Wenn ich Dich/Euch jemals treffe, gibt's auf den Hinterkopf.
"This planet is a game reserve and they are the game" ist mit "Dieser Planet ist ein Spielfeld und sie sind das Spiel" nicht korrekt übersetzt. Wer war das? Ein Hauptschüler auf Praktikum?

Apr. 16th, 2010 05:11 pmPeeps,
if you think that mp3 is the way to make the CD obsolete, you really need to start listening to better music. That highly compressed, non-dynamic format may be all well and good for bland pop but if you want to get the most (and that means dynamic treble and bass) out of a piece of music, this simply will not do.
Metal, noise and the sorts of techno and rap I listen need that extra oomph!

Halloween II: An open letter
Dec. 8th, 2009 12:17 amDear Rob Zombie,
I realise that you love, or at the very least are fascinated by, Charles Manson. I respect that and even applaud the fact that you have managed to slip allusions to Charley's Family into the vast mjority of your ouvre. Maybe I sniggered a bit when you turned Otis from your take on "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" into a Charley-clone for "The Devil's Rejects", but at least it did fit the overall tone of the film.
Giving Michael Myers a big, bushy beard and letting him run around without his mask on for large parts of the film, just so he resembles a huge Manson or possibly just a bigger you was a bit silly, though. And not really helped by the film being boring, predictable, unengaging and lacking killings either nasty or entertaining. And why does Michael grunt all of the sudden? (Surely what was scary about him was his sheer lack of emotion). And will Malcolm MacDowell really do any film for money?
Look, there are some pretty funky dream sequences in this film that remind the discerning viewer of the cool visual stuff you used to do for White Zombie and even "House of 1000 corpses". You are good at that, use that. Maybe even in a film about Charles Manson. But please stay away from Halloween in the future.
Considering it's supposed to be a reimagining, it is sad that it only gets interesting as soon as you use the original Carpenter-music in the sort of hommage to "Psycho" which I had hoped for within the first half hour. Following *that* thread might have made for a cool film.
No love,
Me

Hillary Swank zeigt sich dem sechsjährigen Sohn ihres Partners öfters nackt. Und denkt sich nichts dabei. Weil sich kleine Kinder ja bei nackten Menschen auch nichts denken.
Da sagt ein Psychologe "sie sei schließlich nicht die Mutter des Kindes, wer wisse denn schon, wie der Junge sich später sexuell adjustiere?".
o_O Ja, wie, was jetzt? Wird der Junge später schwul oder pervers, weil er in seiner Jugend schon eine nackte Frau sah? Oder eventuell ausgeglichen und will dann keine unterdrückte sexuelle Erregungen schlecht sublimierende Medien konsumieren? Ja, mein Gott, da könnte ja die ganze westliche Welt einstürzen! Was soll nur werden wenn die jungen Männer der Zukunft später nicht "Transformers 4" sehen wollen?
Argh!

"Christian Concern for our Nation are probably wishing they lived in Ireland right now. In their latest mailshot they urge readers to complain to the BBC about “blasphemy” on Radio 4’s Now Show:

But after hearing Mark Kermode's review of "Brüno" I feel even less inclined to watch it than I was before. Up to now I had felt about the film the same way I felt about "Borat": Yes, it looks funny and cringe-inducing but I don't know if I really need to watch it on the big screen. With the slight difference that "Borat" obviously tackled issues like racism and people who need very little prodding before revealing their prejudices, while "Brüno" probably deals with homophobia somewhere along the way, except... none of the trailers and excerpts I have seen so far really mention/imply that. What they do stress very much are Brüno's outrageous outfits, ridiculous celebrity ideas (That adoptive child named "O.J.") and vigorous usage of the word "dildo". Yea, verily, apparently this film is most outrageous, edgy and controversial, not afraid of offending and not pulling any punches. Whoah!
Oh,by the way, when we say "not afraid of offending everybody", this does not include the large and very affluent number of Michael-Jackson-fans, for whose benefit (and purses) we shall remove a sequence that might remind them of what Mr. Jackson's public image was three weeks ago.
Which smells to me like an attempt at having your cäke and eäting it.
(oh, and I have just had a look at the dubbed trailer.
Point 1: Dubbing does your film no favours when you are dealing with supposedly "real" people.
Point 2: I am disappointed that Brüno did not get to speak in the austrian dialect. Come on, guys, if "Dead like me" can do it, so can you.

