Why did I do that

So last night I was on Netflix because I was way too lazy to do any real work and on instant stream there was Hellraiser and I was like OH MAN I HAVE TO WATCH THIS because I had never seen it because I was not "mature enough" to handle it. But yeah, I watched it. There was a lot to make fun of because you know, it's a fairly old movie. Overall it was pretty excellent though and I'm glad I watched it because I rediscovered Clive Barker's amazing everything and it made me feel like a kid again oddly.

Anyways so I finished watching that and wept a single tear of joy because I truly enjoyed the movie but then I realized I still wasn't tired, so I threw on another movie on instant stream I still hadn't watched: Rango.

WHY DID I FOLLOW UP HELLRAISER WITH RANGO THAT WAS THE WORST POSSIBLE THING

Okay no I'm exaggerating a bit. Following it up with something like Rio on the other hand would have been the worst possible thing.

I had a lot of issues with Rango. Overall it wasn't that bad, it was pretty much just the old story of puss in boots except with a chameleon in the middle of the desert. I figured out they were stationed near Las Vegas not even halfway through the movie because LOLOL Mojave Desert in a valley WHERE ELSE COULD THEY POSSIBLY BE?

I'm really sick of movies making it seem like the desert is the worst possible place to live because there isn't an abundance of water.

Also go figure, "cactus juice" is how many desert dwelling animals survive but they made it seem like that was an impossibility by making it some alcoholic beverage to everyone living in that small little town.

The only characters who didn't fit a western stereotype was the mayor and Rango (when he wasn't acting).

Also there was some kind of environmental message like most animated movies these days seem to have and "oh yeah see when you make a city in the desert it kills the wild life" is all I got out of that. Building a city anywhere kills the wild life you guys. Also there's already an abundance of us living in said cities, it's not like we can really fix that or anything. We need the water too, dammit.

The only place in Vegas that was as green as what looked to be a golf course when Rango was looking down at the city is Summerlin, which is like our own little installment of LA, aka where all the rich cock sucks live who believe everything should be ridiculously green all the time. It's a shame because the desert is beautiful and trying to keep something that green is just... no stop. LA gets most of our water bee tee doubleu.
