Time to show those evil spuds what's what

[agentdanger]

The other day during film/video production [a course I'm taking at Penn], the class hipster made the remark that "gore in movies is what people do when they want to do something easy."

This comment really rankled me, due to the fact that this guy's own final project, which he had just finished screening for us, was an "experimental documentary"

yeah dude, i'm in penn's dv editing room... which is what reminded me of this incident!

Have you heard the song "Experimental Film" by TMBG? It sort of makes fun of filmmakers who are full of themselves like that.

On an unrelated note, your icon disturbs me.

[agentdanger]

haven't heard the song...guess i should look it up!

as for the "happy boy" icon, i've had it for about a year now but have never used it to post with... cause i knew it would deeply trouble the people on my friends list, and they're an excitable bunch even without a crudely smiling manniquin face to haunt their nightmares. then today i finally deployed it, because, in this situation, my emotions cannot be expressed by any other means.

sorry, i clicked the "post comment' button by accident before i finished writing it, so sorry if you get two comments from me, one incomplete!

You rule. I am obviously dying to see your film.

[agentdanger]

yeah dude, wait till you hear the cheesey kung fu sound effects...

[that i'm using cause i forgot to make my own and which don't go with the movie AT ALL!!!] -- yikes

[frankiethirteen]

if you can't beat 'em, hire a thug and make an "experimental documentary" about the thug beating 'em!!

You know something, that sounds like a great idea!!

[spiffk]

Forget the thug, grab a lead pipe and give it that personal touch.
