I know this maybe old hat but I did a search on the topic and found no threads dedicated to it.. so I finally got around to watching the whole thing for the first time... I wasn't quite blown away... the promo art, conceptual art etc is far more mindblowing than what's on the "film" I am using quote unquote because it is still essentially a music video... if this is a short film then almost all of Cunnigham videos with pre/inter/postludes are technically "short films" Come on my selecta and Windowlicker instantly leap to mind... discuss |

yes, nothing too great about it..looks more like a music vid rather than a film, not that it makes any difference though. there was so much hype around it, my hopes went sky high, so i was a bit disappointed by it. i didn't watch it more than 3 times all together. |

One or two great shots and sequences, but a lot of what seemed like fill to me.......... not an instant classic. |

the only thing i liked about rubber johnny was the credits at the end... that's it! |

Now that you mention it.. the opening credit with broken typewriter is kinda groovy.. as is the sequence where the music starts, that close-up of tongue flipping to baaaaaaaaaaaaassssss.... |

ever since I read for the first time the thread title, I thought it was a poll about rubber johny onion ?¿?¿ |

I like Chris, but this was a horrible purchase. The artwork toward the back of the book is sooo bad (the drawing of little child richard in sneakers?? I paid for this peachee folder doodle?) Chris has an amazing ability as an editor (and his robotics are very nice), but jesus, *every* video has water on the floor and he points the lights in the camera. Nice trick. Now let someone else sit in the director's chair and stick to chopping up the footage. The first minute or so of Rubber Johnny film (where his dad is speaking to him) is the only bit of genius here. |

wasn't too special. |

he would be a good director of photography too, but only for that one look he's got (and it has its moments) |

The original little clip for Drukqs was great, it didn't needn't need draggin out and becoming a joke five years later. Who wasn't appalled when, after the intro and the expectation suddenly it's "rubber johnny" dancing in his wheelchair. Yeah, that's not just embarrassing... at all. |

For those who haven't seen it . I feel sorry for the people that bought it. |

i made a poll about it |
||||||||
|
|

|

the silliest thing out of the whole endeavour is, as has been noted already, calling it a "short film" instead of "music video". Warp Films are releasing another one soon, aren't they? I remember reading something in an interview. why not wait 10 years and collect all six 5-minute "short films" and put them on one dvd. |

this thread is telling me so much more than that poll. |

i liked rubber johnny a lot. i don't know if I'd pay for it, but I only pay for DMT, opiates, LSD, audio gear, and fines. while it might not have been superamazingfilmoftheyear the world is a better place because of it. anyone who has sat in a dark bedroom on LSD and a laser pen should understand the brilliance of a retarded wheelchair bound basement recluse who does laser battle with his chihuahua. the splats against the screen were very clever, and i thought some of the dancing was pretty darn cool. we seem to have higher standards here at xltronic for electronic media.. have to wait for the world to catch up before we'll be seeing any "Casa Blanca" of the electronic aesthetic |

It was some retard flailing his arms around. Even as a music video it sucked. |
