Premium Rush: The More THEY fear, the more We CONTROL...

Uhhh ummmm! I'm not gonna run on about this too much
As the message this blog is pretty clear: The More They Fear The More We Control....

Oh, there's actually more to that message that I omitted because I want to you read the rest of my blog so you'll get what I'm attempting to convey...

However that may go. Because I just type...I never preview or change my blogs.

Even though I've just started.

Anyways...


So Im finishing up a couple of chili & habanero sausages (so good!) and King of the Hill is showing right now. It's basically background noise to drown out my neighbors annoying barking dogs. Though King of the Hill is funny as hell, dont get me wrong. But this is why I stop watching television all together.

Noooo! Not because of King of the Hill.
But for the subliminal messages that get into your mind in over a 120 second commercial break.

I was being nice. Commercials I believe are much longer!

I remember catching a glimpse of a billboard that was attached to the side of a bus as I await the light to change.
It's of a guy on a bike and the words across the photo says Premium Rush.
I think to myself. GREAT!...

Since biking has become so popular in So Cal and throughout the world I imagined the fear mangling execs coming up with "a great idea" to make a bike movie....just as they did with Tom Hanks in the scooter movie a couple months ago. Not that Tom Hanks movie was fear mangling, but that they were attempting to capture an audience to increase the sales and riding of motor scooters.

They were 2 years too late. I got mine after the caddy shut down on me. But another story.
On with this one.

SO.....since I've been in rooms with ad execs at one point in my life,  I imagined the discussions & pow-wows for a bike movie in a room of ad & movie execs probably going something like this:

"(one guy) Check this out guys. I got it. I know...let's do a suspenseful, edge of your seat, fear induced movie about guys and bicycles!!"

(Other guy)Yeahhhh! Yeaaaahhhh! Ya know, that's a really great idea.

(one chick with that stupid valley girl accent where the words are spoken when the pitch goes up and down on words as if she was running out of breathe to get a bunch of b.s. out of her brain)Yeah because people need to know how dangerous it is to ride bikes downtown...especially when there's cars on the road. I really hate that. This will show'em!

(Token black guy) Great idea for a movie but it cant just be about bikes! Why not throw some gangter shi* into the mix! Naww mean. I-mean-like.... he roll'n...and  people after him and sh**!...Nawww mean!??!

(older white guy) Oh-Oh-OH yeah...Yeah Token black guy in the room!...like uhhhhh.... he's trying to deliver a package... something from one end of the city to the other!! Yeah!

(the guy) YES. This is our next project. Get us a fresh face for this one. But not too fresh. Somebody that's just been in a hit blockbuster. That way folks will go out to see this guy again in another movie, because they want more of him!

(the chick) YUP!...I know jus the kid. Yo Johnny! What's the kid from the batman movie!? Ya know the one who's gonna play the new robin?

(big chick with attitude) OH YEAH!!...That's Genius! 2 movies in one summer! We get'n paid for this one for sure! I'll make the call.

(the guy) Yeahhh...Yeahhhh...Yeahhhh!! FEAR!! That's what people need more of...is FEAR. People love to FEAR. How did that Battle L.A. movie do? DO you think it did the trick?

(Token black guy mean mugs the guy) Oh yeah it did the trick alright. Unfortunately black people didn't go see it. So you gonna have to try something else. I told you we tough. Aint scared of the funky-tail devil!

(the guy) Ohhhhhhhhhh!!! Now there's a thought.  The Devil!  Let's do a remake!

(the chick) Of what? We killed Chucky, Freddy, Jason, Hanibal! How many times can we reinvent the Devil?!

(the other guy, the one who hasn't spoken since he declared "the great idea") Ummm what about Carrie?

(guy) Carrie like with all the blood and revenge on the school Carrie??

(the chick) YEAH,That Carrie!  PERFECT!! On it....Done! Johnny.....I need ya to make another call! We aiming to scare the holy shit out of people ...AGAIN!!!

the end.
------------- ------------- ---------- --------- ------------------------------- -------------------- ----------- ------------

So...there you have it.


Well, that's just my wild imagination.
But I'm sure it's not too far from the truth.

The More THEY Fear, The more WE Control Their Minds.
The More We Control their minds, The less they have a chance to EVOLVE!

hm!
