Am I not allowed to make fun of my own condition ... or does that make me self-centred crazy?

Sorry about your condition but in total we are all affected by conditions imposed on us by rampant creation ...
 
God is said to be responsible ... possibly because of touch and go creative bursts ... these during periods of loss of thought ... or other displaced intelligence. This tends to be a touchy topic of confused subject-objective conflict with those that are convinced all mistakes in creation are fixed!

Jae we all have our flaws ... but some will deny eM! Me I admit to being cracked ... when in Rome do as the Romans do!

Do you know Jae, the incidence of mental-emotional disorders among the Caesars and later Noble layers of society? It is enough to create rifts in the social fabric ... almost like a Celtic ripper ... an ancient brae in phart?

Occasionally some intellect finds its way into this emotional dimension ... but this is generally ethereal ... or tin aired and vacuous ... this does allow for inertias of impact that can be heavy thoughts ... these lighter versions are wild gaseous laughter heard out there ... the inmates need to be entertained too ... so creation gave us inner space for the purpose of busting out of bored conditions ... ogre 'd?

That's it paint me ochre ... close to the core of what's incomprehensible! This is very humanist as poorly understood logic ... than pops up in reflection as in-humanist condition we are exposed to as a pain in the as sis ... for the following to learn from!

Now isn't that odd ... perhaps strange or Q' weird ... strange love?

...there's more than one?? The one I saw was in 3D. We had to wear the old-style 3D glasses to watch it. At one point it looked like the shark was going to jump right out into the audience for lunch .

Oh. So I was off by one. If it was in 3D, then it was Jaws 3. Still terrible.

There were four in total. The original (1975) was one of the best movies of the decade (and Steven Spielberg's second theatrical feature, and is widely considered to have started the whole "summer tentpole movie" trend). The second was okay. At least Roy Scheider was back as Sheriff Brody. The others are best forgotten.
 
Then there is 8D ... and how the impression was consumed or ate'D ... some populations consume little mentally and thus al-low 9D ... and there where thence no crumbs to be disposed ... as there will be no-where anything to be found thus the sublimation of Utopia ... and so it wends ... as all ouda shape in a wave ... like Ur after chi got what was sacredly desired ... something to cultivate in meta*for-ism? The things we don't know are maa sieve ... but don't carry much weight!
 
Hoo says you can't have fun with god and everything, a word attached, as in the beginning was a word of void ... an icon of what we knew and allowance to make play with IT! So it plaed out ... creating recession and other dimples as crevasse ...
 
from postpanic pictures comes a proof-of-concept film, as they write aboot their film "Sundays":
"Mischa Rozema and PostPanic Pictures' debut film project SUNDAYS completes a first step towards its Feature Film goal with the release of this ambitious proof-of-concept short. Much-anticipated and widely-supported by the international creative community (over 50K US Dollars was donated on Kickstarter alone for the live action filming part in Mexico City), SUNDAYS is directed by Mischa Rozema.

Set in Mexico City sometime in the future and starring US actor Brian Petsos and Mexican actress Sofia Sisniega, SUNDAYS is an ambitious philosophical science-fiction proof-of-concept short.

The end of the world seems like a nightmare to Ben. A memory of a past life that doesn’t belong to him. When Ben starts to remember Isabelle, the only love he’s ever known, he realises she’s missing in his life. An existential descent into confusion and the desperate need to find out the truth begins. This reality depicts a stunning, surprising and dark world. A world that is clearly not his."

Proof of concept? Would that require multiple exposure? Thus that man in the London Fog reappears ... flashing the stuff underlying the cover-up ... sort of like a foul of some sort in heat ... roasted pheasant? There was a video on the Weather Network ... as the po' guise was affecting a hen ...
 
Of course the fluff covered the private portions and thus perhaps a case of feather abba'd thing ... no freeing of a bare abba's there ... o' the depth of the deviation in literary devices! Mental projections?
 
moving on from the baroque Mexican culture to the opposite side of the pond, here is "850 meters" from Flanders, as they write:

"A not-so-brave knight is on a quest for Fame and Fortune - legend says rescuing a princess is the way to go. And in those same fairy tales, there's only one way to slay the dragon that hold the fair lady captive : find the invincible sword. To reach his goal, the knight is ready to go far. Maybe even as far as 850 meters..."

