This is My Fucking Opinion

Author's Note:  The following is an experiment in the process of using polarities and divisiveness in a way which transcends polarities and divisiveness.  Please don't take its aggressive tone too seriously.

1. The Star Wars prequel trilogy is just as fucking good as the original Star Wars trilogy.  The original trilogy had more historical impact on the film medium and the cultural mindset because it was produced at a time when people were most receptive to a particular type of narrative, but both trilogies are inherently campy, silly, absurd, fantastic pulp sci-fi, with deeper meaning hidden just beneath the surface, and all of it is one-hundred percent movie magic.
2. The fourth Indiana Jones was just as fucking good as the first three.  Like Star Wars, the Indiana Jones series was always intended to be campy, silly, absurd, paying homage to the classic pulp adventure novel mentality.  It was never intended to be “realistic” except in the since that absurdism is realism because reality is absurd.  And putting aliens in an Indiana Jones film was one hell of a ballsy move, and it fit perfectly the cultural landscape of the time period it was portraying.
3. Cloverfield was a damn good movie.  Among the greatest films of all time.  Yes.  It was.  Fuck you.
4. Fuck fuck, fuck.  Fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck.
5. Enough of this idea of films “sucking”.  Films don’t “suck”.  There is no ontological “suck”.  Every work of art is beautiful and sacred as a living embodiment of the human condition.  No matter how disappointed you are with a work of art or entertainment (because entertainment IS fucking art), it is incredibly disrespectful to say any that any such work “sucks”.  There is no such thing as a bad film, a bad novel, a bad album.  There are only human films, human novels, human albums.  There are varying levels of complexity in human art because they are varying levels of complexity in human intelligence, but all human art serves a purpose because all human beings serve a purpose.
6. Ninety-nine percent of critics in any medium are more unqualified for their job than any single group of people in the entire world.  If you don’t engage in the creative process yourself, you really don’t have any right to critique creative works.  If you do engage in the creative process, you have an obligation to critique creative works.  The problem with our contemporary critical society is that it takes the power of creative judgment out of the hands of the people who are doing the creating in any given medium.  It allows critics to dismiss a work as a “failure” and thus create the false impression that they are “above” the work, that they are “smarter” than the work, but it is just as impossible to be above or smarter than a work of art as it is to be above or smarter than the Internet.  It is a dynamic artifact injected with living human awareness, and as such, it is a process rather than a destination and should be critiqued as such, without the air of pompous finality that has infected the entire critical landscape.
7. The Matrix Trilogy, and all associated art, is a beacon of light into the fantastical future of human potential.
8. If one wants to see the future of filmmaking will look like, one should look no further than the frenetic mind-melt of The Wachowski Brother’s Speed Racer, the gritty hyper-realism of Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight, and the brilliant promise of the latest 3-D HD technology.
9. M. Night Shyamalan is a great writer, a great director, and one of the greatest artists of our times.  All of his films are great.  All of them.
10. All art is about love.  Malevolent satire, that is, satire without intentional awareness of the flow of love, that is, stupid satire, because all is love, this satire is dead.  Satire of the wonderful absurdity of the human condition that allows us to arrive at this profound diversity of life is alive and well.
11. Metaphor itself is a metaphor for the fluid nature of reality.  Don’t be so sure you “know” what things represent.
12. Sex is not dirty.  Sex is not a sin.  Sex is an inherent quality of human awareness because human complexity, the complexity of the human body and brain, would not be possible without sexual variability and reproduction.  Sex is an inherent part of the creative process because sex is literally the creative source of our being.  Experience or lack of experience in specific sexual intercourse, or in specific cultural courtship practices built on top of the polarities of sex, is a non-issue except in very specific circumstances.  We all exchange fluids through the air.  We all exchange energy through art and through being.  We are all having sex, with every other being on the planet, right now.  We are shifting, sifting, membranes filled with fluid.  We are streaming processes of living energy.  We are all engaged in a dynamic exchange and love and light, filtered through the visage of suffering, which itself is only a mask, like fiction, which, rather than hide what lies beneath, acts as a conduit to a radical transparency, showing the face beneath the face.  The face you had before your parents were born.
