I can't really think of anything here...
Fix global warming, lower dependence on fossil fuels and advocate voluntary population decline so as to avoid overpopulation etc.
I used to love the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
I can't really think of anyone I would want to put up with for that long.
Pick a random close friend or family member?
1) - Kill Bill
- any old school kung-fu movie
- American History X
- The Wizard (video gamer nostalgia)
- Memento
2) This is stuff I have gotten into since after high school (still not quite done with college).
- music
- philosophy
- environmental humanities (issues)
- public relations
3)
- I would make it to where everyone in the world, no matter what country they live in (but especially in the U.S.), is required to learn a secondary language of their choosing. I believe this would create an overall better understanding between cultures allowing for less conflict. Most of the conflict in the world is no more than cultural misunderstanding and disrespect.
- I would do something about the corrupt, greedy, and massively overpowered corporations of the world. This is especially true in America where a powerhouse corporation is considered an "individual"; therefore, their political and commercial speech is not only protected like an individual, but always geared towards money and power even at the expense of others.
- I would make it to where parents would not be allowed to expose thier children to any kind of religious institution of any sort. This is because children are highly influential and are not old enough yet to think for themselves. Allow the child to grow and develop their own thoughts and opinions, and once they reach a certain age (16, 17, 18?) they will be able to decide for themselves what to believe.
4) - Acorns
- largely wooded areas
5) - ...I guess my girlfriend?
Phanto
Alalalalalalalala.
Just random 5 I've watched pretty recently also:
Omega Man
Children of Men
Mad Max 2
Predator
Lord of the Rings
Biology, 's all.
I wouldn't change anything.
A green stuffed dog I called Grönis (Grön = Green). Probably had a favorite Action Force action figure also but I can't remember.
A young Christina Lindberg :Smug:
J-Dubya 777
It NEVER ends
1) Apocalypse Now, Resevoir Dogs, Hellrasier, Re-Animator, Spinal Tap
2) audio/video recording, hardcore fishing (do NOT read that as hard core fisting!!), astronomy, The wonderful world of MS operating systems.
3) religious hatred, putting the majority of the oil on the planet in unstable countries, environmental deterioration
4) GI Joe (the 12" action figures), Matchbox/Corgi cars
5) male: Don Rickles (someone please tape it!!
) female: Angel Boris

5. I don't know if anybody could stand to be around me that long. I could think of plenty of insights I would find interesting to gain from others' lives; for instance, being handcuffed to a huge celebrity to see how crazy their lives really are or a musician to see what their creative processes are all about. In the end though, I'd probably just want something zany and funny; so, I'll say Robin Williams.

I'm just going to go ahead and assume that was because it flew right over your head.

I would've been more than satisfied had there been a discernible plot or anything coherent to even follow.
"A pretentious, unfocused, and fussy mess..."

Or, a deeply piercing commentary on the nature of immortality, acceptance of death, and cherishing life while we have it. Or maybe you just weren't paying attention to that plot that was "too hard to follow".
