Eh. It's alright.
5/10 is a not a bad rating, btw. Short Cuts was just half really interesting stories and half not-so-interesting stories. It was over 3 hours long and the ending for all the stories was a bit of a letdown (and the deus ex machina ending even worse). Just felt like a wasted opportunity, but it had its moments. |

![]() doom asylum - 7/10 Really fucking weird. ![]() breaking point - 8/10 This was by the guy who made THriller: A Cruel Picture, and it is weird and awesome. There are actual sex scenes in this (actual penetration, cumming, oral sex) and a ridiculous plot about a boring office worker pissing in cups of coffee, having girls fuck gearshifts, playing with toy trains, having nightmarish psychadelic acid flashbacks, and beating people to death with ashtrays. He buys exploding bullets and has a shootout with a helicopter and the police, and the action plays out in the reflection of his glasses and in one of the most artful scenes ever filmed. BRILLIANT film. ![]() charles manson superstar - 8/10 |

Derek, Red Room is hilarious and sexy but not very good. I'm glad they kept it short.
Never saw the second one. |

We're currently living in a fucking entertainment dead zone, aren't we? The period we're in now, a time not meant to exist. Reality has been delayed, the end of this timeline was somehow deferred allowing not a physical annihilation but a spiritual one. There is an emptiness to existence, everyone is in a panicked state of confusion, aggravation, uncertainty, going through a quiet nervous breakdown. Creativity has been used up, the limits reached, turning in circles, cannibalizing themselves for even a modicum of inspiration. The film and music industries stopped producing anything of relative meaning and therefore people's hope and lives are wandering down a very sterile path... no more inspiration, no genuine ambition, no real excitement, nothing to look forward to. Sequels to sequels or remakes of remakes, variations on variations. Besieged by a barrage of advertisements for useless products. Audiences at concerts stare blankly at musicians playing instruments that resonate nothing.
The true original experience of life simply doesn't exist anymore, only a desperate carbon copy of a need to recreate that experience or moment. We are sleepwalking zombies hoping for a magical experience that does not exist. Is Positive thinking a myth? I think so... Worst case scenarios do occur, there is plenty to fear, things don't always turn out alright, perseverance does not always bring results. Bad things happen to good people all the time. Realities are in conflict. This is not nihilism, it is not pessimism, it is simply a report on our current existence. Will only the deluded disagree? Who are the "deluded"? If everyone says everyone else is crazy, who really is? What defines "good" and "bad", "worthwhile" and "worthless" and why are mediocre-to-downright awful films so terribly overrated nowadays? Which is the correct reality, the correct perspective, opinion, viewpoint? Who is correct, the collective mainstream (and which collective mainstream?) or the individual? Is this why shows such as American Idol and their endless imitators are so popular these days, shows based on a group of individuals deciding for the masses what is good and not, because no single individual really knows how to decide for themselves, they need to be influenced or told? |
