Flushed away!!!
Friday, November 03, 2006
ever imagined yourself being flushed away by a toilet bowl, and finding yourself caught in a completely new world?an interesting thought, huh?
i wouldn't mind that, given that we are all going through torture now, and that we had to critisice the British education system in our exam paper, when our markers are british themselves. u get what i mean.
after torturing myself with PROPAGANDA today, i decided to catch a movie, flushed away. its an animation which speaks of a mouse being flushed away by a toilet bowl and finding himself in a new whole filled with mice, and more mice, coupled with frogs, toads, and...slugs.
besides finding a grp of animals which could speak, and slugs which could sing, there's a 'fight' going on between the rodents and the amphibians, which makes the film entertaining. but behind all this facade, the producer has laid a foundation of sarcasm in the most intelligent manner.
by claiming that anything can happen if the british team could lead the world cup finals against germany (which is not the case), the producer is actually making fun at the british soccer team. the french is then brought into the picture (the frog is french and the toad is british), and the producer makes fun of the relationship between the 2 nationalities, being more critical of the british than the french. and mind u, the producer is british(at least the names are british!)
n the result. the whole cinema roared. but it was more on the visual part than anything else.
sadly, not all understood fully the sarcasm the producer was trying to get at. i'm not trying to show off, but i, who isn't even 16, can understand what the producer's intention was when adults can't. i was pretty embarrassed when i was the only one laughing at certain parts of the film. i guess that speaks of how high the literacy level of Singapore is, despite the emphasis on education and speaking CORRECT english.
well, it seems to me that life is but an irony. things have their twists and turns, and the thing which you least expect to happen may just pop up the next moment. so why bother so much, just enjoy every moment of your life, and get FLUSHED AWAY!!!
