陈凯歌已经起诉胡戈！
如果新浪网上的这条新闻不是假新闻的话，我认为这可能是中国电影界最无耻的一个举动。人们也许看到了，当陈凯歌这些年一直拍不出一部能超越《霸王别姬》的电影，并屡屡遭到媒体的质疑时，这个中国第五代导演的代表人物显得有些名不副实，他着急啊，于是，他处心积虑，用2.5亿的投资，希望能换回他的名声和地位，证明陈凯歌这个名字不是浪得虚名，所以，在他看来，《无极》完美无瑕，一尘不染，不能容得任何人的挑剔。在影片上映之前，有人问他这部电影的票房可能不好时，他居然暴怒了。
鲁迅在《立论》里写的那个故事，在陈凯歌身上活灵活现的体现出来了，一个有如此心态的人，容不得已个普通观众拿他去开玩笑，你们觉得他能导出好电影吗？他说：“我觉得人不能无耻到这样的地步。”他是在说胡戈还是在说自己？我看了一下新浪网上网民的留言，这一次，网民出奇的意见一致，这是新浪网自创办以来网民意见最一致的讨论，这说明了什么？人民支持胡戈。
恶搞之风的兴起，恰恰说明了一个现象，那就是人们对主流文化的怀疑和厌恶，对强加于自己身上的东西之无奈，中国人够可怜的了，一年只能看到几部国产电影，没有任何选择，对主流文化中的虚假、恶俗感到无奈，但是，人们没有话语权，这种无奈的结果就是他们只能用解构的方式去“糟蹋”建构好的东西。北京奥运吉祥物结果出来后，连设计者韩美林都感到无奈，老百姓更无奈，你们凭什么设计出那么难看的吉祥物？我不欢迎“你丫挺”的还欢迎谁？
当《一个馒头引发的血案》出来后，它标志着民众的解构艺术达到一个新高度，活该你陈凯歌该倒霉，不拿你解构拿谁解构。我留意了这个视频文件在网络和传统媒体上的反应，它让人们感到兴奋，甚至让人们感到解气。为什么？因为那些被骗到电影院里看《无极》的人很多感到很失望，你说一个公司的白领、一个餐馆服务员、一个公交车售票员看完之后感觉有上当的嫌疑，他们会怎么办？他们又能怎么办？他们没有任何办法。而如果他们看到《馒头》之后，心中的恶气会消除一些，心里会稍微平衡一些，老百姓还有什么更高的需求么？没了，他们仅仅是需要那一声发自肺腑的“哈哈大笑”，就够了。这么低的要求你陈凯歌都不允许，你以为你是谁？说实话，当一个人看了《无极》，不管是捧它还是扁它都已无任何意义，那些话都无法改变事实，而对于更多没有话语权的人来说，总有解构的权利吧。
不知道在美国的陈凯歌是否看过《惊声尖笑》，它对前恐怖片的解构让人看起来饶有兴致。不知道在美国的陈凯歌是否知道一个叫阿尔·扬科维奇的家伙，他专门以篡改别人的歌曲为己任，把那些最流行的歌曲填上歌词，出成唱片，让人哭笑不得。陈先生，您知道吗？包括美国的天皇天后级别的巨星都伸长了脖子等着扬科维奇去解构他们的歌曲，觉得那是一种光荣。而您对一个手无寸铁却把您给挠痒痒了的胡戈起诉，看来您已经不知道什么叫痛了，没有痛觉得艺术家还能创作艺术吗？
照理说，米哈伊·罗姆应该起诉以崔永元为代表的中央电视台新闻评论部，因为他们把《列宁在十月》这么一部伟大的影片糟改成那个样子，是对列宁同志的不尊重，是对社会主义的不尊重，您陈凯歌跟列宁比，是否更伟大呢？
我也觉得，“人不能无耻到这个地步。”而且我相信，这句话将成为2006年最有代表性的“声音”。

Inspired by my friend's Coke Chicken Wings, I advanced such combination of western culture (cola culture) and eastern food one step further to fulfill the obssession of meat and thirst of pepsi both at the same time, not really perfectly, but rather creatively (not innovatively, I'm not the inventor, I'm just an improver). the end result is luckily tasty. Here's the recipe if you'd like to try out your curiosity.
Green Onion, Ginger, Pepsi, Chicken Legs, Teriyaki Source, Soy Source
dice the green onion; slice the ginger; skin the chicken legs ( you don't wanna get fat, here we're introducing some delectable food and healthy :p), leave some cuts on the chicken legs, both sides;
heat the pan, till you see the pan's hot enough, pour some oil (not much), and pan-fry the green onion together with your ginger for a bit, then add the chicken legs, turn the legs over and over again for a while, and pour some Teriyaki and Soy Source, and pour in lots of Pepsi till the legs are briefly covered by the Pepsi.
then turn the power to lower, wait for like around 20 minutes, bingo, you should have some nice looking chicken legs, although I'm not sure if they're edible yet :P
try it out :) you might love it....

Your Life Analysis:
Life: Your life rating is a score of the sum total of your life, and accounts for how satisfied, successful, balanced, capable, valuable, and happy you are. The quiz attempts to put a number on the summation of all of these things, based on your answers. Your life score leaves room for improvement. You can make changes to improve your trouble areas, and this will bring you greater satisfaction. Focus on your weakest points and set about to change them. Do not delay your happiness and success.
Mind: Your mind rating is a score of your mind's clarity, ability, and health. Higher scores indicate an advancement in knowledge, clear and capable thinking, high mental health, and pure thought free of interference. Your mind score is within a healthy zone. This means you have achieved a level of mental balance and harmony consistent with living a healthy, happy life. Continue doing what works, and keep your focus. In our fast-paced world, mental clutter is all too common. Be vigilant in maintaining healthy mental function.
Body: Your body rating measures your body's health, fitness, and general wellness. A healthy body contributes to a happy life, however many of us are lacking in this area. Your body score is fairly average, which means there is room for improvement. Keep a focus on your physical health. Protect your body as it is your most valuable physical asset. Nutrition, stress reduction, and exercise are key.
Spirit: Your spirit rating seeks to capture in a number that elusive quality which is found in your faith, your attitude, and your philosophy on life. A higher score indicates a greater sense of inner peace and balance. Your spirit score is relatively high, which means you are rewarded by your beliefs. Spirituality is clearly important to do. Never let it slip, and continue to learn and grow. Friends/Family: Your friends and family rating measures your relationships with those around you, and is based on how large, healthy, and dependable your social network is. Your friends and family score is not bad but can be improved. Maintain your current social net, while you try to expand it. Try new things and form new friendships. You will be rewarded greatly.
Love: Your love rating is a measure of your current romantic situation. Sharing your heart with another person is one of life's most glorious, terrifying, rewarding experiences. Your love score is very low, indicating trouble. There is love out there for you. Seek the advice of wise people on how to go about finding it. Do not lose hope.
Finance: Your finance rating is a score that rates your current financial health and stability. You have a rather good financial score, which is not all that common these days. Keep doing what works. Avoid common pitfalls and save for the future. You will be glad you did.
