It'll make more sense if you just watch Buffy.

Don't forget Hush. You want to see a master of his craft at work, watch Hush. Then tell me Buffy sucks. You realise of course that's a pun, yes?

TIL the fastest way to blow up a thread is to dis the vampire slayer.

Thanks, TH. I understand that many viewers enjoy escaping into the melodrama of fantastical tales; (I did enjoy the comically dramatic Greta Garbo in The Grand Hotel). But my particular brand of escapism from the stressors and sorrows of the world usually involves losing myself in something meditative and pastoral, (like ambient music), something abstract, or otherwise cerebrally engaging. I've had more than enough drama in my real life, thank you.

Perhaps if there were a Buffy version of Koyaanisqatsi...

Exploring something new is pretty engaging for the cereb though, isn't it? If anything you can use it as an opportunity to think up ways to tell Ori and Bat that they have gaping blind spots in their taste.

Do I understand correctly that you're encouraging me to watch something we know to be awful purely for the sake of chiding the source of the recommendation?

Because I might be on board with that.

I think I've just realized what is so appealing about all the -qatsi films - high on conceptualism, brilliantly minimalist scores, no characters, no dialog, no plot, no linearity... right there you have everything I desire from my entertainment.
