Ægrus Somnium

so as I was getting out of the shower I was thinking of what to wear today, shorts or pants, it’s a bit chilly, then a shirt came to mind, my Clockwork Orange based “Moloko Vellocet” shirt, and then I started thinking about how so many people dislike the film and how they’re decision to dislike the film is mislead in a way, yeah that’s how my mind bounces around, but here’s why people are mislead. like, hoy shit I used a period, ok, anyways, like most movies they are based on bookies, so was A Clockwork Orange by Kubrick, by herein lies the problem his movie was based on the american version of the book NOT the true version of the book, the true version of the book has 21 chapters, the american version has 20, when the book came to america they decided to remove the last chapter to better suit the american audience, every other place in the world that got the book had the full book, now if you’ve seen the movie and not read the book, or read the book before we got the revised edition you know it ends with Alex still up to his old games, in the real ending his with his new “Droogs” and see’s his old gang grown up and moved on and realizes his wasted his whole life destroying things and people, and just gets up and leaves trying to think of how to move on and change, he finally get’s it and wants to live a real life, a bit  of a turn around for old Alex and a bit of remorse if you look, to me anyways, so there is your misconception, you were mislead because publishers in the states didn’t want america to have him grow up and change in the end

now, something a bit deeper about the ending, america is shit now, excuse me for saying so but let me explain, we coddle everyone now, kids can’t play games someone wins because another’s feelings may get hurt, no playing cops and robbers and making a gun out of your fingers in kindergarten, that may lead to a life of crime, wear pillows on the sides of your head in case you fall and go boom, now look at the way it was when that book came out in the 60’s, they took out the fucking chapter where he learns his lesson and left him as a villain, a rapist killer because america would like it better, I’m not saying that’s what we need but when did everything need to be pre-chewed and spit in our mouths so we shouldn’t choke
