I don't even know how many times I have watched this film. I just love The Cremator, it has everything I expect from a great film: it has unique style, it's smart, it's disturbing and sick, it's funny...

Not as good as the first 12 Rules For Life, but good enough for me. I think the most interesting part of this book were the case analyses he gave from real lived experience, especially the one about a man who had lived such a safe life he couldn't understand that adult human beings could be mean and violent, so Jordan gave some of the most traumatizing history and psychology books he could think of to make him understand the darker side of life.
From what I got out from this is that too much safety and comfort is really harmful for mental health.

One of many Disney-clones from the 90's. This time it's a dumb environmental film with Tim Curry as a singing poison cloud, and for some insane reason his song is highly erotic to the point it got censored.

In many ways this pioneered the Renaissance era Disney musicals, but I don't think it's nearly as good as those other films, mostly because the main character is such an empty husk without any arc, she just wants stuff and gets it without any visible change.
It makes me laugh that Alan Menken, the Disney's very own Mozart who also started his partnership with the company here, was hired because the producers loved Little Shop of Horrors, which he also worked on. I mean the same guy who did The Dentist Song also wrote all those annoying Disney sing-a-alongs, that is just really funny.
