yesterday watched PEEWEES BIG ADVENTURE which i hadn't seen before. i expected something edgier from a public masturbator but no. it wasn't completely terrible for a satuday morning cartoon but it disappointed my expectations.
speaking of fellinesque, the opening credits by danny elfman sounded definitely rotaesque
and today i watched BAD BOYS. it's my first michael bay movie and it's hilariously over the top. it's impressive how he can squeeze the last drop of spectacle from every single fucking shot and cut, but at the same time the movie is fucking terrible. terrible! it makes zero sense. and yet i can't stop watching for academic reasons--yeah i wanna study how he does shit. the absolute auditory and visual excess. like, a guy doest just get shot--he gets shot and falls backwards onto an electric panel and all sorts of sparks ensue. because the eye must not rest. hilarious.
