avtar 3d last night. i don't know if it has any connection but after that i dreamt that i was supposed to have a drink wth Marilyn Manson. maybe i wanted some other effects than the jolly medusas. what pisses me off bout movies like avatar is that they cultivate this escapism, this phantasy that if you were bigger and blue-er your life would be so much interesting riding those flying creatures and gettin in touch with the sacred spirit of the forest. all beautiful, but if after watching the movie you leave thinking oh my life here on earth is so not interesting, and my human body is so not interesting, i wish i lived on pandora- i think this does you harm. of course you could take good things out of it, james cameron was aware of the eco trend and of the anti-colonialist trend as well. but with a budget of $200 million dollars and even more for marketing, i think there were far more interesting things to be done here on earth. and look- i just google pandora and the first article i find says- "The scenes were so startling and absorbing that the following morning, I had the peculiar sensation of wanting to return there, as if Pandora were real.".
so i didn't fall under the spell, didn't dream of pandora but of marilyn manson. lucky me.
"Hate today
"Hate today
No love for tomorrow
We're all stars now in the dope show
There's lots of pretty, pretty ones
Who want to get you high
But all the pretty, pretty ones
Will leave you low
And blow your mind"
(marilyn manson- dope show)
