i think i discovered how euphoria is like

Apr 01, 2007 07:23

i was in mcs yesterday checking out dvd's and happen to stumble on this pile of foreign artsy fartsy films. i didn't took notice at first. i was about to go home then but decided to just take a peek. to my surprise, second on the pile was a copy of science of sleep! i wanted to scream and jump up and down! that's probably how euphoria feels like. i can die now. i also bought a copy of solo con tu pareja, which is apparently alfonso cuaron's breakthrough film before y tu mama tambien, and a copy of pedro almodovar's volver. wait...... ok i can die now.

it's funny how descriptions on the back of pirated dvd's (what do you expect) sometimes don't make sense. this is what's written for science of sleep, as is:

White-collar drudge by day.Genius by night-and any other time likable. clever Stepjane (Gael Garcia Bernal) dreams. Because it's on his magic carpet of dreams where stephane headlines stephane TV,builds a mighty cut-and-paste wonderland.pens a bestseller and sweeps the lovely girl next door off her feet and into his arms if only he could make his dreams(at least the last one)come true!

Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the spotless Mind) writes and firects this quirky quixotic, constantly inventive romantic fantasy of imagination vs. Logic, dreams vs. Reality.Wake up and smell the possibilities. The science of sleep is a movie to amaze, dare and delight you...and to whisper to the dreamer within.

not to forget the subtitles. on some pirated dvd's they are sometimes funnier than the movie itself. take for example the polar express:

dialogue: merry christmas!
subtitle: christmas festival happiness

and also hannibal rising:

dialogue: he knows something
subtitle: soybean cake something

dialogue: good morning
subtitle: good afternoon

there's this sort of meme on the science of sleep website called what do you dream? it asks you multiple choice questions and somewhat interprets from there. mine says:

CREATIVE SAVANT
You are most unusual. You don't think like everyone else, and there's no reason you should. You have a rich fantasy life with lots of ideas and, yes, even visions cascading through your mind. Reality doesn't impede your progress, it simply keeps it on track. If you've found a way to channel your creativity, most people probably think you're brilliant. If, however, you're finding it difficult to distinguish between your fantasy life and real life for say - oh, 23 out of 24 hours - you might want to consider therapy or a career as a filmmaker.

i can't download shit on aurgasms cause they mostly use sendspace and sendspace always says Sorry, the free service in your location is too busy. i don't want to upgrade to sendspace max because you have to pay for it. how can life ever be fun if you don't get stuff for free? woe is me!!! huhuhu

and why do they always change http to hxxp? i don't get the point.
