I didn’t Quite dislike this movie, but I could only watch twenty minutes at a time, not thirty. (I watched slightly larger chunks near the end so it’d be more like, round numbers, you know. Plus, it’s always more exciting to finish something up.)
Well, I guess for a lot of people this is like the correct masculine version of being a teenager, right. “Hollywood is such shite; if only there were fewer girls and more disgusting boys lol.” Which is kinda almost cool; the only thing is, while I like girls (I must NOT be a straight guy lol—loopy face smilie), boys are…. Different. It’s amazing to me that a gender that so dominates society can be so, different, from what’s normal, you know….
Anyway, in case you were wondering: I’m not being judgmental; I took a class on that one time, lol…. You know, one time my dad—and I mean, my dad is my dad, but I don’t really like him that much; I hope I don’t make the same mistakes—he was talking about how one of the old chicks at his Bible study thought he was digging too deep, forgot to call 411 or whatever, and said you know, “I think the people who try to Figure Everything Out are arrogant”, so the aristocrat of the Bible study says: I don’t think they’re arrogant…. And it’s like Dad, you know that, because of how arrogant YOU are, because YOU are that person, right…. Yeah, that’s why the old guard church man is so set against there being such a thing as a point of view, you know—any time, ever, or whenever I say, right…. But yeah, that said, I read a book on being non-judgmental once, so I’m not judging Napoleon. (laughing with tears cat smilie)
It’s just that he’s so ugly, you know…. I mean, not the way he looks, but like: the way he acts and like, everything about him….
Obvs.
But again: I am OBJECTIVE knowledge, right.
There ain’t no red trick that can stop me from being everyone, while dismissing most people. (ok sign smilie)
Anyway, it’s fine—boys are too weird; girls are too perfect….
I like girls better, though. They’re better for sex. (laughing cat smilie).
But I mean, I feel a little conflicted, because now I started to explore this director, (I do them in threes), and I can sorta get through it, and sometimes it surprises me and sometimes it even doesn’t disgust me, but…. But I would NOT date Napoleon, if I were a girl.
That’s not what I’m going for. (laughing with tears cat smilie)
But I don’t know; I’ve watched some questionable Old Hollywood movies—I guess now I can watch some questionable 21st century movies, right….
And I guess nothing’s as questionable as those 40s movies, or whatever, but it’s not like Napoleon wins an award for the Pedro romance, right…. I don’t know; some people like it, I guess….
Then again, some people are crazy. (melting face smilie)
…. But it’s okay, because when the revolution comes, we won’t need girls anymore. We’ll be cyborg beings that reproduce by welding on replacement sheet metal over the rotting flesh, and eat tater tots that we put in our pants pockets, you know.
…. I mean, I think it’s important to see both sides of an issue and be really subtle and indirect, so let me just close by saying: imagine a gay guy who’s a comedian; what would he say about Napoleon. “OMG, he’s so UGLY, OH MY FUCKING GOD….”
…. I guess Napoleon dancing to the Motown song was kinda cool, but I still don’t see why Pedro’s opponent wasn’t some preppy guy instead of a popular girl, you know. You guys do remember that Katniss shot President Coin, right? Otherwise it’s like—I mean, the hero’s supposed to face down their shadow; the shadow’s not supposed to be like, THEM, it’s YOU, right…. And then there’s the obligatory worst-casing of a salesman, lol…. It’s like, You’re not family if you make money, lol…. And I don’t know, of course popular girls always get the flak in movies, and part of it is that people like them more in real life; but the other thing is, it’s easy to SAY something negative about them, because a pretty face isn’t like, a verbal thing, right; it’s not like you’ve actually DONE something different, it’s just, you know…. I don’t know.
It’s like you have your own little space where your enemies are just as unwelcome as you are with them, lol.
(shrugs) So yeah.
…. Napoleon Dynamite: I shot President Coin too, Katniss; I don’t understand what you’re talking about! God!