Die Flensburger Brauerei hat sich ja bis jetzt nicht wirklich durch Faulheit ausgezeichnet. Die Älteren unter Euch erinnern sich sicherlich noch an die Zeiten als es nur Flens gab. Flens war Bier und kam in einer Flasche, die lustig "Plopp!" macht, wenn man sie richtig öffnet*. Es gab Flens in genau einer Geschmacksrichtung, nämlich "Flens" und es war gut.
Gut für Dich, gut für mich, gut für Werner.
Und dann kamen die anderen Version, zuerst die normalen, wie das Alkoholfreie, dann die tendenziell trendigen, wie das Dunkle (Was ich liebendgerne trinke, auch wegen der Kinospots und der Tatsache, daß man es jetzt in einer 2-Liter-Megaplopp-Flasche kriegt) und das Gold und dann irgendwann hatte man die Gegend der guten Ideen vollends verlassen. Wer bitte braucht ein Weizenbier von Flens?
Das Malzbier hätte gut sein können, ist aber leider nicht sehr lecker, die Alsterwasserversion ist halt Alster und den Winterbock habe ich noch nicht probiert.
Aber okay, wenigstens treiben sie's nicht so bunt wie andere Sorten, die erstmal alle möglichen Brausemix- und Energyversionen ihrer Biere auf den Markt schmeißen. Das muss man Flens ja mal zugute halten: Bis jetzt kein "Flens E-X" mit Kirschgeschmack, dafür aber ein Öko-Flens.
Und natürlich wollen wir auch nicht vergessen, daß Flens inzwischen auch Bölkstoff herstellt (ach, die Wunder der Brauereiaufkäufe...).
Das macht summarum summarum bislang neun verschiedene Sorten Flens und irgendwie kriegt man doch das Gefühl, daß hier ganz stark darauf gehofft wird, daß Flenstrinker immer nur Flens trinken, auch wenn es bei anderen Brauereien bessere (weil originalere) Versionen der Biere gibt (Beim Ökobier kann ich Lammsbräu sehr empfehlen und beim Bock natürlich das Einbecker. Von den Weizen reden wir hier garnicht.). Aber nein, wer einmal Flens trinkt, der will alles von Flens, weil nur Flens flenst.
Und jetzt stehen wahrscheinlich einige von euch af und sagen, daß ich möglicherweise etwas übertreibe. Und diese Meinung steht Euch zu, aber.....
Was haben wir hier? Flensburger "Wasser".
Und nein, das ist kein lustiger Name für das Alkoholfreie, das ist tatsächlich Quellwasser in einer Flensflasche. Mit Bügelverschluss.
Ihr glaubt mir nicht? Geht selbst zu http://www.flens.de und schaut unter Produkte nach.
Es reicht!
Ich glaube echt, die wollen uns verarschen.
*Z.B. im Münchner Hauptbahnhof. Hihihi....

So I keep on looking at prices for "10,000 days" since the day it came out, but always I remember that I've got no money and so I go "No, be sensible. You can live without it."
Now, I recently had a project and I find the album for a very reasonable price and even though I have qualms about buying stuff for oneself when one should christmas-shop, I decided that Tool is fantastic enough to be a little naughty and get it.
What happens?
The fucking CD is warped! What are the odds of that?
And I can't exchange it before wednesday.
ARGH!

but why should I, seeing that you clearly don't have a brain?
Yeah, that's right, first you reenact Pasolini's "Salo" and when these people decide that their only way out is hanging themselves, all of the sudden, it's an act of warfare.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/5068606.stm
Oh, hang on! No, I have changed my mind, I agree: These suicides were acts of warfare. In fact, all these people, by allowing themselves to be shackled, confined and humiliated are in fact committing war-crimes.
Do you hear me?! What they are doing is committing acts of war! I demand that ALL the detainees/perpetrators of Guantanamo are immediately proscecuted and punished for these WAR CRIMES!
Oh, you think I am joking?
I am not, shit for brains! Have you forgotten that the justification for incarcerating these people in Guantanamo, far away from human rights, Geneva Convention and legal aid was that they are not in fact prisoners of war, but in fact "non-combattants"? Making them war criminals would necessitate all kinds of shit so far conveniently ignored.

