Turkey Monkey Bacon= I have come to the realization that I am in fact a squirrel. Sorry Nick Creamer and Hideaki Anno, it’s nothing personal.
I REPEAT. I have never been disingenuous. I have never been disgraceful. I have never been judgmental. I have never been in fact mischievous. I have never been intentionally passive aggressive.
Is me losing a job and having it end on a bad note not enough suffering for you people? Or the fact that I won’t in any way be able to get another one safely? Forget about college!
Didn’t know a professional psychiatrist could kick you out of their establishment based on a lie, that’s nice! Thanks for being disingenuous, vague, cryptic, passive aggressive, utterly irresponsible, and exhibiting malpractice! Afraid of me my ass, the fucker pities me to no end. I’M THE ONE WHO IS AFRAID. How cruel can you miscreants be! Actually consider the after effects of what you’re doing.
Hirokazu Koreeda
I repeat, ALL HAIL SHIN ULTRAMAN!
I’ve now learned that storytelling is more than just idealized distortions, they’re also overzealous judgmental simplifications.
How many years of resistance and you holding my future back will it take for you to finally realize that you are absolutely one hundred percent mistaken about my true identity?!
Get down on your hands and knees and apologize this very instant, and do it properly. JUST AS I HAD DONE FOR YOU AT UBC NEARLY 3 YEARS AGO.
Derive anthropomorphic(OVP) subtext from this cretins, GO FUCKING DIE.
Storytelling does indeed make me feel loved, admired, appreciated, and wanted!!! And that includes you too Anno! YOU LOSE G-FANS.
“More often than not, the villains wants to change things, and the hero wants to prevent change from taking place.”
“It is possible to have courage and not be a hero- the villain often has as much courage as the hero. In fact, what looks like courage may be merely compulsion. Differentiating between the two is how we distinguish the hero from the villain.”
“As long as they are simply RESPONDING to others, heroes and heroines are pushed from behind; once they seize control of their destiny, however, they have opened the door to the possibility of heroic behavior.”
“Ultimately, as so many memorable popular films demonstrate, death of the soul, self, or consciousness, is not the worst thing that can happen. In fact, as many legendary public idols demonstrate, sometimes death can be a good career move.”
“Plato wanted to banish storytellers because they told lies. Storytellers practice the art of deception in much the same way that magicians do: because it’s fascinating. When we watch magicians perform, we expect we are entertained by deception, but for deception to be entertaining, certain principles must be followed. We don’t mind being outsmarted by a film’s creators, but we do not like to feel cheated – the creators must play fair. Things may not be what they seem, BUT WE MUST BE ABLE TO SEE IT.”
“Most films demonstrate the ancient but seldom-admitted principle of entertainment that goes back as far as the days when the Romans enjoyed their afternoons at the Coliseum: we take our pleasure from torturing our characters. What feels like desertion, however, is sometimes a necessary stage in our – and therefore the hero’s- development.”
“An interesting story is one in which we go through a constant process of discovery. Of what? In a great many memorable films: the truth. It is not as important for the filmmaker to reveal the truth as for the audience to discover it. Nor is it absolutely necessary for the characters in the story to be the ones making the discovery. The audience alone learns its significance, but that is enough. Filmmakers are often tempted to tell the audience things. Far more powerful is letting the audience discover them.”
“A dramatic film spins inward, towards its own center, centripetally, inviting the audience to forget what they know about the real world in order to enter the make-believe world created by the filmmakers.”
“Documentaries have an obligation to tell the truth about the real person, event, or issue- or to at least present both sides (as if there were only two sides). Drama, however, is concerned with an inner truth, and seldom worries about the “other” side of the story. If it did, we would realized how often one person’s comedy is another person’s tragedy.”
“Wherever the light shines the brightest, it creates the darkest shadows. It is often not the brightness that makes characters interesting, but rather the darkness.”
“Films aspire to the condition of poetry – saying as much as possible with as few elements as possible.”
Ya know, you aren’t quite immoral. You aren’t quite irresponsible. You aren’t quite hostile. And you aren’t quite mendacious. But you are disrespectful, judgmental, facetious, smarmy, mischievous, and disingenuous.
You implore me to say WE GOTTA STAND UP TO THE EXPERTS!
Well I guess that my catch-22 dilemma is that it hasn’t quite grown on me that storytelling, AS WITH ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING, is a love/hate relationship at its quintessential core.
