The time is now gentlemen.
Blockbuster season is upon us.
Go forth to your local multiplex and look at the coming attractions, and whats now showing.
It has begun with The Mummy Returns and Pearl Harbor, and it will continue for a couple of months.
Most of what will be show on the big screen will be the multi-million dollar budget, special effect driven movies that Hollywood is best known for.
And personally, I love it!
I don't care if there are holes in the plot big enough to drive a bus through. I don't care if the acting is, at best, wooden.
I'll just sit there for a couple of hours, shovelling popcorn into my mouth, watching things blow up. And I'll love it!
Even though I know that they're going to try to use the same old emotional traps to get you to care about the characters, and the same, predictable one man against the odds storylines, I don't care, it's fun!
I love blockbuster season, despite it's lack of everything that truely great movies are all about. And why? I don't know for sure, but a world of complete fantasy in which mummies are brought back to life, or dinosaurs walk the Earth is just more appeal to me than a realistic gritty drama?
Maybe it's because I like to use the cinema for esacapism, and want to be entertained for the evening. I know for sure that the films I watch at the cinema are much different from those I choose to rent at home.
Maybe it's because these blockbusters work best with the big screen and the booming sound effects. A decent film will still be great when watched on video, on a regular sized TV, whereas the blockbuster doesn't have the same effect.
This Summer more mindless, money driven trash is on the way, and I'll be first in line to gobble it up!
Funny hey?

It is quite weird how a normal human feeling is to thrive at destruction.
I am sure most people would rather see the 'Eifel Tower' blow up in a massive fireball (can that happen?) than see another one like it built.
And Pearl Harbour, I'm sure there were not that many explosions when the real event occured.
The new U2 video is cool if you like explosions... it goes somthing like this BOOM BANG BOOM Elevation BOOM BANG [guitar solo] BANG
Good stuff
