So, So Effing Hot

Brian, last night I had this crazy dream where I was eating a sheep and now my pillow's gone... Oh wait, here it is. What the hell was I eating?



















Bloody hell - it's so effing hot! Argh! Even at night. And when it's cloudy. And in the refridgerator (don't ask). Yesterday they played a great old Simpsons episode where Lisa cheats on a test. Why is this show not as brilliant as it used to be anymore? Argh! Family Guy and South Park have left it in the dust. Argh!

Anyways, I feel too lethargic to write much. I saw two films I shall now not analyse. Rocky gets a B. Highlight: Finding out that Sylvester Stallone could once act, and could once write. What happened? The ending is awesome. Yay.

Yesterday I saw Three Kings. This is by the guy who made I (Heart) Huckabees. Very entertaining movie. A bit too Hollywood at the end, but as this movie features Ice Cube pulling a Stallone and acting well (omfg), Cliff Curtis as an Iraqi rebel (hehe), and acclaimed director Spike Jonze as a US solider and the fourth biggest character (OMFGWTF?) it gets a B+.

I obviously recommend both films.

I also watched the latest mindblowing extravaganza from the mind of visionery auteur Dennis Liu, and am still pondering its meaning. I shall elaborate in my "The Films Of Dennis Liu" feature some time this week, though I must say well done, good sir. Top notch camerawork and editing as always, the music works so bloody well and I just wish I could unlock this complex-yet-simple short's hidden secrets sooner than I thus far have. I have a theory involving a talking giant cookie and rice paper, but I shall not say more until this is fleshed out in my mind and supported by evidence.

For those yet to see his latest movie, here's an unauthorised still frame to whet your appetite:



















What does it all mean? Possibly, as Leonard F Wheat suggests, that the overman will triumph over HAL, and that (as this image suggests) the overman is moronic. Doesn't say much for regular man. Liu's film must therefore be critical of humanity, and pro-rice-paper-wrapped-cookies. Yes.... the theory is coming together...
