  • I saw the running man, which I swore up and down that I wouldn’t see because I’m so sick of remakes. But my best friend who is a big movie geek, swore up and down about how good it was. When looking for movies, I saw it and kept looking, but found nothing else, so I was like “alright, fuck it”. Omg I’m glad I did! It looked and sounded amazing on my TV. The story, the message, the action was all top notch, and my kid absolutely loved it as well. Maybe a LITTLE inappropriate for an 11 year old but the violence wasn’t really any worse than marvel movies, and I’m not naive enough to think he hasn’t heard swear words before. The concept of a corporation being more powerful or equal to the government is something he’s going to learn sooner or later. And that ratings/money/power are more important than any amount of lives is a powerful thing to understand early on.

    He’s a smart kid and watched it as a movie and I didn’t hammer the message or anything but we discussed it afterwards and I think he got it pretty well. I highly recommend this movie and will actually be buying it to support the art/message. Absolutely great movie.







  • It’s quite possible you’ve done it tho.im 41 and never thought about it until I heard about it. My CPU usually resets and just plays jenny talking to Forrest Gump on the bus. “Are you stupid or somethin?” And then I come back to reality and can function again, and respond in a manner that isn’t offensive. If my brain didn’t reset, it would respond with low RAM and i would invariably say something incredibly offensive.
