Okay, people on LJ may or may not know this, but I love watching the Cinema Snob. I don't consider myself a fan of exploitation flicks, being the squeamish person I am, but damn, the Snob's humor goes right in line with mine~ ♥ I shared his videos with James and now we're both fans. The movies the Snob reviews and the jokes he makes becomes injokes among James and I.

And now, I have a greater respect for the Cinema Snob than ever. Why? Because he has a stronger stomach than both of us combined. *salute* Case in point. James and I trying to watch Pink Flamingos. (His idea, not mine.)

Me: Hey, this isn't so bad.
Screen: *shows the chicken scene*
Me: ...Um.

Then after urm... the syringe scene, and the short scene after that (where our main villains announce their diabolical plans to ruin Divine's birthday), we had to stop the movie.

MY BRAINS. I WILL NEVER BE CLEAN AGAIN. DDD: *hedgehog hiss forever* I'm... actually glad that we didn't continue this movie. Usually I'm a stickler about watching the entire thing when it comes to books/movies/whatever, but... considering what happens in Pink Flamingos for the ending, I don't think I'll regret not seeing it.

James and I went to watch South Park (aka a Cute Episode with Butters, and Stan being sad because Wendy broken up with him) and I'm still waiting to heal. I wanted to watch FAKE for a remedy, but it wasn't available on Netflix. Noooooooes. ;;

We're going to bed, 'cause I'm having my first sleepover~ ♥ I'll just have to scrub the images of Pink Flamingos by reading one of my new Raggedy Ann books. Yeeeah. *picks up Paper Dragon* SAVE ME JOHNNY GRUELLE. TAKE ME AWAY TO FAIRY TALE LANDS WITH FRIENDLY WOODLAND CREATURES WHO SPEAK OF KINDNESS AND BENEVOLENCE AND EVERYTHING IS PURE. I WAS A KID ONCE. REALLY. I PROMISE I WON'T MAKE PERVERTED JOKES ABOUT RAGGEDY ANDY. REALLY. (Okay, he's still gay, but it's an adorable innocent cute gay. No sex here. SEE? There's still hope for me. ;; *whimper*)

James apologizes for showing Pink Flamingos. It's okay, I forgive him~ ♥

Dear lord I just READ what it's about on wikipedia and I fear I'll never be the same again. :S

*snuggles* Let's face it. It's much better than having watched it. No, Audino in my icon, N doesn't want to let you read about the scary.

cinema snob has the sexiest voice i've ever heard. i would watch him review the phone book.

[insanepurin.livejournal.com]

They say he sounds like a younger Jack Nicholson. That alone makes him even more awesome and sexy. ♥ His wife is so lucky~

James and I trying to watch Pink Flamingos.

You're braver souls than I. I cringed and had to back-click just from reading Wikipedia's summary. @_@

[insanepurin.livejournal.com]

You're better off watching the Cinema Snob's review of it. I didn't think I'd be so happy to see blackboxes in my life. D:

[sarajayechan.livejournal.com]

I'll have to give him a watch soon. I have a VERY weak stomach for gore and nausea fuel, but it might be easier to watch in short bursts.

[insanepurin.livejournal.com]

He also makes fun of bad porno spoofs, so he's also a form of Weeping Cock in a way. XD Like the Super Hornio Bros. movies or Beaver & Buttface. Or *dundundun* E.T. The Porno. I'm serious.

[sarajayechan.livejournal.com]

...oh man. XD This I gotta see!

Cinema Snob sat through Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom

He wins the iron stomach lifetime achivement award.

[private-enemy.livejournal.com]

Oh man. The Criterion Collection is rereleasing Salo on blu-ray in October, my best friend and I are totally getting it and watching it together. I figure if we can make it through Antichrist (graphic on-screen genital mutilation!) and In the Realm of the Senses (endless amounts of graphic unsimulated sex acts!) we'll be able to survive this. ...hopefully.

[insanepurin.livejournal.com]

Oh man. I wish both you guys luck. You're gonna need it. *cliiiiiiiiiiing*

[kitty-advanced.livejournal.com]

If you do, the next steps are A Serbian Film and the Za ginipiggu series.

[insanepurin.livejournal.com]

Dude. Friends don't let friends watch A Serbian Film. The second I read "newborn porn" on the Wikipedia summary, a part of my soul screamed and died.

The fact that Brad regrets seeing it is quite telling.

[insanepurin.livejournal.com]

"Finally, a film of truly graphic, pretentious, and amazing sensationalism that I can fully get behind it! Oh, sure, Pier Pasolini's Salò may gross us out from time to time; but here is a film that shows us the depths of human depravity and the corruption of power at the hands of fascists...and...and..." [Vomits into his toilet]"

[wind-phoenix.livejournal.com]

Yeah, don't think I'll read the Wiki summary of that movie either. My poor stomach won't handle it. D:

[insanepurin.livejournal.com]

#29 in 50 Films To See Before You Die, folks! I'll pass.

[private-enemy.livejournal.com]

Ah yes, Pink Flamingos. While I've never watched it in it's entirety, I have seen...eh, "selected scenes" from it. It was so long ago I'd honestly completely forgotten about it 'till just now. I feel a wave of...unpleasantness washing over me. :/

[insanepurin.livejournal.com]

If the beginning segments were enough to make me swear celibacy, that should tell you something how filthy it is. At least it lives up to its title?

Poor James is probably gonna attempt watching it again without me. I'll either have to comfort him or take a shovel to build a grave for his vulnerable soul.
