A friend recently showed me a post by an underage camwhore about boozing up gummies and making them the stuff of nightmares. And if you’ve been following my blog long enough you know that I don’t bother making a point unless I mean to take it so far past its logical extreme that it leaves you awake at night, hugging your knees and shaking back and forth, wishing you were this amusing.

And unlike most of my drink posts, this isn’t waiting until the next Friday because you need time to prepare these if you’er going to be dealing with family this “festive*” season.

Well, not really old. In fact, quite modern cel-shaded 3D CGI animation that’s gorgeously done and makes everything look like it’s made from old wood… people included.

However, let it be shown the results of far too much religious fervour in an ignorant population.

 

Special thanks to Charlie for pointing this one out.

I don’t know if you followed this particular little saga, but thanks to some of our ridiculously out of date laws regarding obscenity, a man that simply wanted to screen a pointlessly violent, homoerotically pornographic film that was a travesty against god, nature, man and quality cinematography has now become vilified, nay, crucified by “The System.”

It all began back in July, 2010 as part of the Melbourne International Film Festival. Richard Moore, the director for MIFF received a letter Classification Australia that Bruce LaBruce (a man that should be granted honourary Australian citizenship for his name alone) “Ed Woodian” film L.A. Zombie was not going to be granted classification.

Things were looking up for intellectual snobs such as myself that like to see real arthouse films, such as animated fox puppets questioning their purpose in life. (more…)

There’s a lot of bad TV out there, and it can be amazingly hard to find something worth watching. Something that has a point, decent character and plot development, perhaps something of a message. Of course the problem with all that is that we begin to care about the characters… which of course makes it amazingly difficult when something bad happens to them. We get hurt because some bastard writer is attempting to score an emotional response from us.

But what about the TV shows that, overall, become so harrowing by the end of their run that they make you want to curl up into a little ball and weep.

**SPOILER ALERT**

If you don’t know how Alf, Dinosaurs, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Daria, Buffy, M*A*S*H, Now Then Here & There or Saikano / She The Ultimate Weapon end, and would like that to remain a mystery until you’ve seen the shows, don’t read the rest of the article. (more…)
