part 353 whalers on the moon

We've been here over a year now! I can hardly believe it! Dreamwidth's been pretty good, I'd say, with almost no downtime to speak of and all that! Anyway... how is your spring going? Or I guess it's almost summer, isn't it? Hopefully it's been well! I've been catching up on work and new movies, all very exciting stuff, I'm sure.

Enjoy part 353!

I can think of 2...

I managed to watch all of Fight Club and I grudgingly liked some parts of it but I HATED the alpha male bullshit and idea that men have been castrated by modern society(women) and the world would be be a better place if REAL MEN were in charge. It wasnt the directors intent but its there and I wouldnt watch the movie again because of it

Durarara had a bunch of things that I was able to look past from episode 2, but the final straw was when it turned out that *spoiler* Shinra knew where Celtys head was the whole time but didnt tell her. Dropped it after that

Its very prevalent and normally I can ignore it but Fight Club was just so... pretentious about it I cant

Its like an edgy 16 year old telling his friends in an excited lecture about how awesome it would be if we went back to fighting all the time and men were in charge, only in movie form
