Movie References

Hey.


I have seen The Matrix movie quite a few times.  The character Morpheus references the work Alice In Wonderland in the beginning of the movie but I never got a feel for that mention until last night.  I saw the 1951 Walt Disney animated move, Alice In Wonderland.  The white rabbit, the rabbit hole...I get it.  The dream world.  Having your own world.  Alice was on a "real" ride throughout the movie, come to find out she was dreaming the whole time.  That dream world was wild and she didn't have too much control over what was happening when she was chasing the white rabbit but she made it through. 




The movie was also alluded to in the Kevin Smith flick Dogma which in my opinion was a real good movie.  Matt Damon's character was talking to a nun about the walrus, carpenter, and oysters relating it to Jesus Christ, Christianity/Roman Catholicism, and somehow making the nun lose her faith in an airport terminal. 




I had the opportunity to see the one where Johnny Depp starred but I wanted to see the original.  The book was written by Lewis Carol a long time ago.  I may, some day, check out the book and read it. 




Worlds, you gotta have at least one or two worlds of your own because dealing in this reality can be tough. 




Just sayin'.  Just some talk.


Peace.

THE WIZARD OF OZ!!!

I have now seen, in it's entirety, the original movie, The Wizard Of Oz. 


For a G rated movie.  .  .  Wow.


Dorothy (Judy Garland) was a hot, young, babe yo.  If she had done Playboy magazine like Marilyn Monroe did, she would have been  a super-hot celebrity in my opinion. 


I didn't get her name but the wicked witch (of the west?) was Super-hot!!! :) .   They said she was ugly but I thought she was not bad.  I loved the fact that she was power-hungry.  She may have been bad but she was good in a way. 


If this was real, she definitely would not have had a random bucket of water out for her to be vaporized by Dorothy.  Lol, the real ending would have been the Tin man, the Scarecrow, and the Lion would have been killed.  Dorothy would have been killed and the witch would of gotten the ruby shoes!!  The witch would of eventually "taken down" the Mighty Oz and she would of ruled the Land Over The Rainbow unchallenged. 



Hhhhmmmmm.  Creative license. 


Just sayin'.


That movie was made a long time ago.  The brought in a lot of little people to do the munchkin roles.  The special effects were not bad even for today's audience.  For a Kansas family trying to get by, they seemed a little too "energetic" and alive in their personalities to...be struggling.  (Were they struggling to survive?).  Other than the time when she got poisoned by the sleep flowers, Dorothy was always "on".  She really had her energy-drinks throughout the movie. 


Dancing and singing, a good movie for all.  There's no place like home.  

Peace.
