So... I am going to watch Tideland. If I don't come back, I have apparently succumbed to the fate so many of its viewers suffered.

Which is apparently "death by brain bleach", or something like that.

I don't think I've ever seen Roeper so spittingly-angry about any film he's ever reviewed.

you'd think this was freaking Human Centipede. (don't google that if you don't already know, please e__e;;-)

HC is better reviewed on rottentomatoes than Tideland

it's not that big of a deal to some people? there are no shock images.

but reading the plot made me feel sick for ....a few days.

but that is because I get pissed on an ideological level, by torture porn.

man. I am gonna have some stuff to say, watching all of Tideland has the effect I think it's going to have.

.................I cannot believe the stuff that gets a pass, in this society, because of its genre label.

I have never, NEVER seen a movie so violently polarizing
biophilia

on Netflix the reviews literally go one star, one star, one star, five stars, two stare, etc.
Tiger Doughnut

..........well. It sounds like it could be a fascinating film/concept, if they did it right

well, I wholeheartedly love Terry Gilliam.
biophilia

so I trust him, in a sense, not to push the envelope for the sake of shocking.
biophilia

and what kinda makes me think/scares me is the fact that... I don't think I will find this disturbing at all.
biophilia

and I am not sure I want to know that I am THAT different from all of these morally outraged people.

hugely because "sexualization" of a child is a part of this.

I..... have seen the controversial parts, and don't agree with that description.
biophilia

at all.
Tiger Doughnut

....hmmm
Tiger Doughnut
14 years ago
............you know. I think i'm going to watch this.
biophilia
14 years ago
but I will reserve that for when I've seen all of it, and can pour my feelings out somewhere that allows for more characters.
Tiger Doughnut

and if i don't like it.... meh. I've done stupider and less-productive things before
biophilia

heh, see, that is how I feel.
biophilia

I do not mess around with stuff that I think will get under my skin, or bother me. But I am starting to suspect this is worth my time.

WELP don't say I didn't warn you. There are 557 Netflix reviews, and at least 100 so far are demands Gilliam pays their therapy bills
