I’m a big fan of the ’80s and ’90s pop culture. I like the idea of the three different levels of consciousness and how that is a reflection of how we feel at all specific time points in our lives. It can be a good way to get to know yourself and where you are in life.
As I noted in my last post, I’m a big fan of pop culture and I’m very interested in the idea of “third” consciousness, but I don’t think I’ve even begun to scratch the surface of this idea. And this is one of those ideas that’s so complex that it keeps me from fully getting it.
I think it is good to look at pop culture and its themes of the day and think about what they might mean, but I don’t think Ive figured out a great way to explain it in a way that is comprehensible to the layman. Im not sure I’m ready to go down this path.
It’s not so much that pop culture has to make sense, but that it has to make sense in a way that makes sense to the viewer. Sometimes I feel like it’s like being a fan of the Simpsons and the X-Files. They are both great films with a lot of great ideas, but they are very difficult to explain to the layman.
I know I am one of those people. I think this is why I love comic books. They are a great balance between being a great story and an excellent art style that really makes you feel like you are watching a movie. That is what I want to do with my next project. I want to combine pop culture and comic book (and other, unrelated, media) together in an interesting way. I think I will call it The Mad Mimi Show.
I love that you are calling mine a “great” and “excellent” and “very difficult to explain” and “another great balance between being a great story and an excellent art style” and “something I love” and “a great balance between pop culture and comic book and other, unrelated, media”. I like it.
After watching this movie, I knew I wanted more pop culture, comic book, and other, related, media to be involved. My only fear was if I could find a reason to be so busy with this project that I could get away with it. My hope was to get some more pop culture in the way that I did.
I wish I could tell you the reason for my love of the pop culture genre of which the movie is made. There is no one reason, but I can tell you that it was a combination of my love for good storytelling and my love of great art style.
The movie is being directed by Simon Curtis (the one who directed the excellent movies ‘The Hobbit’, ‘The Dark Knight’, and ‘Inception’) who also directed the excellent ‘Harry Potter’ movies. He was also responsible for the hilarious ‘The Lego Movie’ and ‘The Smurfs’ films.
Well, I’m just a big fan of both, but I think that the main reason I love the movie is the great art style. I love the way it’s constructed in 2D and 3D, the way it’s shot, the way it’s lit, and the way it’s shot with great effect. The movie looks the way you’d expect a movie made for the big screen to look.
