridden moments of wailing to the heavens. At the end, you're left with a feeling that you have no idea what the fuck you just saw and nothing about it made any kind of sense at all.
I declare, Japanese storytelling at its finest.
And it was glorious, I went in expecting a visually pretty, (and believe me when I say this, the CG is gorgeous in this movie) but dumb as fuck movie and I was NOT disappointed. However the fun I had was not because of the movie but at the expense of it. Since we were alone at the movie we could not annoy anyone else. So we spent the whole length of the damn thing, two whole hours, MST3K'ing the shit out of it and poking fun, loudly, at its numerous plot holes and overly dramatic nonsense, of which there was no shortage at all. And laughing out like hyenas at one glorious line, which was supposed to be all deep and awe inspiring, but which was nothing short of an idiotic motivational poster one liner. I even took my smart proffesorial pipe and declared for everyone to hear, "excuse me but what narrative purpose did that scene exactly serve in the overall cohesive story other than to show us some NEKKID SPACE CHICK IN ZERO-G SHOWER".
And congratulations to our dear little owl on reaching a 100 rep while I'm still stuck at 98. I blame DD for this.
99 now..