All hail idioms.
You all have total autonomy whilst I’m left to seemingly/apparently squabble over my own obsessions and quirks. All the while with no power to make a difference whatsoever and no legal or moral options open to this day, after four and a half years! HURRAY!!!
I know what I’m not cut out for. Do you know what you’re not cut out for?!
I DON'T WANT TO DIE. ANNO HELP ME!!!
“Endings must be happy for the audience, but not necessarily for the characters. More often than not, the central characters in the film have gone through such trauma, loss, pain, sacrifice, and suffering that calling the final state “happy” would be a bitter, maddeningly insensitive joke. They have SURVIVED, but no person should envy them. What is required for the ending of a film is not happiness; it is justice.”
WITNESS TO ANIMAL CRUELTY. (I wonder why? Why can't I goddamn prove it?!)
“A fanatic is someone engaged in the unprincipled pursuit of a principle. Fanatics will stop at nothing to reach their goal, no matter who they hurt along the way. In movies in particular, a character’s fanaticism can help make them fascinating. Heroes may SEEM at times to be fanatics, but it is their adherence to a higher principle that distinguishes them from villains.”
“Fear is a terrific motivator in life and can cause people to do all kinds of things they wouldn’t otherwise do. But it’s a totally inadequate motivator in film. The hero may be afraid, but he never lets that fear stop him from doing what he must do. Fear is a weakness that either requires someone else to do the job or is a kind of fatal flaw.”
“When the feelings of the filmmakers, the feelings of the characters, and the feelings of the audience come together, there is the opportunity for greatness.”
“When screenwriters, directors, producers, actors, critics, and audiences speak about “truth,” or “reality,” in films, they are not referring so much to the exterior world, where truth or falsity can be tested; they are talking about a kind of artistic truth, which is difficult to define and even harder to prove.”
“It is widely recognized that the protagonist in comedy is almost invariably a “fish out of water,” a “stranger in a strange land” - somebody who doesn’t really belong. What is less often recognized is that the protagonist in TRAGEDIES is also usually a person who doesn’t belong. The difference is that, in comedy, the stranger is usually trying to get INTO the strange land, whereas in tragedy he’s trying to get out. In almost all memorable stories, you could say of the hero, “HE DIDN’T REALLY BELONG.” A character who does belong, who is NOT a fish out of water, is not likely to be very interesting.”
“Foils are poised around the hero like spokes in a wheel. They are necessary to support the force and momentum of the story, but the center of gravity and power needs to lie at the center, in the person whose story it is. Foil characters exist to fulfill a particular need of the story, which is usually to reveal something, not about the foil, but about the central character.”
If the foreshadowing tips the audience off as to EXACTLY what’s going to happen and the audience knows early in the film, the sense of discovery that is so important to audience satisfaction will be lost. If, on the hand, the audience knows SOMETHING is going to happen, but doesn’t know exactly what it is, the result is an increase in tension, which is always desirable. We might notice that demonstrating foreshadowing is often accomplished through something other than words.”
“Genres are to film what ethnicity is to restaurants- we feel in the mood for a war film, comedy or romance the same way we feel in the mood for Chinese, Italian, or Mexican food. Categorizing films according to genres also helps critics and audiences decide what they DON’T want to see. Just as some people never consume Mexican or Chinese food, some people never consume a horror film, science fiction, war film, or romance. As the separate entries in this book for various genres demonstrate, each genre defines itself by an implicit contract with its audience. The story will contain familiar ingredients served up in a certain order and a certain way. We hope at the same time to experience something new, but we don’t want it to be TOO new. From an artistic standpoint, genres can be constricting precisely because of the implicit contract between filmmaker and audience. A contract, by definition, requires you to act in a predictable manner; but predictability is the enemy of art. The trick with genre films is to be predictable, but in some way unpredictable as well. Unless a genre film TRANSCENDS its conventions, its potential audience will be limited.”
“What age gives to youth is wisdom and experience; what youth gives to age is energy and hope. In movies where the central character is accompanied by a “sidekick,” the main character provides strength and ability, while the side character provides laughs and sometimes common sense.”
“Audiences have an implicit picture in their mind before they see a film, and when it is finished, what was on screen had better match at least part of that image or they will feel cheated. And yet, audiences also want to be surprised, want to make discoveries, and want to feel that something in the film is new. Only a hack settles for giving people ONLY what they want. But only a fool fails to be aware of what that is. Knowing what the audience’s expectations are and how to simultaneously give that to them but also surprise them is an attribute of genius.”
