I love the Trailer Park Boys, but oh man did I ever enjoy reading the merciless reviews of Swearnet: The Movie. It's weird to me that the main takeaway the people involved in TPB got from its fandom was "people are showing up to listen to us cuss." Like, that is some fifth-grade level reasoning.

Collateral Damage posted:There's a short movie/documentary on youtube about a family that went absolutely mental over beanie babies and put all their savings and every spare penny they had into buying them as an investment. Buying out all the local toy stores' stock as soon as they opened after getting a delivery, going on cross country trips just to find rare ones, that sort of thing. They still had thousands of worthless beanie babies all neatly sorted sitting in their basement. It seemed like they had come to their senses and accepted that they had been stupid though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PgDsyj5eLmo It's a grim watch.

There are people really into complete-in-box games that will even pay for those awful, kitschy Nintendo Power subscription come-ons.

Mu Zeta posted:One of my favorite scenes in the movie is the unisex shower scene. Fascism sucks but in this future they finally reached gender and racial equality and they only sexualized it a little bit. If you watch the scene again nobody is ogling at each other whatsoever. Verhoeven is great, and I loved the first half or so of Starship Troopers, but I felt like it lost its satirical edge at some point and never recovered it.

Das Boo posted:Speaking of film, I really wish the States would put less stock in how hot their actors are. I can't tell a lot of the fuckers apart, or at least am really bad at confusing [x] for [y] since they're all set to such a narrow standard of "acceptable." Foreign actors are always very memorable for how different they look or, hey, maybe because they're better actors than they are models. More Peter Lorres, fewer... whoever those kids in Cloverfield were. All of them. Yeah, agreed on this one, too. You ever watch old TV? They used to let ordinary-looking people have recurring roles, for god's sake.

sassassin posted:That's underthinking. If people are genuinely missing an obvious point, accuse them of thinking badly, not of thinking too much. This is a good post, really well-put. This line of discussion reminds me of something I recently read and quite liked; rather than try to whip up my own clumsy paraphrase on the spot, I'll quote from someone else's: quote:Caetlin Benson-Allott’s claim in her book Killer Tapes and Shattered Screens [...] draws a link between VHS and the opening credits of the 1980 film Friday the 13th, where the title card appears to crash through a glass plane, the shards spinning out menacingly towards the viewer. Although it is hardly the first time a title sequence has broken the fourth wall, this act explicitly positions the film as a televisual work, designed to threaten the hermetic nature of the home viewer’s TV-set. This moment, she writes, is emblematic of the massive shift in film spectatorship towards VHS and the home-video viewer. The broken glass is a historical marker of puncture, of a new dynamic between film and viewer that hits you where you live. Whether or not that was the director's intention (e.g. the choice of having the title card smash through a glass [television] screen rather than tearing through whatever it is movie screens are made of) isn't really important, because it does provide the critic and her readers with a jumping-off point from which she can continue her discussion/argument/etc. This feels like an example of what your average "switch your brain off" viewer would accuse of being "overthinking" - it's one moment, and not even a diagetic one, in the first film in what's largely regarded as a trash series within a trash genre, i.e. exactly where one would expect to switch off one's brain. And yet! This is why "overthinking" popular / "trash" culture is valuable: every decision that gets made in a work was at least theoretically made for a reason - maybe not a good or interesting one, but often worth considering independently and as working parts of a creative whole.

It is hot garbage served on disgusting bread that tastes like a sponge and paper towel had sex with sourdough. Its just disgusting globs of over spiced stew thrown onto a trencher. No idea how anyone can like it. I like Ethiopian food a lot, but these sentences were a pleasure to read.

I'm a progressive, and I grew up on early SNL and Hunter S. Thompson, and so I was led to believe that Nixon was way, way more of a shitheel than he actually was. I'd take a wiser, post-presidency Nixon over our past three presidents without blinking an eye.
