I don’t go to the movies that often so was somewhat unamused to discover an amusement tax!

Funny quote of the day (from a review of Sex and the City)
Likewise, Greek mythology begins with one question and one question only: Who has more fun in bed, men or women?”

I normally don’t get too excited about exposé documentaries. So when I was informed of this flick I figured it would be full of the same kind of cherry-picked propaganda that we find in most conspiracy theory movies.
Well, if it is, it sure does a pretty good job of appearing balanced. I watched the full feature last night and found it fascinating.

Solaris
I just finished watching the Russian film Solaris (1972).
Wow… this is a film to be seen.
Admittedly, it’s not as fast-paced as most Occidental fare. But if one regards it as a visual novel, and perhaps pauses the VCR or DVD for breaks every now and then (it actually took me two days to watch the whole film), one will probably be richly rewarded.
This film touches on several fascinating themes. C. G. Jung, I think, would have loved it. Very “inside-outside” and not a little unusual!

Star Wars according to a 3 year old
Star Wars according to a 3 year old.
I recently watched the original Star Wars (1977, enhanced edition) for the umpteenth time and was struck by two things–first how groundbreaking it was and, second, how some of the inside sets/scenes seemed to be influenced by Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey and to some degree Roddenberry’s Star Trek.
Likewise, it seems that the hanger scenes in Battlestar Galactica-Reimagined (BSG fans are gearing up for the fourth and final season starting in April) borrow from the rebel hanger scenes in Star Wars.
This all reminds me of those culturally backward folks who sniff and snort at the suggestion that sci-fi is myth that builds on myth not unlike any other myth. Why is it so hard for some people to get this? Minds locked in the past…?
