what do I win, apart from the ire of talkbackers everywhere? Harry really should offer a Marvel-style "No-Prize".

Chicago 10 by SeanMiller	Jan 19th, 2007 03:29:08 PM
I saw the movie yesterday and I have to disagree. I thought the music and animation was the best part. The music was so loud and in your face that it kept the movie flowing. This is like an anti-documentary. Hank Azaria deserves special recognition for great voicework.

A look at the life of a Seattle man who died as a result of an unusual encounter with a horse. Check it out Quint and let us know if it's any good.
Seen Punishment Park? by Tubbs Tattsyrup	Jan 19th, 2007 04:41:44 PM
It's basically about the Chicago 10, except made a little (lot) more extreme.
Punishment Park by RodneyOz	Jan 20th, 2007 07:55:58 AM
...has NOTHING to do with the Chicago trial. It's a bit of 1970 leftwing paranoia about an evil American dictatorship putting protestors and dissidents in a wasteland park and promising them freedom if they can survive and make it to the other side, while TV cameras broadcast it live (which makes it an early prediction of reality TV I guess). There were a hell of a lot of dodgy trials of political activists, and a common paranoid fear on the left was that Nixon was going to open up concentration camps in the desert. Add those two tendencies together, you get 'Punishment Park'. Absolutely fuck all to do with a genuine portrayal of the Chicago trial (or indeed anything else happening in America at the time) - as close to reality as 'V for Vendetta' is to a realistic portrait of life in England at the moment.
