| What I Think Of Now That I'm No Longer Focused On Cookies - |
You have to use a little imagination (OK, a lot!), but picture Kim Jong Un's head on this body. Pretty scary? Add a mools giswin (Korean Water Ghost) from "The Ring" and it could be a pretty frightening, no? And radioactive lasers - that it shoots out of it's eyes! Or it's spinnerets (butt), I haven't decided which yet.
My PS was supposed to attach the strongman's crazy head to this corpulent (yet remarkably speedy) body, but he says we don't have the right software. Whatever. My objective is to stick the dictator's head on the chubby (but FAST!) arachnid's body. I don't think that's asking a lot. But nooooo! He's "busy". Fine. I'll just do it myself, it's not an ILM project, right? I mean it's just basic cutting and pasting, right? Crude but effective. How hard can it be? Well, turns out C&P doesn't really work after all and I need to have a F/X expert (my PS) realize my vision and we'll have to get some new software. Whatever. I just want to adhere a crazy despot's head (Kim Jong Un) on a chubby black arachnid.
Once it's "on paper" I'll fine tune it, make it a ghost that can crawl out of your TV. Then I'll give it even more powers, I'll "Super" it. A really big boot couldn't crush this monster!
It occurred to me that as the real world becomes increasingly frightening, supervillains are less so. This mutant is scary but safe. That crazy dude terrorizing the planet? He's a real danger! It will take a real hero to vanquish that monster. Do we have one?
PS - My favorite CNN intrepid reporter, brave (or REALLY dumb) Will Ripley, the only western reporter allowed in North Korea is filing daily reports from Pyongyang!
Ripley's Believe-it-or-Not, we suppose, just the fact he reports from Pyongyang, is astonishing, his content must be screened/vetted somehow? I have colleagues who know how to use Adobe Photoshop to stick faces into a photo that weren't there originally. But not only is Photoshop very pricey, but using it is not intuitive and takes significant instruction. Stephanie is doing that kind of work for me just now, part time, maybe I can get her to generate such an image (reminds of The Fly with Vincent Price's head, no?). Although I would prefer to hand Trump over to some authentic Taiwanese (Formosan) Aboriginese headhunters who use to practice shrinking heads for cultural sport some centuries ago...
