also yeah at no point was that series "believable"
Still haven't watched Apocalypto, think I'm kind of scared to...
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:28 (fourteen years ago)
it's really good.
― scott seward, Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:29 (fourteen years ago)
its really bad.
― erotic war comedy pollster (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:29 (fourteen years ago)
believable vs believable in the context of the series/movie

kinda wanna do a straight up comedy poll just so morbz can butt in every ten posts and say stuff like "i notice nobody voted for bernard le pew's acclaimed 1922 french short La Vie En Escargot." *groan* *rolls eyes on the internet even though we can't see his eyes*
that and the 4000 buster keaton youtubes.

bernard le pew's acclaimed 1922 french short La Vie En Escargot.
if this isn't about a snail that drives a car I am going to be wicked pissed

I liked Apocalyptico even though I didn't vote for it in this poll.

see all I ever on Apocalypto is "it's soooo awesome" and "it's sooooooo horrible" and I just don't know about rolling the dice on a 50/50 crappy movie.
I need to know more. Apocalypto-stands need to tell me more abt why this is good. If it's cheesy good, I'm not buyin' it.

― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:36 (fourteen years ago)
apocs is great, it's not cheesy at all, its a pretty intense lil movie
― A Little Princess btw (s1ocki), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:36 (fourteen years ago)
Apocalypto is basically an extended chase flick
I want to compare it to The Fugitive somehow but I would need to rewatch both to say something sensible/credible
― (thinks and smiles) (DJP), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:38 (fourteen years ago)
so it's like the naked prey, only less racially queasy, even tho mel gibson made it?

Vgirl how much do you enjoy the following: torture, fancy loincloths, running, jungles

What are the Mayan words for doghouse, henhouse and outhouse?
― Kiarostami bag (milo z), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:40 (fourteen years ago)
it's exciting!
― scott seward, Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:41 (fourteen years ago)
and scary!
xxxpost Shakey: personally, or in movies?
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:41 (fourteen years ago)
the epigram at the beginning of apocalypto makes it a gross movie imo
― http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1tAYmMjLdY (dayo), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:41 (fourteen years ago)
its better than The Rock in the jungle, but The Rock in the jungle was still awesome.
are there dudes looking like DLR/Yankee Rose album cover y/n
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:42 (fourteen years ago)
it's almost as good as Anaconda.
― scott seward, Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:42 (fourteen years ago)
I don't even remember the epigram at the beginning of Apocalypto
I don't really remember the torture tbh; I just remember high quality chasing
― (thinks and smiles) (DJP), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:42 (fourteen years ago)
hmmm...it seems I may need to roll the dice after all
Fugitive in the Jungle kind of sells me
it's a really good action movie. that's what i'll say. its non-stop.
is it a THRILL RIDE, scott?
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:43 (fourteen years ago)
The politics is basically big government = apocalyptic death cult

well that's kind of true if you think about it, just look at Congress

a great civilization does not die from without unless it has killed itself from within.
something like that. basically, the mayans deserved to get conquered by the europeans because look at how savage and brutal they were.

I mean, maybe if we didn't know as much as we know about mel gibson's worldview the epigram would have been more palatable
yeah but rilly its about running after this dude
― scott seward, Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:45 (fourteen years ago)
makes u think
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:45 (fourteen years ago)
i understand it's meant to be mel's medidation on how a godless society destroys itself. the best answer in his own case being 'white people show up' just makes it funny i guess (haven't seen it btw)
xps
― Critique of Pure Moods (goole), Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:47 (fourteen years ago)
i won't watch any new mel movies. don't want to pretend i don't know what a freak he is. and i kinda wish he would go away forever now. mayan movie got in under the wire. or something. i caught it on t.v.
― scott seward, Tuesday, 21 February 2012 21:48 (fourteen years ago)
the whole middle part is basically 'look at these disgusting savages (no, literally, they're disgusting savages)'

I got turned off on him once he started making bullshit like Maverick and What Women Want, I jumped off the Mel train a long time ago.

so it's like passion of the christ with more running

passion of the fugitive?

mostly. Mayans = Romans, Jesus = some schmuck from the wrong tribe