The chocolate ginger nuts question
Jun. 11th, 2006 12:49 pmAs I was packing my stuff into boxes a few days ago, I was at a bit of a loss as to what to listen to while I was doing it. For some reason I was feeling like listening to some spoken word, which is a bit of a problem as I had never given into that recent craze about getting lots of audio books. But then, it would appear that some of the bad habits of an ex of mine had rubbed off on me, for I decided that the thing to do was to stick on the "Donnie Darko" director's commentary and try to not look at the screen.
I think that I lasted about twenty minutes before I had to turn it off.
I, just as a few of you, I'm sure, am the sort of person that director's commentaries were made for. I want the personal views, I want the trivia*, I want it all! And I have never been less than vocal about the fact that I think that "Donnie Darko" is one of the great films of the past decade and that it has caused a strong emotional reaction in me. Not many films can make that claim. And every time I rewatch the film, I think "Yes, that is a truly great film!". So, of course, I did get the R1-DVD (as there was neither a german nor a UK-version at the time) and listened to both commentaries. And, basically, totally disliked the way the director interpreted the film. Not only does he tell very clearly and in great detail what is happening and why (which robs the film of its WTF-factor and interesting questions), but he also has an explanation for it which I feel is total crap and in no way clever and/or intriguing.
Of course, he then got a bit more money and had the chance to make his point even clearer in the Director's Cut and while I am all for the scenes that have been put back into the film, it can't help but totally hate the new CGI stuff. It makes it a totally different film and not one I particularly like. Certainly not one I would have ranted and raved about as much as I have about the film I saw at the Fantasy Filmfest in 2001. And that's why I shall not listen to the commentary agan in the near future, I think.
It would appear that sometimes putting two good things together does not make a very good thing.
*Which reminds me, here is a tiny detail that I noticed in "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" (which the IMDb found unworthy of being published): When they are whizzing through the factory in the glass elevator, they pass a desk with an Oompa Loompa in drag, whom Willy greets with "Hi, Doris!". Said Doris has a sign in front of her stating her department to be "Taste Accounting". Which goes to prove that, contrary to popular belief, there is accounting for taste. I thought it funny.

The old question about an old song
Nov. 22nd, 2005 04:02 amRecently, while browsing through the music section at my local newsagent, I came across the latest copy of The Wire (Really cool mag for odd music. If you like that sort of stuff, I recommend you check it out!) and read an article on good cover-versions. There really seems to be a thing like that. They mentioned all kinds, including a string-quartet covering Lou Reed's "Metal Machine Music" and that really hilarious Laibach-cover of Queen's "One Vision" . And, as I was very, very happy to see, they also mentioned Coil's version of "Tainted Love".

Nov. 9th, 2005 11:01 pm1. I just cannot help wondering why such a massive number of people doing voiceover on reviews of and promotion for the new Cameron Crowe-flick "Elizabethtown" keep on pronouncing the title "Elithabethtown" (actually, the sound they make where the "z" should be is very close to the welsh "dd" (a little softer than "th")).
2. When I saw kid606, I could not stop myself from asking him whether that story was true that he bought his first equipment from the insurance money he got after a firework blew off the tip of his finger. It was, he did show his plastic index finger to me.
Whereupon I just had to utter the inane line: "Well, I suppose it's good for scratching."
He answered: "Yes, but it's shit for playing guitar."
Then I remembered that he actually came from a heavy metal as opposed to a techno-background and felt a total idiot. 8-(
Concert was great, though.

I shall stop reading the LJs of those that I know in advance will piss me off.

Feb. 20th, 2005 05:16 pm Classic songs about peace, love and harmony are great (albeit broodingly reimagined), but alongside staunch anti-war tracks with a blatant political agenda, they lose some of their charm.
http://www.pluggedinonline.com/music/music/A0002007.cfm
Sorry, I missed something here, I think. So, do I get this correctly? Being for "peace, love and harmony" is good, but being against shooting, bombing and torturing the shit out of people is bad?
Am I the only one that senses the slightest bit of a contraduction here?

