Someone posted that all receivers and amps sound the same, I disagreed and was jumped on by a lot of regulars. You are not allowed to have an opinion, post against what the regulars post, or anything. I have been banned for the forum in the past for posting a post 'disagreeable' with forum members. IT LACKS the SUPERIOR PHILOSOPHICAL REFLECTIONS of BATTLESTAR GALLACTICA, but there you go. Never mind TOP GUN Cold War grossness.īut in the realm of mostly harmless crap, THE ARK at least gives us a bit of multiculturalism, mixed nationalities, with less nationalism and some pretty good plot twists and character development…NO. Films are ideologically poisonous: The 1st elides real class and socioeconomic realities, and the other does the same, while deluding the audience about happy boy meets girl ending and American Exceptionalism. I loved PRETTY WOMAN and LOVE ACTUALLY….Both. Another set allows me to see beyond pathos/pleasure and CRITIQUE what I VIEWED! One set lets me view and enjoy without judgement. Students tell me I hate everything…NO! I read with 2 interpretive goggles: That said, lame and marginal crap is the Multinational Studio $#*! foisted on us like FAST AND FURIOUS 1,2,3,4,5 ad neauseum! But there is also dangerous sociopolitical crap like Michael Bey's sickening nationalist INDEPENDENCE DAY or that gross ARMAGEDDON,…Yes, America is the world's savior! SICK CRAP, but fun. But that don't make it good for you, no?! But smoked or inhaled 'crap' also feels good, why else would we do it?. I frequently call a lot of tv and film 'very harmful crap!' Now, crap can and frequently does 'feel good'. There's very harmful entertaining 'crap' There's marginally harmful entertaining 'crap'

In terms of THE ARK, I apply the following grading standard-at least as far as 'entertainment' is concerned: Thus, it's worth noting the same applies to mediums previously noted. Look, qualitative evaluations of tv, film, music, never mind definitions of 'Right' or 'Left' are, as philosopher-Linguist Richard Rorty noted, inherently idiosyncratic…One man's Catholic heretic is another's devoted Papist.

This post is directed at all appraisals of THE ARK.
