movie review: a rival [sic], 2016, amy adams

going in, this movie looks like a winner, forest Whittaker is the coolest negro on the planet, the director is some shit hot French wizard.


talking about that though, what's up with French people, everytime they ask, with their funny little French accents: 'where do you cum from?' I want to yell at them: 'From my testicles bitches, where the hell do you come from??? Weirdo!"


seriously though, seeing the trailers, this is a movie about squids and communist Chinese. Let's get to it: Chinese people eat babies, to increase their virility. For real. And it's not even clear if the women have stopped slaying their newborn young just because they're baby girls, as opposed to boys. There aren't even enough girls in china for the men to marry. It sure is an interesting place! Calligraphy also features prominently in the trailers and it doesn't look like amy Adams had a full frontal nudity clause in her contract, just sayin'


ok it's Saturday, here's the review, before we get to it, here's an article about some fashion designer that 'dressed' michelle Obama, she refuses to dress Trump's wife because she doesn't like trump values:
http://www.msn.com/en-au/news/world/here%E2%80%99s-the-first-designer-to-say-she-won%E2%80%99t-dress-melania/ar-AAktxlC?li=AAabC8j&ocid=spartanntp

I have to say, the developer that built the building my crib is located in, is very Trump like in his or their (it's a company registered with only two owners) practices, it has already taken 20k out of our little pockets with more to come..........all because they like to cut corners and jerk people around, so i'm not overly sympathetic to Trump and I can assure you I won't be dressing Melania either! (or Michelle, although it's not because she's black, I actually think she's quite fetching looking so there you go! you won't be catching me calling her a gorilla! I think she's kind of sexy)


anyway, the trailer for the new star wars movie, rogue 1 looks pretty good, I might just end up watching all three movies together back to back in a few years when they're all out on dvd, not in a hurry, looked good though, that's for sure.......

so a rival deals with themes of linguistics and brain wiring which is one of  benji's main interests in this particular lifetime...... basically there's a girl called Nappan (pronounced nappin') which is written HannaH in Cyrillic.............her parents are big on squids, I mean they just love pulpo al ajillo....... the squids - there are two of them, abbot and Costello, they actually have super-advanced technology that allows them to travel through time and space and they have a massive written alphabet which they squirt out with ink jets, just like the Xerox printers I was engaged in offering product support for in Bulgaria in 2008 to the market of Xerox printer users in spain (on behalf of ibm) -- basic helpdesk IT............... so the squids squirt messages all the time because they are all about dye.........not die like a single die, half a pair of dice, as it were..........the squid are not afraid to be diced, which is the normal destiny for a squid when having relations with humans.......... this is because they are super advanced squid............ so their alphabet consists of circular ink splotches similar to what psychiatrists show you when they're trying to figure out if you're a serial killer....... so nappin's parents are tasked by the u.s. military and the cia to figure out what the deal is with the squid.........same time some other squids are dealing with the chinese and the Russians.............. everyone's scared that the squids will deliver some cutting edge technology to the rival that will help the rival wipe them out......... I actually had a memorable nightmare about this at around age 7: in my nightmare, the chinese had figured out some crazy technology such as is used by aliens to make enormous ufos that float around with ani-gravity --- the chinese built some massive warplane like this the size of a football field or bigger and were going to wipe everyone out........this was in fact the most disturbing nightmare I had as a child...........another disturbing event as a child was watching some giant stuffed toy in the room, maybe before sleepy time, and the light was on, and then all of a sudden I could see like a human hand where the giant teddy's or panda or whatever it was' (inventing a new grammar thing there adding a possessive apostrophe to was) paw would be, the fingers were drumming, as if impatient, it was a kind of psychic vision such as kids have, it was mighty frightening......... I have never related the two aforementioned psychic events of my childhood until now, but they do resonate with one of the big themes in the movie............. in the scene where nappin's mom calls the big chinese general and starts talking to him in chinese, all I could understand was: wo shi zai meguo -- i'm in America --- this is because my chinese is extremely weak

however I did enjoy the notions of linguistics and brain wiring the movie threw up (no pun intended)...... on the drive home I remembered the notion of nappin' and nappy and my own notion of sleepy poops and wondered what it would be like to be a baby, nappin' and crappin' in your sleep.... most people don't crap in their sleep or crap standing up, but for babies it's standard....... as a traveller who has lived in a lot of far flung alien places with no English (or Spanish) I can definitely relate to the baby psychology of just starting at everything like a baby.............. I also recalled flying into Germany one time, as a 16 year old or maybe it was when I was older like 24, and realizing that the way the city in Germany was designed and laid out must have correlated to their language and notions........because it's true what the movie says that each language has a psychology that dictates how people think......... I always found in English the americans were the clearest thinkers of all the English speakers, by far, and they never walk themselves into confusion like other English speakers......... in german though, and Spanish, there is great clarity and precision with words and Spanish also has a lot of tricks when it comes to double meaning and what not........... Spanish is actually a somewhat sophisticated language.......

anyway, with the language in the movie of the squids, they are able to help humans read the future because once you start learning their language you start seeing the future..........maybe aliens are trying to influence filmmakers on the psychic plane to present certain ideas, who knows............ it would have been nice to watch 'giggity: the musical, quagmire's big day out' but it just hasn't been made yet so there's not much
