Wow, some threads never die. I've always found this one interesting in a social-experiment, human-observation kinda way. Yeah, yeah we all love Martin Denny and we all like to drink rum and hang out together blah, blah. But maybe -- just maybe, for this whole tiki/exotica movie we live in to be a little more interesting, we want - no, we need some kind of shared conflict, a villian, an antagonist to face off with our collective protagonist. Rocky-Apollo Creed, Red Sox-Yankees, Superman-Lex Luther, Metallica-Megadeth, whatever. Maybe Jimmy Buffet and the Parrotheads fill that gap for us? Or maybe I'm taking that screenwriting class way too seriously..... |
