I can think of what to write, so here is a movie review of sorts.

I recently purchased a video from Strand Releasing, "No Skin Off My Ass" written and directed by Bruce LaBruce (released 1994).

haha, that movie sounds great.
one that may tickle your fancy (if you haven't already seen it) is a movie called Waking Life. Artsy flick about life and humanity, really puts some interesting thoughts out, challenges them, then leaves you wondering.

John Mayer: Live, Uncensored, and Incredibly Gay - 20 stars

i had no clue

also, may I add you? you seem like a very cool person, someone I could get along with very well in conversation and the like.
take care and much love,
rob

wow, no shit?
i would be honored to know anyone who knew anyone that worked on that film. such a great flick.
and yes, the vector art was orgasmic.
i've actually had dreams like that before, so it just added to the non-reality realism.

I have seen Waking Life, twice (which is a big deal for me because I don't enjoy re-watching most movies). Great film. Have you seen Slacker, Linklater's first film? I enjoyed that too.

Thanks for the comment, and add away!

Butt Boys from the Moon deserves five stars. I was really upset when it lost the Oscar to Titanic. I don't think you appreciated the director's sense of irony. See, they were Butt Boys. But, they were from the Moon. Which is ironic.

I think you would get it if you saw the DVD with the director's commentary.

Kevin,

I see your point. But I didn't feel that the director was daring enough. He could have made the Butt Boys from Mars, Jupiter, or one of Jupiter's moons, such as Ganymede. But, no, he went the safe route and picked the moon. And everyone knows that Butt Boys can't survive in sub-zero temperatures. EVERYONE.

So, that's too much irony for me. I for one am glad it went to Titanic (whose original name, by the way, was "Butt Boy From The Sea").

Ganymede would have been perfect.

Ganymede himself was one of Zeus' butt boys. And the inspiration for a sexy little poem by Goethe, himself a renowned butt boy. Which poem was then made into Ganymed, one of the prettiest Lieder composed by Schubert.

Schubert, you ask?

Butt boy.

Alas, it is hard to find someone who hasn't made the turn to butt-boy these days. They used to be a unique rarity in the queer community.....now they're just cliché!
