"Onward to War" - new video - discouraging, disgusting, demented, etc.
http://www.terminalproduct.com/onwardtowar.rm

"Onward to War" - excerpt from "the paranoia show"

right click and save as for yet another rough cut torn too early from the editorial womb. This one is pretty gross, graphic content and disturbing Dick Cheney doings. Not to mention whiny vocals!

Even sicker is the song was done spring of 2002 - sad that even my most paranoid bleatings at the time came true many times worse. Cassandra Complex is no good, you know.



and yeah, that's the song from the Marx Bros' "DUCK SOUP" - funny and relevant, so go see it!

1. with more Rumsfeld than you ever wanted!


I think the samples on that were from some demented press conference when he went into detailed babble on what to do if the moon were a threat.

His meds have since been adjusted.

4. a lot of it is filler
Edited on Thu Oct-30-03 12:40 PM by thebigidea
until I can pick up the 16mm film from the lab and slip it into place. They have a nasty tendency to spring bills for $1000s on me.

(shakes fist)

5. perhaps
it has a "feverish" aura befitting the subject matter and it appeals to my warped aesthetic. I am sure you will let us know when it is finished. :)

6. heh - that and the fact that it was assembled in a literal fever
Edited on Thu Oct-30-03 12:54 PM by thebigidea
had a flu for two weeks, was downright demented for a few days. Glad its so blatant!

Yeah, when its done I'll probably scream about the DVD for a few days, take a long nap, start 34908535 new projects, and disavow any connection to it immedeately.

13. Quite disturbing
But I didn't expect anything less from you. I think the images of the wounded Iraqi children floating on and off the screen will haunt me in my dreams.

What video editing software are you using?

14. yeah, that stuff is pretty intense
one minute, "ha ha very funny" - the next, the stomach turns. I showed it to some friends who were more horrified by the masks than the murder.

software: avid or premiere, whatever is handy.

15. Why were they more horrified
Edited on Fri Oct-31-03 02:10 AM by prolesunited
by the masks?

BTW: It's the juxtaposition of the humor and the horror that makes it even more disturbing, but I'm sure that was no accident.

16. Apathy?
Dunno. Another viewer thought the Dick Cheney dildo bit was too much, but killing children was ok since they were "Far away."

Shrug.

17. Personally
I am much more offended by violence than sex, but that's just me. What was your completion date again?

18. one would hope dead kids would be more offensive than a plastic penis
completion: a month or so, I'm guessing. Dunno, it seems to have eaten me alive.
