We can all agree on one thing: seeing Murphy lobotomized and chief hugging him was deeply sad

The actress ends up playing an actual religious authoritarian in Star Trek DS9. Disguising herself behind the veneer of moral purity to hide her corrupt lust for power, conceded self importance, and oppressive dogmatism. Even fooling herself into believing that she's not the true villain of the series who's even more hated than Gul Dukat.

@@noskills6251 You can't kill her, that's the point of the movie. If she was human McMurphy would have popped her head right off her neck when he tries to hug her. She's a 7'3" shapeshifting lizard who's eaten all the illuminati see. No need to thank me, I know I have the patience of Buddha.
I like when Randle finds out "Chief" Bromden can really speak. His excuse for not speaking was no one ever spoke to him.

Best part of the whole movie was a prequel to Toal Recall being outside Mars without a helmet lol! Yessss! Patrick Stewart Approved Warp 9 bitchez!
I think something he missed at the end there, though he touched on it a touch with the mention of them gambling, is that the patients are more free than before because McMurphy took away the source of Ratched's power: her voice. Notice how she's almost more docile in the end. She's less authoritative and thus the patients don't take her quite as seriously.
Ratchet also shows emotion when he unexpectedly calls her by her first name, Mildred (and not Miss Ratchet). Apparently this incident was not scripted and her blushing was completely spontaneous.

With this episode, I think 'Earthling Cinema' has finally found its beat. The editing style, the gags, the analysis - it all feels together and right. I can't really explain it, but keep building on what you're doing here - you've got something that can meet the promise of 'Thug Notes.'

I love this fucking movie. It tackles deep philosophical questions (What is crazy? Why can't I X? Where does authority come from? What is the point?) without ever feeling preachy and packs an incredible emotional punch... I should probably read the book.
I lost it at the baby horse part.
What about his resistence to the established, his love for freedom. His appreciation for love, friendship and the achievement of beeing who you really want to be as well as the courage to get it. Of course the most invasive and destructive imposer of the system, the head nurse, as insignificant and evil as all.of her kind, at the end, destroys that wich can't understand! Great disturbing fun movie!
I tip my hat to the producers and writers. I really enjoyed this. very funny. made me laugh out loud. the alien seems to not understand us, and yet, somehow, at the same time, he does.
I cracked up when you said "shamelessly steals his escape plan" I also cracked up at "he tried hugging her neck to death"
"The Kevorkian treatment" hahahahahaha Why am I crying now...

I've heard of a particular earthling documentary film about the humans' encounter with a charity event held by the chulians when they were on that educating lesser developed species kick. I believe it's called independence day? Perhaps you'd be willing to direct a review of it to all of us who lack the means to acquire and view this artifact.

Am I the only one who sees Chief Bromden as the title character.... In old english to "Fly" meant to Escape something, plus it's an American Indian name. The Chief escaped, he literally "flew the nest" and he's American Indian. He was ultimately the title character of the film.

Awesome analysis! There are things I have spotted in that movie but I never figured out about the fountain representing the establishment. McMurphy throwing some water from that fountain on a Monopoly game. What a coincidence! Also did you notice one of the female nurse whose working there... The south american small woman. She almost never talks. She's a kind of minion ghoul working under the totalitarian control of Miss Rachel. Same as all her afro american coworkers.
