Critical Acclaim

I doubt that Mel Gibson (let's call him Mellow for the time being) will ever read this, but if he would, he'd certainly agree.

"What's a good movie without good clothes?"
The operative word being 'without'.

I'm not sure what drugs he was doing when he filmed 'Apocalypto', but if you do know, please be sure to consume the same before you watch it. Of course, if you can't guess that i thoroughly enjoyed the film, despite (rather because of) the mindless violence, gory details of morbid anatomy, heaps of mayan corpses (churned out on a daily basis), rivers of blood, mundane predictability, utterly inappropriate censor rating, hoards of stunned spectators going 'wtf?!' (many of them walking out); then you must not know me at all.
(You are free to read through that convoluted sentence again if its length has caused you to forget how it started.)
And if you are a budding doctor, please consider becoming Mel's psychiatrist. It oughta be a fun job. Also watch the movie if you like cardiology. There's a free demonstration of a cardiectomy (i know that you think there's no such thing) as a bonus.
And to those Drunkards Two, I can't imagine watching such drivel with anyone else!

Spoiler Warning:

(wikipedia style; i know i've had too much wiki when i start using words like 'disambiguation' and spoiler warning on a routine basis)

you forget to give me credit. i did predict the solar eclipse rescuing our protagonist. and not to mention the piece de resistance, the spaniards landing up on that god forsaken shore.

i wasn't just drunk, you know. mel must have been on the same drug that i had been doing that afternoon. which also goes to explain the spilt corn and inexplicably abrupt pauses at GB.

and i insist. the predictability was far from mundane. required nothing short of mellow's (and my) outrageous creative genius.

the inexplicably abrupt pauses at GB are a story by themselves.... with a perfectly legitimate aetiology.

and which drug is it?... do share.

my comment on this post is highly overdue...and for that i apologize.. nonetheless...i think you've summarised our apocalypto experience pretty well....such drivel really isn't for the faint-hearted, or those who've had their hearts ripped out of their chests, for that matter...and i'd really like to know the name of that drug...so i can spill some corn too
