Crap stuck in my brain

[specs]

I have two things replaying in my head over and over, and they've been there for the better part of two weeks:

1) Hotel California

2) That scene near the end of Akira where Kaori is accidentally crushed to death, in explicit detail, by the mutating Tetsuo.

Need help getting one or both things out of mind. Especially the latter. I'm starting to crave rare steaks, and this worries me.

[Monte]

rare steaks are delicious, nothing wrong with that at all! :tup:

[Will Gotti]

You need to go get your swoll on.

[Septimus Prime]

Eat a rare steak and stop being a pussy.

:rofl: It's not so much that the rare steak doesn't appeal to me. I likes meat. But that I want to eat one after that particular scene... I dunno. Am I going to start eating people next?

[Monte]

no human meat would taste terrible, why would you want to eat that instead of delicious, juicy, tender, sweet, rare steaks?

[DarthTrey]

mmmm beef, it's what's for dinner.

[Septimus Prime]

I want to eat a rare steak all the time—even right now.

ESPECIALLY right now.

[buyproduct]

The akira scene I usually get stuck in my head is the one tetsuo keeps getting headaches and imagines his guts falling out of his abdominal cavity. He desperately tries to scoop up and put them back in.

TEEEEETTTSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUOOOOOoooOooOOoO

Smoke some nice weed, and you'll forget the song. Then you'll be hungry and you can have a nice steak. Then smoke some more nice weed and you'll forget that too. Problem solved.

If you don't smoke weed because you're scared of tar in your lungs (like me) then use a vaporiser.

Pour some jelly on yourself.

So while we're on the topic can someone explain to me what the fuck this movie was about?

Also: I hate the fuckin Eagles, man.

[Okazaki III]

Mansteel formation. Never had that before?

[iwst99]

I had this fucking 16oz rib eye steak the other day...RARE...shit was soooo good...and my company paid so it was free....which made it even goooooder.

2) That scene near the end of Akira where Kaori is accidentally crushed to death, in explicit detail, by the mutating Tetsuo.

That part gave me nightmares when I was a kid. Poor sweet Kaori.:sad::shake:

[nmbr1krush]

1. listen to the song
2. watch that part of the movie on youtube
3. eat a raw steak

I had that stupid Alicia Keys song 'No one' in my head for 3 weeks because everywhere I went I heard it and it stuck like a parasite. So I listened to the full version and never thought about again it till just now.

Damn now I gotta listen to it.....................

it's actually KANNNEEEDDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaAAaA!


i won't summarise AKIRA for you. it is too complex for one post. you get a better understanding about the story when you read the manga.


good way to beat a catchy song is to hear another catchy song that you actually like. works for me at least.

[mcginnis]

:rofl: It's not so much that the rare steak doesn't appeal to me. I likes meat. But that I want to eat one after that particular scene... I dunno. Am I going to start eating people next?

Nah, I doubt it. People meat varies in taste from person to person. :lol:

[tsukihimeblood]

listen to 7 Nation Army from the white stripes. it has priority over just about any other song in getting stuck in your head.

like now, you are thinking about it. bum bum bum bum bum bum.. bum

[fishjie]

hotel california is the best song ever

but this is a random thread

So while we're on the topic can someone explain to me what the fuck this movie was about?Guy in a bike gang (Tetsuo...OOOOOOO!!!) gets into an accident involving an escaped government experiment (Takashi). Government officials detain the gang, and they discover that Tetsuo has latent psychic powers just like their previous experiments.

(The hypothetical explanation for this is that everyone holds a bit of power and knowledge left over from the creation of the universe, and that few are able to harness it. Or something.)

Tetsuo's friend (Kaneda) falls in with some terrorist activists whose goal is to undermine the government project responsible for abducting Tetsuo.

Tetsuo is attacked in his room in the night by the other experimental subjects (they look like shriveled little kids), which prompts him to escape the facility. He quickly learns to use his hidden abilities.

Mad with power, Tetsuo goes on a rampage, during which he discovers the remains of a previous government test subject--Akira. He ends up confronting Kaneda, who realizes that the only way to help his friend is to stop him.

Tetsuo loses control of his powers and begins to mutate into a giant fucked-up glob thing that swallows everything and everyone in its path. It is here when Akira returns. Akira is apparently a boy who was once like Tetsuo, but whose physical body was dismantled and placed in preservation after causing the disaster at the beginning of the movie.

Akira uses his own power to transport the expanding Tetsuo elsewhere, destroying much of Tokyo in the process. This scene much resembles the opening of the film.

Wherever Tetsuo ends up, his expansion appears to result in the creation of a new universe, implying that this is at least one ways that universes are created.



And that's Akira.

That kitten doesn't help any... cute as it may be.

But late-night, Akira is good background noise whenever I put together a model kit. My see-through Char's Zaku II will now share white shadow's recurring nightmare of seeing Japanese girls getting crushed by mutating walls of organs.

Is Akira Elfen-Lied level violent?

[BEWD]

Akira's not that violent a film imo, I mean there's a few spots(the SOL incident, the aforementioned Kaori being turned into hamburger helper scene, as well as the guts incident, and a few other spots) but it's not all ridiculously over the top or anything like say, Violence Jack.

[BananaWeed]

Hotel California is one of the best songs of all time. Medium rare for me.

[specs]

That part gave me nightmares when I was a kid. Poor sweet Kaori.:sad::shake:

I first saw Akira on Canadian movie channel "Superchannel" that is no longer around. I was about 12. And though I held the remote control in my SHAKING hand, I couldn't turn away. I had to see more. My younger brother and cousins, about 5-ish, watched as well. We were all scarred for life. :rofl:

To this day, though I've seen FAR more violent stuff in fantasy, and some pretty gruesome stuff IRL, the scene where Tetsuo starts mutating and crushes Kaori still made my hand shake, as Akira was on Canadian animation channel Teletoon last weekend. That was when I suddenly craved the prior-mentioned steak.

An aside: it was the NEW dub. Better than the old. But, though I love dubs and hate the typical anime fan attitude that dubs are trash, Akira is one thing that has never been dubbed right IMO. I'd like to see the movie in Japanese some time.

:lol: Cute.
Is Akira Elfen-Lied level violent?

Maybe. Elfin Lied also had people-ripping and whatnot, but Akira's violence seems more powerful, unlike Lied's more "violent for the sake of being violent" approach.

[Hellion]

So whenever girls get smashed you think of steak?
I think the common denominator here is eating.
Next girl you get, knock yourself out.

edit: While listening to Hotel California

I first saw it randomly on Sci Fi Channel, actually the first scene I ever saw was when Kaneda was shooting the laser at Tetsuo in the junk site and the power failing, when Kaneda threw the gun down and said "DAMMIT!" I knew I wasn't watching any ordinary cartoon.

I basically had to wait several months before it came on Saturday Anime on SciFi again to record it and be obsessed for the next 2 years straight.



Pointless violence of M.D. Geist still doesn't hold a candle to Akira in terms of humanistic violence where you fear for the mortality of certain people.

M.D. Geist was like so pointless, you might as well just commit suicide if you lived in that world.
