Yes, They Have No Bananas

If You Will Now Please Join Me For A Minute Of Not Mumbling
I've been postponing expressing my delight at once again figuring so large in major doings. And one of the good parts about expressing my delight here is that, in so doing, I will also be describing stuff that once again makes me appear, to the discerning eye, as somewhat impressive! Can there be any reason not to begin?

A number of people were involved in the making of the amazing, warm comedy, "30 Minutes Or Less," including film superstar, Jessie Eisenberg. I shall be focusing on this film's producer, Stuart Cornfeld, and the several significant things contained in this film that are inside-references for my benefit.

In blog articles I wrote as early as August 2008, I have made reference to Stuart Cornfeld, a person I kind of knew at a certain point in the '70s, and who is now Ben Stiller's producing partner, running "Red Hour Films" with Mr. Stiller. I mentioned back in 2008 how, when Stuart includes in his movies secret inside-references to the gorilla mask(s) in the 1973-74 CalArts student film, "Limbo", it is an inside-reference for my benefit. I've gone into in 2008 blog articles how, when Stuart includes in movies a character standing over another character knocked to the ground, it is an inside-reference to the time in 1975 I was electrocuted when "best boy" on an AFI film set at Santa Monica Beach, Stuart being the person who came over to me to see if I was still ticking. I also mention in 2008 how, when Stuart's "Tropic Thunder" showed the characters considering using an idea one learned from watching a TV show, this joke also started with me, or at the least was apropos of my using it.

As you might have by now guessed, I enumerate here these three Cornfeld-film elements because each can be found, as I essentially predicted in 2008, in the current Cornfeld film, "30 Minutes Or Less". A movie which had not even cast its stars until 2010. The blog statements of mine to which I refer were not only published as part of these blogs, but also as part of Volume 1 of my compiled blogs that I published in November 2009 at Archive.Org (which is the more binding copyright, as articles posted at this blogsite do not contain a binding timestamp other than being witnessed by those who read the articles).

In "30 Minutes," the instance of a character knocked to the ground, the flame-throwing sidekick of the villain (in the scene where an individual coming to his side as he lies on the ground is humorously presented as an important symbol of that person's humanity), regards someone who is considerably less than truly sympathetic. I therefore would want to emphasize here that this is no reflection on me, I don't use flame-throwers, plus, I'm a nice guy. Furthermore, if in writing a screenplay one happens to include a description of an automobile, which perfectly matches a car belonging to a neighbor, however, in your screenplay the car is owned by someone about to blow up the world, this should not be seen by rational people as an accusation against the real-life car owner in any way (the screenwriter might even be pleased with the neighbor who owns the car in real life, wanting to recommend that he be elected neighbor-of-the-month, and NOT wanting to accuse him of trying to blow up the world, seriously NOT wanting to make that accusation).

I also went to see "Rise of the Planet of the Apes," as it is in the realm of things commonly experienced by me, that if one movie currently showing has gorilla masks as an inside-reference for my benefit, another currently showing movie, if about gorillas, might also contain some interconnecting material deliberately placed. I do recognize that these are not the kinds of things that commonly occur in most people's realm of experience. In "Planet of the Apes" (which features John Lithgow, whose sister was my best friend's girlfriend in high school) we do not find someone who operates a flame-thrower knocked to the ground with someone immediately coming up to them to see what happened. No, here it's the person who operates a water hose, shooting not flames from a flamethrower but powerful bursts of water, aimed at the chimps. As in the moment from which the inside-reference to me originated, he is electrocuted and knocked to the ground. People gather over him.

Once again, I love chimps and don't use hoses to knock them down, and any other resemblance to persons etc. unless stupid people are looking for an excuse to bother me in which case - here's one! Put it all together, and you raise doubts about people gathering over me when I electrocute myself. Could this be part of their making a full-length movie about the character Tom Cruise played in "Tropic Thunder," which Stuart produced, yet a character which some say was based on Stuart just the same? I don't know - I cannot even say if Stuart drives the same car as that character.

Express Lane Now Open
I've often discussed how major Arabic terrorist acts have been preceded by "things left on my doorstep", if the significance of these clues is read correctly (readable after the occurrence). And I've also often discussed how I consider this related to my secret super-importance in relation to the most prominent living Jewish man, Spielberg (whether he chooses to exist in their world or not, can we know whether they count him as occupying a chess square?). I've often discussed how I see one primary obstacle to real investigations of these things left on my doorstep: the question, "Why YOUR doorstep?" As the answer requires much fact-checking (by way of my blog articles) in order to verify my assertion of secret super-importance in relation to Spielberg, McCartney, etc., and as this assertion of mine may appear to work against certain important people's "images" (to which financial empires are tied), this fairly obvious, cut-and-dried evidence from Stuart - most of his company's films are distributed by Spielberg's Dreamworks - may someday go a long way (I hope) towards someone being prompted to perform the investigations I seek. And if any of you major Arab terrorists are reading this, please note: You have too many items for the express lane! Go wait on the long line to be within earshot of Spielberg like everybody else! Nevermind.... will that be paper or plastic?
