In the first of our new series of "micro-episodes", MoP favourite, Omar Majeed defends the much maligned Adam Sandler movie, Billy Madison (1995). The conceptual reasoning behind these micro-episodes is to up our production output by doing, what the kids call, a "hot take" on a movie or topic within the cinematic discourse. Less work, less impressive but a hell of a lotta fun! And these days, don't we all just want a little more fun in our lives? Still, it wouldn't be an MoP episode without some random Lacan references and some unnecessary psychoanalytic cultural theory thrown in there to impress the elites! So don't panic pseudo intellectuals, we will never forget about you, as we are one of you!
NOTE: MoP highly recommends that you re-watch the film in question while high, with multiple shitty snacks, wearing either a "onesie" a "slanket" or just in your underwear, as long as you've been wearing them for at least three days straight. ENJOY!