Saw Magic in the Moonlight, Woody Allen's 2014 movie on the weekend (Netflix finally added it in their April load). Nice little rom-com set in the 1920s but a bit fluffy without much of the philosophical and psychological introspection of Woody's better work. Some, but not a lot. Colin Firth and Emma Stone play their parts well (Colin moreso than Emma) and the supporting cast is strong. The age gap between male and female lead is only 28 years this time so quite believable (*sigh*) :rolleyes:. I'm not totally sold on the ending for a number of reasons and might have ended it differently myself but, hey, if I could do that I'd be making the movie instead of Woody. Like an old movie, the romance is quite chaste without even any kissing until the very end. Emma's attire is suitably modest as well, but she looks lovely in it (at least it's believable that an guy of Firth's age would crush on her even if them becoming a couple seems a bit off). Overall, a pleasant, entertaining way to kill 90 or so minutes. Oh, and it has a fantastic jazz and classical soundtrack, much of it using recordings from the right time period. Jazz legend Bix Beiderbecke figures prominently, a reflection (I assume) of the fact that Woody is both a fan of old jazz and a jazz musician himself.

I would have ended it with Stanley (Firth) watching wistfully as Sophie (Stone) and her new husband sail off in his yacht, then making some witty remark about how she touched his life and heart even if he knew it was never to be, then driving off in his friend's Alfa (a gorgeous automobile that figures prominently in several scene) with a tear in his eye.

 
It's possible that I mentioned this early in the thread but "Mom's night out" is excellent. I really like Sarah Drew anyway so I definitely had to see it and I'm glad I did. It's sweet and funny. It has Christian elements but I'm not sure if it would be called a "Christian movie" per se. It's not preachy but the characters do have good values. Anyway I think it's definitely worth seeing.
 
I watched "The Fault in Our Stars" on Netflix a few weeks ago. It was a great movie. I cried the entire way through it but I really enjoyed it none the less.

I saw the animated movie "Home" in theatres on Easter Monday. The main character is voiced by the man who plays Sheldon on The Big Bang Theory and he is pretty much the same character for this movie. The movie was done by the same people who did "The Croods" and I have to say I liked Croods better. This one was ok but not as funny as I was expecting. I think a lot of my enjoyment came from knowing who the people were voicing the characters rather than from the movie itself. There were a lot of kids in the theatre and they all seemed to enjoy it but I thought it was lacking the adult content that a lot of the animated movies have. All in all I'm glad I didnt't pay for it (had a free pass) but it was an enjoyable enough way to spend an afternoon.
 
i'm amazed at how cgi has gotten to the point where it is no longer a distraction for me (that takes me out of my movie immersion); oh, we've come a loooong way since War Games & Tron :3

though i still love the movies & plays that are able to negotiate between the audience's imagination & the creator's imagination -- cf. Jean-Luc Goddard's Alphaville, an SF showcase taking place in other planets but shot in Paris, France -- to show people travelling by spaceship to another planet, he'd show people walking across the seine on a bridge with rocket ship effects. or Chris Marker's La Jetee, told by still images & narration & sounds.

sometimes all you need for a costume is a red nose or acting, and let the audience use their imagination...*cue bugs bunny disguises*
 
Did anyone see the movie, "The Snow Walker" on TV tonight? Beautiful, beautiful movie and I highly recommend it. It's based on a Farley Mowat short story called Walk Well My Brother.
It's about a bush pilot in the northwest territories, who ends up agreeing to take a sick young Inuit woman (that he meets while delivering goods in the far north)with him back to the city hospital. The plane crashes on the way back and she shows him how to survive in the wilderness. Along the way, he learns so much more.
 
Watched a couple of classics on TV this week - "Kiss Me Deadly" - 1955 film noir classic; the stereotypes were amazing, the cheesiness of the 'atom bomb age' plot amusing!

And "Marriage Italian Style" 1964 with Sophia Loren - 'dramady' - overall an interesting cultural exploration :-) It was followed by a short made in the last year or two by Loren's son, and starring her "The Human Voice" - interesting to see her 50 YEARS later, still acting.

That's interesting! My "speedier" way to take notes in high school was to leave out all the vowels. It worked.
