The Joy of Movie Watching - Afterwards

I just watched the movie "Mary and Max" and I LOVED IT!
It's not my automatic new favorite movie, but it's definitely in my tops list.
The style is so cool, and the story is so well thought out and funny and touching and all.  The ending ALMOST made me cry, and that is powerful.  You should totally check it out. It is a really beautiful movie.  Don't be like me, I was hesitant to see it because it is an animated movie.  I thought it was for kids, but it's definitely not.  The movie deals with dark themes such as depression, obesity, suicide, and mental disorders.  SO COOL!!  (Jake, if you read this you should watch it if you haven't already. and we can have a silly little discussion!)

here's the trailer!



Speaking of movies, did I tell you that my movie gaydar is amazingly well tuned?  It even works with animated movies! CRAZY!  While watching "Mary and Max" there was this character, and the second I saw him I was like 'he's gay' AND HE WAS! Same thing happened in Mulholland Dr., Sunshine Cleaning, and tons of other movies that I can't even list here.  It always freaks me out.  but oh well.

Anyway, I hope to dream with "Mary and Max" tonight.  I know this is pathetic but five minutes after watching it I went on ebay and bought it.  I also bought "La Vie en Rose."  I was going to buy "A Very Long Engagement,"  But I'll do that later.  It feels weird buying three things at once.  It's funny,  al those three films were foreign.  Most foreign films I have seen were amazing.  "Amelie," which happens to be my favorite film, is foreign!  haha.

ok, good night now.  Thanks for

WAIT!  I forgot.  After watching the movie, I also read the reviews on Netflix, and there were these dumbasshats who were giving it one star because "it was not appropriate for children." Well, dipshit,  You should read the description and other reviews first.  "Mary and Max"  being a foreign film that premiered at the Sundance FF, and was not really distributed in America, it is obviously not rated by the MPAA, which stands for the Motion Picture Association of AMERICA! Well, there was alos this asshole who said that the movie was not rated by the MPAA because the filmmakers were trying to hide it all so that they could destroy kid's brains.  I WANTED TO PUNCH HIM IN THE KNEE AND BEND IT THE OTHER WAY!!  He was dumb and ignorant and then I was like "HGHKJALMVO;AS~!!!!"  so pissed.

Ok.  That last paragraph was more like a rant.

Now I am going to bed.  Night y'all!
