I know this is kinda late but I wanted to blog about Ash Sunday. I thought that it was one of the sweetest shout films that I have ever seen. The images are wonderful, the art is good. The story is cute whether you look at it from a christian perspective or not. It communicates so much without ever saying a word. The artist is a genius. I don't agree with Proffessor Leeper on most of the films that he shows in class but I loved this one. I don't know what else to say about this except that it is Awesome!
Moving on to Sour Death Balls. I thought that thos was pretty cool too. I could feel my mouth pucker up as I watched it. I can feel my mouth pucker up now just thinking about it. It was very cute and I thought it was interesting some of the expressions that they had. It was very expressive and it definitly got the message of sour across. The artistry was amazing in its simplicity. And once again the communicated a lot without saying a word.

Hey,
I'm blogging about Baby Got Book. I actually kinda liked it. I thought it was funny. I just watched it again and my biggest complaint was that it kept freezing up. I think that its a good way to change a secular, offensive song to a christian, unoffensive song. There was one part near the end that I didn't like, the part about holy kissing. If you are going to kiss a girl dont excuse it because its "holy kissing". If youre gonna kiss just kiss. But Ill get off the soapbox now. Back to Baby Got Book. My friend met the guy who made it and his wife at an event and she said they were very down to earth and nice. She was very impresed with them. I dont really agree with Mr Leeper (Is it Mr, Dr, or Proffesor?). I'm not going to fail if I dis agree with him am I? I guess the music was a little predatory but it was that way with the original song, if you changed the music it wouldnt be the same thing. I think that Mr Leeper's view comes from the fact that he has daughters and hes in dad mode. I guess theres nothing wrong with that, I would want my dad to protect me if he thought there was something that wouldn't be good for me. But Leeper was also saying that the art wasnt good or something. I dont think that he really likes most of the stuff that is comming out these days. I guess he did say that he doesn't like American culture. But it seems that he doesn't like a lot of stuff. And I do not agree that Gay Boyfriend was the more christian of the two. I found Gay Boyfriend a little offensive. The guys should take offense too because Gay Boyfriend is basically saying that all guys will try to get in your pants and thats not true there are good christian guys out there. Im not saying that they wont think about it just that they wouldnt do it. Well I think thats about 300 words and a picture so Ill sign off now. Bye
