I... I... what?

AHEM.

Rubber. Movie description on IMDB: "When Robert, an inanimate tire, discovers his destructive telepathic powers, he soon sets his sights on a desert town; in particular, a mysterious woman becomes his obsession."

Watch the trailer.

...What. Just. WHAT.

......I want to see this movie. XD; I feel like it might be a requirement in my life.

In other news, I'm about to go off with [livejournal.com profile] shichahn and watch birdies (hopefully, cross my fingers, knock on wood) kill things. :D

I, um... well, that's definitely not what I would expect from a movie called "Rubber." But hey, the trailer references Beckett so it must be good-weird, right? (-;

Where do you even come across these things?

Front page of IMDB. I was looking to see if there had been an episode of Young Justice yesterday. (There was.)

Ohmigod, this movie comes out in the US on April 1st. Of course it does. ...So going to see it.

I had a friend who used to pick out movies with descriptions like that for us to watch. Sometimes, they'd turn out to be surprisingly good. And sometimes, they'd be exactly what they sounded like. Kind of a lottery. o.0

Well, IMDB users give it 6.8 stars out of 10. The reviews go like this: three people think it's brilliant and freaking LOVE it, two people think it SUCKS. ...I'm guessing this is going to be one of those movies that is so quirky and weird that 90% of what matters is personal preference.

I watched the trailer. It looks ... surreal. And actually, kind of interesting. (My biggest WTF moment was actually the fact that the cops/general populace were going with it and looking for a killer tyre, not locking people up for being crazy. XD)

Also, is he technically inainimate? He must be conscious, in some way, to actually do things, and he moves himself around the place. And they give him a name. Hmm ... I suppose it depends on your definitions.

Enjoy watching the birdies! :D

Yeah, that bothered me, too. I would argue that Robert is an animate tire.

Thank you, we shall! :D There's a birdie in the car with me right now, he's so FLUFFY AND CUTE, ASDFJKLGHFDS! <3 <3 <3

Wait, what's that about birds? And heh. Yeah, that tire thing is too weird! Reminds me of a short I saw about murderous Christmas trees.

My friend [livejournal.com profile] shichahn is a falconer with an American kestrel named Napoleon (check out [livejournal.com profile] tinylongwing if you'd like to see gorgeous pictures of him). I like to live vicariously through her falconry. As I type this from my phone we are at the Oregon Falconry Association's winter meet, and we are driving off to find some mice for Napoleon to hunt.

Cool! Just read the entry you made about it and it sounds like you had a great time!

[identity profile] look-alive.livejournal.com 2011-01-29 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
How. How the fuck does that movie look as good as it does? How does that even work? HOW IS THAT ALLOWED TO WORK?

Oh my god what is this.

Fuck it. I'm going to Hollywood to become a screenwriter.

I dunno, you might do better in France. Apparently.
