SURPRISE FRAK - Zardoz - August 16th 10PM ET

You know something? Life nowadays is not all that different from this. :rolleyes:

Sword to the back of the neck? Harsh!

“Zed. Zed. Zed. Zed.”

Zed is dead, baby. Zed is dead.

Wow, that was fast.

That seed is pretty amazing stuff.

bwhahahahahaha! :smiley:

Alright. What the frak do you think all that meant? Was it just a surreal romp into a possible future or did it have some meaning for us (or them 70s folks)?

Obviously, separating the more intellectual aspects of humanity from the more animalistic can only lead to disaster. Along the same lines, the elite ignoring the suffering of the masses is doom for all.

What I think:

Humanity screwed up by messing with the natural process. Zardoz in its wisdom devises a plan to return to the natural order using Zed to achieve that end.

Yeah. There is a sense that we all need to live together and embrace our complex nature or it will consume and destroy us.

And the end is essentially a reunion of the two parts of humanity.

Like a Human-Cylon hybrid. :eek:

It’s always a love story. :stuck_out_tongue:

Truth be told, it was better than I expected. I can definitely see how this came from the same creative well as Excalibur. But still, it’s a bizarre frakkin’ spectacle.

For an almost 200 year old song, Beethoven’s 7th Symphony stands up pretty well.

giggle

Yeah, his stuff was OK. :stuck_out_tongue:

No doubt, but you have to admire the completely alien and surreal elements. There is no attempt to connect with the audience. You are just along for the ride.

…all of which makes me want to watch Excalibur now. :smiley:

I’ll content myself to just listen to some of the music instead.

You had to go and do that. Now I want to watch ‘Excalibur’.

Alas, I must rest. Tomorrow calls like a spirit hands council wanting a communal consensus.

Something like that.

I know. I have to be up ungodly early tomorrow.

But we must do Excalibur. Soon.

Agreed. Can’t wait to wake that watery tart up! :smiley:

OK, I must go to bed, before I decide to dig out the DVD and get less than three hours of sleep tonight. :stuck_out_tongue:

Good night. :slight_smile:
