Thread: Rudy's TV Screen

Youtube FINALLY! I found it! For a while now, I've been trying to find the outro song on some of Onision's UhOhBro videos. It took so long because 1. the lyrics of the short spurt of sound are really distorted and hard to hear, 2. I haven't found any of his UhOhBro videos with this particular outro in a while, so, now, when I finally do want to check his credits and see what song he used, all the videos I click on have different outros. Found it and it is an obnoxious song but in typical pop fashion, I don't really care what the lyrics are and his voice is basically another instrument. ON THE FLOOR It helps that I also find the dancing in the vid extremely entertaining as well. TV Started watching a bit of Dollhouse. Not sure if I'm going to stick with it. I'm going to read up on it and see if the main girl gets out of being a Doll. Because otherwise...this is really dumb. No seriously. So, each episode, she gets turned into a different person and at the end of the episode, returns to a blank slate. How is this a show? On episode 3 and I feel no connection to this girl and I don't think I will unless she gets some solid sense of self. There's no potential for growth since she's wiped clean every time. Each episode it kinda feels like, Okay, well, there goes the development down the drain. Why did I waste time watching that? So, I'm seriously hoping that she gets to hang onto memories or escapes or something but then again kinda not because it feels like it'll be Nikita then. And I already watched that. Film Watched Dark Was the Night based on a recommendation from one of my blog readers. It definitely felt like a movie I'd enjoy but then again, it feels like one I've already seen before. I'm not sure which started which, me scrolling through Tumblr while watching making me miss key moments of suspense or if I started doing that because it had none to start with. It starts out with a fairly cool concept some backwoods country sheriff who's suffering from unresolved grief, wakes up in the morning to find mysterious, animalistic footprints burned into a 3 mile path through the town, where they stop dead in the middle of the woods. I seriously feel like I've seen something like this already and it doesn't help that the movie offers nothing new and just throws tropes at you. You get the steadfast denial of anything supernatural happening, despite a murder in the recent past that suggests something strange has happened here before. Also despite his own brushes and face to face encounters with this thing, it starts to make him look retarded with this insane desire to be a pillar of apparent sanity in the town. Then there's the subplot that's supposed to make us care about him, where one of his sons recently died and he's estranged from his wife. Yet, she's super sweet and reaches out to him constantly, so, it kinda makes him look like he blames her, yet it turns out he just blames himself? And the thing that solves it is him explaining this in short yet heavy handed self-analysis, near the climax, which kinda makes it look like all he needed to do was talk about his feelings. I mean, ffs, it's not like he's runninghiding from facing his feelings of blame since it's sort of hammered in anytime other people mention it and anytime he's alone and having visions of his son, that he feels overwhelmingly responsible for the boy's death. And it's not that he feels like his wife blames him for it because she makes it clear way long before that point that she wants to go through therapy and get better together. And it never comes up except in the awkward scenes where he tries not to talk to his wife, so, it feels like an afterthought. The creatures are a little interesting with the whole backstory they come up with and what they finally figure out happened and yet they break the rule and show us sloppy, glistening, tree-barkreptilian weremonster in full CGI. I hate movies feeling like they gotta show it to you in the end but end up copping out with Who Framed Roger Rabbit? treatment. The characters weren't anybody I cared about or rooted for, everything seeming bare bones and vaguely full of conflict. Definitely would not recommend or see again.
