Well, I've done it again. Its 4:25... I am suppose to be awake in two and a half hours to go to clinic appointment. Guess Mike will not be going to bed, due to his inability to wake up after short periods of sleep. I ask myself, why did I not use “because” in the proceeding sentence. Instead I opted for “due.” I wrote because, and erased it. For some reason I recall elementary school teachers being mad anytime because was used in a sentence in the manner it was intended for. Maybe they were tired of it. Three sentences ago, I erased a “then” which had been in front of a “erased.” Why did I do that? If I could answer that question, would I bother asking? Maybe it was rhetorical, maybe I have been awake since some time yesterday. I have been listening to all kinds of music tonight. Trying to find stuff I would like to mangle with my incredible inability to play guitar. I do believe Tears For Fears, Smashing Pumpkins, and Megadeth are very high on my “to do badly” list. Maybe I'll get around to some Duran Duran or Lost Prophets later. I mentioned I finished chapter zero.alpha of Courier Bold. Now I am writing stuff for myself, with writing technique eclipsed only by my indescribable knowledge of guitar. So now I must choose. The Benders, about my idiot friends in high school. Or Detroit Mech Squad, about the idiots in my head. I dunno. I like sushi. It makes me all warm inside. Buttery. Mmm fig nuts. Having finished watching Ladyhawke earlier tonight, I have come to numerous conclusions. I have no idea if they are right, but since I am in charge of this journal, I will assume I am correct, since if it was incorrect it is my fathers fault, who having provided half my genetic code, would be the person most likely to benefit from my incorrectness. Oh right, conclusions. Let me start off with the bad. My god the music is even worse then the rock and roll soundtrack from Legend. Maybe if Daft Punk had done it instead. Too bad there is not a classical score waiting around for Ladyhawke, like Ridley Scot's baby did... Ok I am not going to spend a lot of time on this aside but:
A. Tom Cruise shoulda been named Link, and Princess Lilly should have been Zelda. (Was it Mia Sara?) B. Link fill up you hearts, so you can charge your sword with power. C Gannon not as kool as the Prince of Darkness. D Dr. Franknfurter also not as kewl as the Prince of Darkness. E When adventuring, it is always advantageous to have a fairy ass fairy in your party. Or phoenix downs. F Boromir would have done well to have taken note of the above #E. G Legend of Zelda still has a rockn'er intro song in all its 8 bit glory then Legend. H If Jack/Link had gone to the ocean side at King Haggards castle, they could scored beaucoup unicorns.
Some of the fighting in Ladyhawke was also kinda iffy but, thats about it for complaints. Allow us to move into the positive zone. And of course number one is Michelle Phifer. Do I really even need to say anything else? I do? Fine. Rutger Hauer also damn kool, and very german. IMDB says I am wrong about that and he is dutch. However for the purposes of this argument, the Netherlands is right next to Germany, and since Canada is about 1 armored division and a Jeb Bush away from becoming states 51-54 I will continue on with my essay. I like Claymores. I like them a lot. I think every jurisdiction should have claymores. Big claymores. With big plaid tartans to go with them. How do you make a movie about a Scottish guy, being played by a French guy, while the Scottish guy is playing the Spanish guy, and he's carrying around a katana, while the Russian guy only gets Candy. Horses that trot funny are really kool. Especially when they are black and have furry legs like the Budweiser horses. Knight takes Bishop. I wish I could ride a horse around at Saint Marys. I would actually start going to church again. But only if they give me a claymore too. I would also like to point out that in any movie or tv show, it never pays to be a guard wearing a red shirt. Never. While I was watching Ladyhawke, I remember reading Kentarou Miura had style Berserk's protagonist Guts, after Rutger Hauer in Ladyhawke. I didn't see it at first. But by the end of the movie it was unmistakable. I will now detail the details as I think they should be detailed. Firstly, they both wear a lot of black. And a really big black cape. Black capes are officially bad ass, and get you bonus points when trying to enter Club Bad ass. Wesley didn't have the cape, but he did wear all black and a mask, and that was enough to make him a bad ass. Both have really big swords. Now yes... the dragon slayer is like 6 feet long a foot wide and 2 inches thick (Ok if any of you guys at skullknight start bitching at me about the “officially accepted measurements of the dragonslayer or Guts correct name, you will get no milk or cookies for Christmas.) But for a human sized sword, Navare's Claymore is goddamn big. Now as to Helmets. Gut's Band of the Hawks helmet is a spitting image of the Helmet Navare is sporting at the end of the movie. They also carry very large crossbows. Now Navare turns into a wolf at night time. Guts is constantly at odds with the “beast” part of his personality, that looks something like a wolf. And his helmet even changed to a wolf shape at one point. And then there is the never apart yet never together problem. True that Navare and Isabeau have it rough with the whole night and day thing. But Caska is there, but here mind is not. So in that sense, Guts only has the shell of the woman he loved, but not the woman. Now. I want to make a pirate movie. I can not take credit though. This was Dwayne's idea. See there are pirates. And they are sailing the seas in search of Starbucks... with net access. So they can pirate the Internet. IT would BE THE GREATEST MOVIE 3V4R!!!mpd
