Logan's Run TV series intro
07/10/09, 17:02
Has anyone else noticed that all the classic sci-fi from the late 60s/early 70s always had the main character yelling something at the end?
Planet of the Apes: "GOD DAMN YOU!! GOD DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!!"
Soylent Green: "SOYLENT GREEN IS MADE OF PEOPLE!!"
Logan's Run: "YOU DON'T HAVE TO DIE!! YOU CAN LIVE!!" |

Parking Japanese buses over precipices

I have a theory about why Japanese humor isn't funny.
Up until the 1940s, Japan was a rigidly defined warrior society. Their entertainment was largely dramatic and epic.
Them WWII hits, they lose BIG TIME, their strongest and fiercest men are all dead or defeated, they've had 2 nukes wipe out 2 cities and they aren't allowed to have any kind of respectable standing army as a provision of their surrender. As a result, the society had to shift. Comedy is relatively new to them. America is an offshoot of European culture that's been doing comedy well since before the days of Shakespeare and Moliere. Japanese humor is still rooted in slapstick and puerile sex and body function jokes. We have that too, but as an element of a larger tapestry of disparate styles of humor. |

Could someone PLEASE explain to my why EVERY Japanese TV show has a picture-in-picture of people watching what I'm watching? What the hell is that about? WHY?!?!? |

Thank Vishnu there wasn't YouTube when I was his age. I'd hate to think I may have been stupid enough to post a video ranting about how people make fun of my videos. |

I remember this when it aired. It was literally the moment I realized I love John Stewart. He handles that humorless ice queen with absolute dexterity. |

Does the sound seem odd to anyone else? It's like i can hear the revving of individual cars, tire squeals and shifting.
Normal NASCAR sounds like a brazillion mosquitoes. |

That was filmed in Seattle. I was at that show. I was in the 2nd balcony, and if you listen REAL CLOSE, you can sorta hear me yell, "SHATNER!!" when he says Shatner. |

I don't trust him. I get the feeling all his research is somehow driving toward the goal of sending Jews to Saturn. |
