Inspired simultaneously and erratically by the blog thoughts of both Stanley Lee and Ned Rorem.

Movies. Is taste an indicative Rorschach test?

Seung-Hui Cho gunned down 32 innocent people in 2007 at what is now-known as the Virginia Tech Massacre - prior to that, his seemingly-innocent obsession with Chan-Wook Park's "Oldboy" went unnoticed, in spite of his already-psychotic tendencies.

As Mikey loves to point out, "My Sassy Girl" in perspective is much more of a horror film than a chick flick, per se - influencing thousands of Korean girls to further glorify the self-centered ignorance of an entire culture.

Or how about "Serendipity." An entire movie glorifying the phenomenon of emotional cheating, disguising the psychotic nature of the female obsession with chance - an engaged girl leaves her wedding at the altar (cliche enough) to pursue the surely-tangible signs of fate from a telephone number written on a dirty five dollar bill. Vomit in my anus. You have a girl obsessed with this movie? Chances are she's a dirty whore.

I like Rambo, Aliens, and Pulp Fiction. I gladly welcome any analysis.
