Both very good ... Jacobs ladder was definately a mind screw! “We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.” Oscar Wilde |

That was back when most everybody still went to church, so it was a different time in America. It wasn't like today where everyone is so desensitized that nothing phases them. |

I was in my 30's. I've seen other war movies, but this one was different.

I couldn't wrap my head around the idea that I lived in a world with evil flying monkeys. I could go as far as flying monkeys but not evil flying monkeys. Quoting: Hearth Light 1430445 So it seems to be Oz as the most influential so far along with ET the matrix. Back to the future has been mentioned several times too. Oh and star Wars!

fossil User ID: 1686108 United States 09/22/2011 01:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | As an adult, I would say Amistad hit me pretty hard. (my ancestors were slave capture / trade privateers sanctioned by Queen Liz I) When Cinque was in the greenhouse with Adams and he saw a tiny African violet under glass- it was something beautiful and familair in a foreign, cruel land.. Before the trial for his freedom, Cinque said: "I will call into the past, far into the beginning of time, and beg them to help me at the judgment. I will reach back and draw them into me. And they must come … for at this moment I am the whole reason they have existed at all." That was so powerful. |