“Happiness has nothing to do with be a hero. The need for happiness is, in fact, one of the things the hero has TRANSCENDED. Heroes are usually the most honorable of people, but they are seldom the most successful of the happiest. Success is something the hero no longer aspires to, and happiness is something the hero is no longer concerned with, OR PERHAPS EVEN CAPABLE OF.”
“While heroes do not turn people into villains, villains turn people into heroes – it is the hero’s REACTION to the villain that makes him a hero, and when the villain disappears, there is nothing left to be heroic about. The hero is not proactive; he is REACTIVE.”
You’re absolutely obliterating, decimating, squandering, and appropriating my faith in the only two subject matters I am foolhardy about scantily being committed to. Or maybe this vertigo is just me meekly trying to consolidate power trip whilst squabbling ever on. YOU DECIDE FOR ME I GUESS. FAREWELL BODYBUILDING AND STORYTELLING, MAY YOUR SCOLDING AND BERATING OF SOLE ME MAKE AN IRREVERENT MARK IN THE HISTORY BOOKS FOR AUTHORS AND OTHERS. (And please oh please don’t let J.K. Rowling make a series based off of it! No jojo’s added to that order either!)
It directly contradicts my personality to do what you want me to do. I...WILL...NOT...DO IT. Find some other avenue/approach for your revenge please. AS I HAVE SAID MANY A TIMES BEFORE, THIS IS A CATCH 22 DILEMMA/UNEQUIVOCAL FALLACY ON YOUR PART THAT I CANNOT AND WILL NOT EVEN ATTEMPT TO TRY AND REASON WITH.
You are redundant, repugnant, ostentatious, sketchy, and a scoundrel.
That's it I'm done with all of this. Hell, I don't even know what I mean by that but screw it I'll say it anyways. I accept my punishment. I'm not afraid anymore. I will overcome my past, personality, insecurities, and introverted nature once and for all. TOMORROW AND FOR THAT MATTER EVERY WEEK DAY THAT'S NOT A HOLIDAY FROM 5:30 PM TO 7:00 PM IN WEDGEFIELD, FL, FUCKING BRING IT DISINGENUOUS DUNCES. I'LL TAKE ON YOUR FULLY FURY FRONT AND CENTER, NO HOLDS BARRED.
I beseech you innocuous/intrepid/gluttonous hooligans to insinuate verbatim my fraudulent/forlorn sins and to trudge me to utter deliverance by way of the quintessential/paramount/predominant discomfiture, obloquy, vilification, and condemnation/humiliation. BRING IT ON DISINGENUOUS AND SHREWD DUNCES AND SMARMY/CRAFTY DIPSHITS! Make no mistake, you’ll never forthright and outright understand my despondent and quirky predilections, sensibilities, reverence, and insipid introversion.
I REITERATE AND ACCEPT NOW THAT EVANGELION IS SPECIAL TO ME SOLE BECAUSE OF MY INTERPRETATION/PERCEPTION OF MY PAST AND PERSONALITY AND ALSO BECAUSE IT IS FAR EASIER FOR ME TO “EXPERIENCE” THAN MOST OTHER ANIME, OR CINEMA OVERALL FOR THAT MATTER. I DON’T SEE MYSELF AS BETTER THAN OTHER PEOPLE IN ANY WAY, IN FACT I HAVE A LIFE-LONG INFERIORITY COMPLEX. I DON’T HONESTLY BELIEVE ANYMORE THAT I CAN MAKE IT AS A FILMMAKER OR ARTIST OF ANY KIND, ESPECIALLY WITH THE THE FIELD IN GENERAL HAVING AN ASTOUNDING NINETY-EIGHT PERCENT FAILURE RATE OUT THE GATE. I MERELY HAVE A PROVERBIAL AND FINNICKY ADDICTION TO A SEMI-RELIGION AND NOTHING MORE. I WILL OVERCOME ALL THIS BY FINAGLING MY DROWSY/DEPLORABLE SELF WITH THE HELP OF YOUR COLLECTIVE (AS WELL AS HOPEFULLY TO BE SHIN EVA’S) FINESSE, ESCAPADE, AND SAVIOR FARE. THANK YOU TRULY FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE FOR ME,
YOURS TRULY, PHILLIPE PHILIPINO (HA)ITIANO JALAPENO ERWIN KONIG/ROMMEL MEISTER, AKA ASS BURGERED HIKIKOMORI/FORMER GOODWILL PROCESSOR, MERCHANDISER AND STALKER, PHILLIP ANDREW UPCHURCH.
