According to Harmony Korine, he wrote the film partially to make up for his own spring breaks, as he had been fully devoted to skateboarding, and therefore missed out on what he saw as opportunities for hedonistic pursuits.

What a lame film.

Harmony korine wrote Kids when he was 19 and wrote/directed gummo in his mid 20s, while banging heroin and chloe sevigny. I think he did fine on the hedonism front lol

It’s actually really funny to think of spring breakers as harmony korine’s fantasy about what spring break was like, given what he was actually doing in his 20s. Like if you’re living his life and still feeling like you’re missing out on the ultimate spring break debauchery, what does that even look like in your brain?

Suffering through the second and third seasons of the Walking Dead was made easier by reading along with the tviv thread when the episodes first premiered, that poo poo was pretty funny

the funniest thing I remember was their brilliant plan to capture a zombie and nearly die repeatedly in the process. TVIV reframed it as some whacky get-rich-quick scheme

also Shane wasting water at every opportunity by furiously dousing himself in it


e: I signed off when they went from one episode where Carol annihilated an entire camp herself, to her panicking and tripping over her own feet. like all of the worst aspects (inexplicable behavior, people dying for no reason, zombies spawning off-screen) it was just another dogshit baseline attempt at creating tension. also she should've hooked up with Reedus, they had palpable chemisty compared to that blonde girl and were probably the only good part of the show

Yeah, I suspect a lot of this is the conflation of some anti-intellectual sentiment with various different forms of male condescension / pretension.

I remember one film class where another student took me to task for enjoying Jupiter Ascending -- just straight up five minutes into the first class, publicly slagging me off and being really condescending about my opinion.

And I've certainly been to parties where once the resident film friend hears you also like film they decide to purity test you to see if you're worth their time -- had one guy quiz me about what I thought about Spring Breakers, and another particularly drunk guy go on about True Detective, Nolan and test me on my knowledge of film vs digital cameras.

I could imagine someone experiencing enough of those interactions and just swearing off "men who like films" entirely.

a friend once asked if I could help someone with some storyboards for his western film pitch, for mood reference he mostly sent shots from the movie Ravenous

anyways the deal fell though and he sent a rant to my friend about how white men couldn't make it in hollywood anymore, they picked a woman because they are only interested in minority viewpoints, and a bunch of Jordan P evo-psych poo poo on why a woman could never direct a western

friend told him pretty much what you said about systemic sexism etc, then stopped to ask why I was grinning like a sicko
