I don't know about the chicken, but I'm pretty sure the building is supposed to be suggestive of the Ship of Lights from the original Battlestar Galactica.

Lefties, who typically close their eyes and cover their ears, understand Stalinist and Nazi propaganda styles. Hence the artist is merely communicating in a language they'll understand and be more likely to see and be drawn to.

bc, it's good to remember (in times like these) that the Stalinists in the old Soviet Union were the Conservatives and the Nazis in the late 30's and early 40's in Germany were the Capitalists.

God, how I hope this movie is good; I love it when the Wachowskis manage to get their sh*t together and produce a good movie.

I've not read a single good review. But the reviews about how hilariously bad it is are themselves a fun read.

Your mileage may vary of course, I'm not really a Wachowski fan...

[_The Erotic Apologist]

Wow, hadn't realized it had already hit the theaters. Maybe I should close my textbooks and come up for air. As for the Wachowskis, I liked Bound and that first Matrix flick, but everything else they've done since then has really stunk, in my opinion.

Don't know what value you put on Roger Ebert's opinions, but here you go. (Me? I can't take him seriously after his reviews of Freddy Got Fingered and Lost Highway.)

Well, you piqued my curiosity to the point where I had to go to Ebert's site and read the review for Freddie Got Fingered. His take on it is...interesting. The tone is similar to what he says about Pink Flamingos. Can't help but wonder what he'd say about 2 Girls 1 Cup.

I had seen this so-called artist's work before, but had not realized he was LDS. I should have. But did not.

My entire family LOVES this man's work. My entire family often embarrasses the hell out of me.

It is propaganda kitsch, pure and simple. I marvel that anyone can find a smidgeon of artistic interest in this waste of paint, canvas and time.

Lefties were his intended audience?
