Bittersweet Ramblings

Movies are just moving paintings with sound.  They keep you very close to them, and away from the light of day.  They lie to you.  They tell you things only a moviegoer can understand.  But they are really pretty beasts.

Stuff that I read before I recorded this:

Under the Silver Lake is brilliant if you are a teenager who is obsessed with playing records backwards for secret messages.  In other words, if you are looking for conspiracies everywhere because you are very, very, bored, you'll probably like this movie.    

It's a really pretty movie if you turn the sound off, though.  And your storyline is probably going to be better.

The Kissing Booth is a Netflix film that was picked when my niece, because all my movie choices are "too old".  Yes, she is 12.  She is guesting on this episode because she told me that she was guesting, and I find it best not to argue with her.  

We talk about which part of the movie to skip (the entire second half - spoiler), which animals she will allow to live when she is a veterinarian, and what human being she would be willing to feed to a hungry animal.

50 First Dates is the story of a man who is obsessed with reliving the first date experience, and his dream girl who has head trauma, and can't remember any of their dates.  Also looking at the other side of the coin with Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, where the couple no longer wants to remember any of their dates.  Which side do you fall on?

Shuttleworth (Interval) by Marco Tovatello

The Money Pit is the story of a neglected house trying to use some Rube Goldberg style accidents to remove its current owners. They should have paid more attention to its needs.  Also Wile E Coyote should have made lunch of that stupid bird.

Alien is a movie about a Space Tug that was sent to do scientific research, because their power-driven manager was trying to hijack another department's meeting.  Promising the moon and stars to the executives in attendance because the other manager took the last danish.   

As a notice to all the space corporations out there, maybe don't send a space tugboat crew to do potentially dangerous space exploration.  Maybe focus on their strengths, like space tugboating.

Happy Song (Instrumental) by Pachyderm

Valentine's Day is not a holiday for expressing caring and devotion between couples and loved ones.  It is a strategy game used to increase social standing, starting in elementary and continuing through your last years in a nursing home.  Not that I have any resentment towards this "holiday".  At All.

The club scene in Constantine could have been Night Court for the supernatural.  The opportunities for petty grievances are endless.  It really was an opportunity missed.

101 Dalmatians is a story about a school chum who tried to step in and in turn had her good name tarnished when trying to prevent an animal hoarding situation.  Beware of anyone who has walls full of pictures of nothing but random dogs, nothing good can come of it.

Weird Science is an attempt to do a Cinderella story for the 80's boys.  It is filled with a mutant biker gang, the 80's style computer sorcery, and a magic woman created by guys wearing bras on their heads.  The description above makes the movie sound significantly better than it is.
