Silent Servants...

... of the Used, Abused, and Utterly Screwed Up.

A Secular Franciscan looks at the world...
with a more jaundiced eye than ever...
and lots of ellipses for you to fill in the missing text...

A film


I only plan to watch when it comes out discounted in the music/dvd stores for $2.99...

Long Count

"Suffering through 2012, Roland Emmerich’s take on a Mayan prophecy"
Most critic's reviews I've read have been of the same mind as this author regarding the film...

--aside--
I wonder what the result would be if a really good director filmed something like Samuel R. Delany's Dhalgren? A classic - and they'd probably ruin that, too. Very sad. I really enjoy apocalyptic literature, I just hate it when directors ruin the genre with their films. Sorry for the interruption...
--end aside--

Still, and remember this, Mr. Zaitchik really doesn't like this film. And he's not the only one...
