Blaids part 2
Say what you like about Kim Jong-il but....
Ok, basically what I’m trying to say here is, it’s time to lay off Hitler. Everyone’s favourite Jew beater has been dead sometime now, and it’s not like there aren’t other monstrous dictators to vent our respective spleens at. Like Robert Mugabe, the natural progression of letting farmers keep shotguns. Kim Jong-il, half puppet half cockroach. Or George W. Bush......Twat. Although to be fair on that point I don’t think Bush has done anything too painfully stupid in the last few months (unless you count waking un early one morning in April to take a shit on cheany’s desk. But if you knew the two of them personally you’d understand it was all in jest, it’s just one of the many little games they play with each other, something akin to a mating ritual. There were no hard feelings.)
Dear god! The President of the United States taking a shit on the vice president’s desk?! What horrible, borderline psychotic tangent have I run into this time?
I can’t even remember what I was getting at, maybe pointing out that it’s a good thing that America pays no attention to the sick and disturbed personal and social life of their soon to be ex-president.
But no. That wasn’t it. Korea makes some great films. That was the point. (Or it is now.)
A couple of nights ago I sat down to watch ‘D-Wars’ (or ‘Dragon Wars’ as it’s been re-named for the west audience. Because we’re stupid.) And though I was a little full of beer, I managed to follow most of it. I’m fairly sure there were 2 ancient dragons, one evil and one good, who each needed to take the soul of some girl with a tattoo so they could ascend to heaven. But I’m not sure why as it seemed that they came from heaven, and as the chick would die either way I’m not sure what the point of following her story was. But who cares giant dragons and a plethora of big ass dinosaurs (oh yeah, they turned up with some dude who can explode fire balls with a wave of his hand) were setting about beating the living shit out of L.A. So to me, that’s a good film. But it did lead me to realise I don’t think I’ve ever truly ‘understood’ a Korean film. I’ve enjoyed them. And after two or three viewings I’ve got the gist of what was going on. If you want to know what I mean, watch ‘Casshern’, utter, beautiful, insanity. And with that in mind I’m gonna go watch ‘Volcano High’ slightly less of a mind fuck, but still pretty senseless.
You can’t get the image of bush dropping trou’, and squeezing one out can you?
