What I learned from this movie...

The gay dating scene has not changed at all in the past 14 years since this movie was made. While I admit I love sappy gay dramas, I liked this movie because it felt raw and real. It showed the true side to gay dating; that it isn't all about happy endings and all that stuff. I guess that's why I appreciate what Araki is trying to convey: that this generation is doomed. All this generation cares about is sex, marriage at a young age, pregnancy, drugs, and drinking. I also get kinda depressed when I see what he tries to say is true but there's no hiding the truth.

I've only seen 3 films of Araki's (Totally *beep* Up, Doom Generation, and Mysterious Skin) and from what I've seen I appreciate what he has to say. It's the truth. I'm looking forward to whatever film he decides to release next.

In 2008 the gay dating scene is still the same, if not worse.

At least that's what I gather from this film as I was only 15 when it came out and didn't know anything about dating, let alone being gay.

11 minutes and it's already full of zionistic bull$hıt propaganda. Can't you just stick to the subject and make a good movie? Thank you, jewi$h producers.
