RATS 4 LIFE

To an obnoxious acquaintace
"I'm going to memorize your name and throw my head away." OSCAR LEVANT

aloha,
i am a pessimist, this is a given.
saw TERMINATOR*SALVATION on cable last night.
i am NOT A FAN of a future where humans live like rats, maybe because i fear it will ultimately come true, THE ROAD WARRIOR,SOYLENT GREEN, RESIDENT EVIL* EXTINCTION (which i actually liked,BIG MILLA JAVOVICH FAN).
my FAVE SCI FI MOVIES-BLADE RUNNER & THE FIFTH ELEMENT, the original russian version of SOLARIS.. a grungy chaotic but survivable future.BLADE RUNNER seems esp. prophetic now with Climate Change and CORPORATE PERSONHOOD.

BTW rats,spiders and cockroaches can survive almost any nuclear radiation.THE ROAD ROACH? RAT RUNNER??

coming from nyc i see a future a lot like nyc or tokyo only more crowded and futile, this is based on 62 years of an emotionally scarred lifetime.the promises of a clean tidy RATIONAL FUTURE have not come true, instead we have Enron,Lehmman Bros and THE GREAT RECESSION huge huge sigh..

i remember a button from the 60s WE ARE ALL DOOMED, THE WORLD WILL NOT END TOMORROW!
amen to that.

  1. The original Solaris remains one of my very favorite movies. Seldom shown today.