P.S. I will NOT, I REPEAT NOT ever be making a formal or legitimate review for Evangelion 3.0 + 1.0 (or a legible or bona fide one for that matter either). I have full-blown consternation and have become disillusioned, disenchanted, and enlightened/objective vantage pointed with the hypocrisy and contradictions of the murky water/dubious/scathing/scintillating/coruscating idolized conundrums known as artistic critical analysis, storytelling journalism, and most of all hobbyist, dilettante, and amateur reviews. It’s all a whole dump load of sketchy and perfunctory crock.
These feeble-minded and inconspicuous dibble dabbles/stumpers are deplorable, two-faced, damn near belligerent/ornery, and above all else anti-immaculate and practically speaking withering for the sanguine mind or sanctity of the soul/essence of the soul. I will therefore never whimsically browse for, read, analyze, create, objectify, idolize, immortalize, or respond to/debate/trifle with/assuage myself by making a feeble metaphorical masturbation attempt to therein interact with strangers on the insipid, insidious, and creepy anti-insightful/abstract/aloof topics of artistry and storytelling from here on out, PERIOD. I whimper at the mere notion of it all.
NEVER AGAIN WILL I WITHER IN THE WIND OF MY OWN PROBABLE MENTAL ILLNESSES, BECOME TRITE DUE TO OUTSIDE UNDUE INFLUENCE, UNDERMINE MY OWN ORIGINALITY, TRUCULENCY, AND CONTIGUOUSNESS, OR LASTLY ENSLAVE MYSELF TO/ CIRCUMSCRIBE MY IDENTITY TO BEING A BLACK SHEEP, DICKWAD, VAGABOND, OR ROGUE DASTARD TIL THE END OF MY DAYS. YOU WILL NEVER HEAR FROM ME ON MAL OR ANY ANIME SITE OR GROUP EVER AGAIN, FAREWELL.
I hereby proclaim and vicariously assert this conniving conundrum to be an intricate trap set up by the chuuni/vicious/opprobrious/nocuous/slanderous Harkonnens who libel at every cunning and corrupt/culpable turn on the pan-fried path to utter oblivion. Have you no forthright, blatant, conciliatory, or propitiatory remorse?! NOW DON’T YOU BE RUEFUL OR WISTFUL!
Tear me apart Oscars, tear me apart limb from limb. Be the crucifixion I’ve always ostensibly needed.
I DO THIS BECAUSE I LIKE TO SOUND COMPLICATED.
Parasite > Shoplifters
Joker > Once Upon A Time In Hollywood
PARASITE IS NOW MY ALL TIME FAVORITE ASIATIC LIVE ACTION FILM OF ALL TIME, EVEN OUTDOING HIROKAZU KORE-EDA, AKIRA KUROSAWA, LEE CHANG-DONG, ISHIRO HONDA’S GOJIRA, SANSHO THE BAILIFF, THE BURMESE HARP, SHUNJI IWAI, THE HUMAN CONDITION TRILOGY, AND EVEN HIDEAKI ANNO, WELL DONE!!!
Snub/Slight/Affront/Spurn/Rebuff
The shame, disgrace, trepidation, tribulation, awkwardness, anxiety, and social anxiety is overwhelming yet the chance of freedom is so close! HELP ME!!! MAKE ME FURIOUS! GET THE STUPID WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT!!! THIS ISN’T NEARLY ENOUGH TO DO ME IN FOR GOOD!
That’s it, I’m done writing. I don’t want to write anything ever again. Not a review, not a comment, not a forum post, not about myself, nothing analytical, nothing formal, nothing carefree, not a recommendation, no comparisons, no friendly behavior, no chitchat, nothing relevant, nothing boastful or self serving, nothing spiteful, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. END OF STORY.
You go out of your way to make damn near everything my business when it is absolutely nothing of, and shouldn’t be, the sort. (I wonder why…)
I applaud, admire, idolize, and revere everything that I don’t understand for shit. (I wonder why...)
