Nostalgia for the Light/Meteors/Fandom
Aug. 13th, 2011 05:04 pmNostalgia for the Light is an interesting and worthwhile documentary but not a great one. I do not think Guzman's thesis hangs together. I didn't expect it to, though, but I did have a small hope it would all fit perfectly, and it didn't.
OTOH, expect something detailing Finn's lost years in the near future.

Well, that was the best meteor-shower party with a full moon and cloud cover that I've ever been to. Everyone knew we'd probably see about six meteors, so they showed up to have fun. And fun was had. Good cookies, too.
I still don't like sleeping in tents.

This is a trend that disturbs me. I think it's the second such "review" I've seen this week, and the anon factor makes it all the more off-putting. If you're going leave little love notes around with the express purpose of calling people out, have the courtesy to sign your moniker to it. Because you don't appear to really be interested in dialogue or effecting change, the way you're going about it now.

I really, really don't like resorting to childhood abuse/molestation as a means of explaining a villain, especially when there's no crumb-trail pointing in that direction. It feels like shifting the burden of action from the villain to the villain's parents, for a start. There are other issues I have with it, too, but that's definitely a factor for me.
