Oct. 26th, 2012 01:20 pmI took this morning off, as promised, and saw Looper. It was as good a film as everyone told me (and a time travel film was highly appropriate for today, given the nature of the idiot doctorate) but there were certain Rules of the Looper Universe that annoyed me somewhat:
1. Women do not time travel
2. Women only use guns to defend
3. Women don't get to participate in crime except where sex and drugs are involved
4. All women are nurturing
5. All women who speak (and maybe all women) wear size ten or under in clothing. Most of them wear size ten or well under
6. Women do not talk to other women. Grunts and maybe a 'thank you' when one grabs a child from child care are, however, permissible interfeminine social discourse
7. Women are not numerous (which suggests alternate means of procreation or very large families) and have specific social roles, with the largest numbers being either on the street or in nightclubs
I want three more points, but lunch beckons. After lunch I might go to the Canberra Museum after I run my various messages.
