Heck, if they can make a movie about Aeon Flux...

…well then, why can’t they do a film about The Art School Girls Of Doom?

I mean, really… Aeon Flux? Was there ever a more incompetent, useless secret agent? Not eye candy, not particularly good at the secret agent stuff, and could give Kenny from “South Park” a run for the money in the amount of ludicrous deaths she’s had.

And that heroin-chic, S&M dominatrix look? That is soooooo 20th century!

Anybody who was there during that epochal moment in pop culture history knows that the Art School Girls were the really hip, cool skit on “Liquid Television” and anyone who disagrees is just plain…

sad.

Oh dear! I meant to post this over in the Cafe Society board! How sad of me. :smack:

If she had died and mysteriously came back to life it would have improved the movie.

Looks like you fluxed-up. I’ll move this to Cafe Society for you.

I’d pay good money to see a Winter Steele movie.

I think the number was eight.

…I am still holding out for a “Winter Steele” movie… With puppets.

What was that? (I never saw Liquid Television when it was broadcast; I know Aeon Flux only from rented videos.)

The Art School Girls were two girls (actually guys in drag) who epitomized the “I-live-downtown-and-only-wear-black-and-only-listen-to-obscure-bands-and-therefore-I-am-soooo-much-hipper-and-cooler-than-YOU” cliche - art school students (natch), dressed all in black, berating everything & most everyone they encounter as beneath them. They sneeringly denounced everything that annoyed them (mostly everything) as “sad.” The girls (and the occasional other character they encountered) were live people, but they inhabited an otherwise totally animated (well drawn rather than real) world. They were a recurring segment on “Liquid Television.” The way the voiceover narrator announced the title “the…art…school…girls…of…DOOM!!!” was very kitschy and became kind of a catch-phrase around my school.

And that would make a good movie . . . why?

11

Well did you ever see DEBS?

Hey, I never said it would be a good movie. I just meant that if they’re gonna stoop to making full-length feature movies out of bizarre decade-old animated shorts, I was voting for this to get made next! I mean, it was amusing for the 2 1//2 minutes an episode that it appeared in, why wouldn’t it make a decent 120 minute long, multimillion dollar production?

(Perhaps I should note, I was merely being facetious when I started this thread. :wink: )
