Logan's Fun Run


Logan's Run is one of my favorite movies of all time. It is pure faux-future perfection in every way. I used to like it a lot more but since I'm getting nearer and nearer to the crystal turning red (it's not red yet, a very light pink if anything....) I've become somewhat miffed. Oh, who am I kidding....it is a cinematic masterpiece without compare and Micheal York is a total babe.

That being said, not only is the story line super believable and deeply poignant *clears throat* the styling is outa this world.








And how foxy does Farrah look? She is such perfection it almost pains me.

Come in Future, do you hear me?????


Its 2011. HO-LY fuck. We are officially knee deep in the future (don't get all technical with me, yes I know every moment going forward is the future)or shit, which ever you prefer.

There are about a million-billion things that aren't lining up with the pasts prediction of the future. no world peace, no hover cars, no cleaning robots (roomba doesn't count yo)no moon vacations...We don't even have the gritty, dirty post apocalyptic future laid out by Blade Runner or Running Man! Where are my reality shows featuring criminals in obstacle courses pursued by American Gladiators??!!

I think the one largest issue I am having with the faux-future, as I like to call it, is lack of video wrist communication. WTF.

I have spent years (and I'm not joking) waiting for all my communication needs to be strapped to my wrist in a fashionable, yet functional piece of awesome. Don't tell me the technology doesn't exist, my freakin Ipod is so small it can be lost in the fifth pocket of a pair of jeans, and I don't need the computing power of a small nation like the iPhone. All I want is to look down at my wrist, all stealth like, and say "Great India? I'd like to place an order for delivery....."
