Unsent email theater
Basically
I just need some fucking information man
Otherwise I gotta fill in the blanks all by myself
And you know how mad libs go
Shit never ends up following the story they had in mind when they wrote it
Like
You never want to actually explain anything to anybody because explaining shit is too much of a hassle for you
Well not assuming shit based my own frame of reference is too much of a hassle for me
People make assumptions because the world is fucking filled with unknowns and leaps of logic and shit that requires immediate response
We have a highly evolved survival mechanism in our brains that is literally based around being able to jump to conclusions
Saying people need to stop assuming is like saying people need to stop being afraid of things they feel threatened by
You don't want people to make assumptions
You gotta fill in
The fucking blanks

So I rented Face/Off
From an acting perspective the movie is kind of interesting
Since Travolta and Cage switch roles halfway through the film
So you get to see Cage trying to play Travolta while Travolta apes Cage's delivery
I wonder how much work they did together during shooting to come up with a cohesive set of characters so that when they swapped roles it would at least be believable in the context of the film
Actually I don't really wonder that at all
Because when the movie started and I saw Nick Cage with a mustache I instantly reached nirvana
I found the only question I am now capable of asking
Is why doesn't Cage have this mustache in EVERY scene
In EVERY movie
EVER
Although to be fair it didn't end up detracting from his performance
In fact after it's only after he loses the mustache that Cage graces the audience with what is unequivocally
The most fantastic hostage execution ever
