The Kids Aren't Alright, and it's Mike Judge's Fault

May 09, 2008 20:03

As some of you may know, I'm scoring the essay section of a certain standardized test, and some of these kids are fucked up. I score over 200 tests a day, and of those, at least 50 contain something that makes me either give the monitor a look like the one my cat displays in my userpic, or want to slap my head in lieu of that of the student ( Read more... )

"It's important to go to church because Jesus died on a cross for us and now its our time to die for him."

Praise Jesus! *flips his SUV*

It's weird the movies that have had their comebacks recently. Nightmare Before Christmas is popular with kids who were basically in diapers when it premiered.

Not to ruin Nightmare Before Christmas for you, but what I remember most about it is that my dog died during the first time I saw it. I didn't see it all the way through, and I haven't watched it since.

It probably doesn't help that the film has a ghost dog in it. :/

I can see how that might ruin a movie for you. Don't worry, you're not missing much, despite what crazy goths will tell you. Even as a Tim Burton fan (his Batman is still my favorite, and Sweeny Todd has earned a spot on the very short list of musicals I'll watch without a fight), I still don't find Nightmare Before Christmas to be exceptionally good or interesting.

I've noticed a very consistent link between fans of Nightmare Before Christmas and fans of Rocky Horror Picture Show, as well. I think that's rather telling.