I AM READY FOR YOU. (Extermination attempt miserably failed. I clearly have no idea how to do this.)
Okay I take it back, you are immoral and irresponsible, big time.
No...sorry bud=nope, fuck you butt ugly dickhead, that’s not the way this works you squeamish scoundrel, now go squirm off like the little shithead masturbator you know you are!
EVERYWHERE FEELS LIKE A PRISON.
HOW DO YOU EXPECT ME TO EVER GO OUTSIDE AGAIN AFTER ALL THIS?
You don’t even have a smidgen of respect or recognition for my complications, conditions, compromises, conundrums, or dilemmas do you? Let alone my meek/forlorn long term aspirations and semi-commitments.
Ya know, you may like to think you’re being self-critical and self-analytical but in reality you’re just being overtly judgmental towards others around you no holds barred, you’re in essence subverting the just order of things.
I...AM...INNOCENT! IT WAS AN ACCIDENT! PLEASE HEAR ME OUT FOR ONCE! I was gullible, naive, hotheaded, hasty, audacious, addicted, obsessed, bigoted, and foolhardy. There is nothing more to it than that! I’d rather kill myself than go through with your unwarranted/inequitable revenge! Please forgive me! I don’t want to do something immoral, illegal, or sketchy in regards to my personality.
I don't want to die and I don't want to try and kill anyone. PLEASE MAKE IT STOP IMMEDIATELY.
It’s a non-starter if you think of my life as storytelling personified. That’s just pandering to the vengeful masses of pseudo-intellectual whores/shame-mongers. My life is reality through and through god damn you!
So you ARE an incandescent/overzealous stopgap measure to my salvation and ultimate freedom from the past!
How did it ever come to this?
I will hate all of you for the rest of my life.
AS IF YOU ACTUALLY FUCKING UNDERSTAND ME. AAAAAAASSSS IF!
How do you live? > Uru in Blue
WHY CAN’T I SAVE JAMIE!!!
What will be a better birthday present for me in 2020? Khara’s Shin Eva or Legendary’s Dune Part I? Who is a better filmmaker, Denis Villeneuve or Hideaki Anno? Either way I won’t let you stop me from having a life changing theater experience for both of them. YOU HEAR ME! THIS WILL END BEFORE DECEMBER 2020!!! MARK MY WORDS YOU INCREDULOUS MONSTERS! THESE TWO FILMS CAN CHANGE MY LIFE AND WILL!!!
There is that plain spoken and inner childish enough/honest for you bastards?
And millions of hooligans chuckled at the incredulity and hypocrisy of it all.
Do not be afraid to be afraid and dying for art’s sake, well ain’t that the quintessential constitutional punchline! And yes I look forward to more in life than just gaining internet points in ridiculous and misfortunate fandoms!
Living off of twenty dollars a week is inspiring.
I guess that my quarter century party isn’t long over, it’s just begun! And it’s an eclectic hodge-podge of a denouement to say the least! BRING ON THE NIHILISTIC FURY, NARCISSISM, AND DISINGENUOUS CHUUNI BEHAVIOR!
The infernal fuck is wrong with you people? This isn’t a competition, my future is on the line here ya know. And by future I don’t mean any dreams of grandeur or delusional illusions, I mean ANY future worthy of having.
Virtually eleven months of voice recording! From 3/19-19 to 2/25-20! And that’s minus possible retakes!
This is unheard of in the history of anime film production! Please everyone on MAL look forward to what team Eva has to offer the world and japan in 2020! I seek salvation and I truly believe that Shin Eva can truly deliver that, not just for me but for others who view the world/feel about the world in a similar fashion.
You know the objective vantage point of the situation and yet you’re ignoring it and acting like a child anyway.
My four and a half year long one-sided dilemma can’t be idiosyncratic, there must be others who have gone through this before. It’s impossible for there not to be. I MUST BE RIGHT!
All those years of sincere effort and hard work and in the end not a single one of you even listened to me to hear me out, not even for a single moment. FUCK ALL OF YOU. MAY ALL OF YOU BE DAMNED FOR ETERNITY.
Stop fretting/whining about the subduing what if’s and just do it eh? (Says an Anonymous Hypothetical Counselor for nike back in 2018.) Thanks, much appreciated.
Wanting to sole understand myself better and purely to learn more about the world of storytelling defies all moral decency and social norms apparently.
All hail the ultimate social justice warriors listed below.