Okay, normalerweise würde ich ja noch nicht mal zugeben, daß ich mir solch eine Publikation überhaupt länger als eine Sekunde anschaue, oder überhaupt einen Gedanken an das Thema verschwenden, aber hier tu' ich das doch mal, weil mich das alles SO aufregt.
Momentan bin ich ja unweit von München und daher hatte ich heute die Gelegenheit, in meinem Lieblingscafe einen Blick auf die BILD München zu werfen. Ich würde an dieser Stelle die Schlagzeilen gerne kurz zitieren (räusper):
"Der perverse Mosi-Mörder: Er ist Asylant aus dem Irak. Sie guckten 3 Stunden lang Porno-Filme. Er verlangte 2000 Euro für Sex. Dann strangulierte er Mosi von hinten." (Titelseite)
Okay, also dröseln wir das mal auseinander und nehmen wir uns der unterschwelligen Botschaften an: Erstmal ist der Typ aus dem Irak. Das heißt ja wohl schonmal, daß er auf jeden Fall ein Terrorist ist. Ein Asylant, also ist er nicht nur asozial, nein, er lebt auch noch vom Geld der Rechtschaffenden.
Und schaut sich drei Stunden lang Pornofilme an. Schwule Pornofilme, das woll'n wir mal nicht vergessen, weil das nackte Mädchen, das auf derselben Seite ist, dient ja der normalen, der gesunden Lustbefriedigung. (Das ist mal ein Bild, man stelle sich das vor, diese Bildtitelseite, klebrig vom Sperma eines Stammlesers).
Dann verlangt dieser schwule, asoziale, potentiell terroristische, Pornos schauende Typ auch noch 2000 Euro für seine Dienste. Weil der Mosi, der hätte ihm das Geld ja sicher nicht angeboten, nein, dieser dreckige Ausländer hat es verlangt!
Und letztlich, und dieses Detail sagt ja wohl alles: Er hat den Mosi von hinten erwürgt. Ehrlos und pervers.
"Auf diesem Sofa hat er mit seinem Mörder masturbiert" (Seite 3, mit Bild eines lächelnden Moshammers vor einer Sitzgarnitur) und dann auf der nächsten Seite ein wackerer Polizist mit dem kleinen Knuddelhund. Schlagzeile "Das ist Daisys neues Herrchen." Damit man auch mal zu sehen bekommt, wie die Guten heutzutage aussehen.
Wieviele Vorurteile kann man eigentlich innerhalb von ein paar Sätzen bedienen? Wie eklatant kann man Meinungsmache betreiben?
Was mich auch fasziniert, ist die Frage, was für ein Bild der durchschnittliche Bildleser wohl vom "Mosi" hat. Einerseits wird da ja sicher der Gedanke umgehen "Joa, ich hab's ja scho' immer g'wusst, der Typ is net normoal." mit dem Hintersinn "Wenn man sowoas mocht, denn passiert ein'm eben sowoas. Sölbst schuld.". Ich weiß, daß das zynisch ist, aber angesichts der Detailverliebtheit des Artikels finde ich die Schlussfolgerung naheliegend. Aber andererseits wird auch immer betont, wie sehr alle Leute ihn geliebt haben und was für ein guter Mensch er doch war. Wie fügt sich sowas zu einem kohärenten Bild zusammen?

Einerseits wird da ja sicher der Gedanke umgehen "Joa, ich hab's ja scho' immer g'wusst, der Typ is net normoal." mit dem Hintersinn "Wenn man sowoas mocht, denn passiert ein'm eben sowoas. Sölbst schuld.". Ich weiß, daß das zynisch ist, aber angesichts der Detailverliebtheit des Artikels finde ich die Schlussfolgerung naheliegend. Aber andererseits wird auch immer betont, wie sehr alle Leute ihn geliebt haben und was für ein guter Mensch er doch war. Wie fügt sich sowas zu einem kohärenten Bild zusammen?
