Raven in Green again..

nothings changed the senates still corrupt & the emporer remains insane, and every day, is a new strain of slaughter, supply lines are less protected, evil on all sides, eye can smell the death on your flesh--creeping in, trapped within the twisting fingers of fear, and all eye see is ewe, that face, those eyes, burning like leprosy, eye can see u there poisoning the air, prostituing Nationalism, and eye want to attack, to rip out your heart and lay you flat on your back, and vomit a world of agony and truth into your throbbing illness of memory...and hate guides our way, eye long for the icy slap of a belt across my back, for the acceptance of death and blind cave war, the giving sleep of depression, the sweet elucidation of savage meaningless agression, chiseled in the meaty forearms of Mother Jupiter and his slave disciples, in the harem tents--outside, just beyond the edges--eye ride, a cycoptic mare in the fires of imagination. feeding my disease, a river of plagues, eye need something to remind me I'm still sinning that pain is important, that wurdz matter, that healing is possible, that eye am not alone ...in this --guard the houses--triple the watch,--Maidens, dig up your sorcery --sirens, sharpen your rocks..ewe will eat my pain again. whatever you need unite messiah ME

Wow, look at me, doing 2 movie entries back to back.

I just finished the 4 hour journey that is the Extended version of The Two Towers. Why on Earth they would every release any other version is beyond me.

I cried, I cheered, I laughed. I really don't think I've been hit by a film on so many emotional levels. I mean....I rarely cry at films...and I was crying pretty much within the first hour...and much more by the end. Call me lame but Sam's speech about there being some good in the world and it be worth fighting for......that gets me every time! every time. And honestly do I need to decribe the lengths the went to the ensure the depth of the film?!?! Andy Serkis honestly the most unsung hero of the film. Every single performance is chilling! It doesn't feel like fiction. It feels like I'm watching filmed footage of old friends, the characters are just so real. I really feel that there is a big different between the 2 versions. The theaterical release is a bit slow, a bit cold, the extended version is epic and beautiful and has such a heartwrenching soul. This is a film worthy of the discription "Classic".

While of course some of the extra footage, although nice, is unnessicary, But those moments are few.

And honestly, now after seeing that (as well as pretty much all the behind the scenes footage) I have developed bothersomely strong infatuation with Viggo Mortensen. Oooo ...mmmm. Even though I know he can't be mine....I honestly wonder if I can be statified by any other man, because honestly, Viggo is the perfect man. He really is our truly great living Renasance man. And don't let anyone tell you different. An artist! And Actor! Sword Fighter? Scholar! And come on....he is just absolutely sexy as hell.

But....that's enough of my girlie drooling. .....Seriously never settle for less than the Extended version.
