My eyes are no one shade of color, they are a hypnotic starburst capable of stopping and or starting human wars. While what people see looking into them may inspire spontaneous panty combustion, what I see looking out is more mucked up than THE FOG remake. So, LASIK it is. In two days I will be going under the optical knife.
I’m going all laser - no razor blade flap cutting for me - so there are fine odds I’ll be A OK, but, for the sake of argument, let us operate under the assumption that I will go blind on Thursday following a FINAL DESTINATION-ized chain of mishaps leading to a broom handle turning the machine’s power knob to GigaLaser. That means whatever I watch on Wednesday will be the last movie I ever see. And I gotta tell ya’, there wasn’t too much of a debate going on. I know full well what I would love it to be.
The Oscar Nominated STARSHIP TROOPERS may just be the last movie I’ll ever see. I declare with a clear conscious that were you to hop in with Doc Brown, kick it up to 88 miles per hour and ask my younger self what the greatest movie ever made was, there would be zero hesitation. While I’ve added on candles to the cake, I’ve knowledged up enough to realize TROOPERS is not the pinnacle of cinema, but it’ll take more than taste to peel the cold, cardboard, talentless hand of Johnny Rico from heart.
Any takers?
LOL
I didn’t know you had eye problems. G’luck with the surgery. I’m sure you’ll be fine. Or your newly-adjusted eyes will gain the ability to see unspeakable horrors all around you. Either way, it should be an interesting experience.

Reading the things you write is like eating a stick of butter.
Without contacts or glasses all I can see is the big E. On Friday I will be able to see you through this monitor.
Hide.
You inadvertently reference the movie I would choose as my last. Hint: Not The Fog or Final Destination
Back to the Future?
Of course. Frankly I don’t understand how that isn’t everyone’s choice.
You could pick a lot worse movies before going in for eye surgery than Starship Troopers.
Like Zombi 2. That probably wouldn’t be a good choice.
Good luck! 8^)
I’d recommend something like the fountain. Little action and the story needed more work, but think they undercut aronofsky’s budget on that one. One of the most beautifully shot movies I’ve ever seen though.
You should pick a terrible movie as your last. That way, if the surgery goes wrong you can say the movie was so bad it made you tear your own eyes out.
I wouldn’t say combustion….
;)
Chris’ comment, “or your newly-adjusted eyes will gain the ability to see unspeakable horrors all around you” is perfect for your next mewvie, Peter.
props to chris for my next movie
