MY GELATO IS TRYING TO GET ME DRUNK.

Beautiful

Beautiful choreography, beautiful actresses, beautiful music.

Yes, Devdas is my favorite Bollywood movie.

Boogyman

I couldn't begin to describe all the strange things I've researched in working on Artemis. Diseases, hand bones, language of flowers, ice cream, aquariums/zoos, Jannah (Islamic Paradise), nitty-gritty details on fruit, weapons/firearms. All of these things just to make sure they existed in 1863 (I was sad that Kamen couldn't crack an Alice joke on Rei.) Sometimes it seems like a little much to delve into for a few moments of interest, but then again, it does give me something to smile about later.

When I was in kindergarden our teacher decided to show us this movie around Christmas, that was a variation of the Nutcracker. In my opinion the music for the ballet is waaaaaaay too overplayed, I much prefer Swan Lake. Every once in a while I would look for this movie but had no such luck until about an hour ago. Its a stop-animation, much like Santa Clause is Coming to Town (a few of the people who worked on that project had a hand in this), but it was done in Japan and got a few awards. The movie was released around 1980, and is cheesy, as badly done as most other stop-animation, and gritty.

The beginning two and a half minutes are what scared me, and from the comments on YouTube, it looks like it had similar effects.

Looks like an over-hyped boogyman, right? A rag man was basically a junk man who would travel around and ask people to trade their junk for things of value. Bones, scraps of fabric, and bits of metal, anything really. There's a VERY similar name for the Boogyman in many spanish-speaking countries, all of which mean "Sack Man".

Sack Man stories are all pretty much like the beginning animation for that movie. He collects bad children and throws them into his sack to eat. Seeing as how Hombre del Saco actually existed in the 16th and 17th centuries, its easily something Kamen can toss about.

Fuck this shit, I was terrified of the Rag Man when I was little. I still have this anal tendency with the blankets Robbie doesn't understand. Always up over my head but away from my nose so the Rag Man couldn't tickle me and wake me up.

EDIT: What a fucked up way to start a children's movie.

...I can't believe I'm downloading it now...
