TV rots your brain, kids
Nov. 7th, 2002 12:37 pmTonight's dream sequence featured your favorite media icons and mine in a rousing adventure involving yours truly and her trusty partner dispatched on a mission to save the world.
You are allowed to show your surprise.
Miranda and I were sent forward in time to witness the evils that a GOP-controlled government will wreak upon our world (I kid you not).
Joey was our guide through the post-apocalyptic New York, which had basically become a war-ravaged military state but one where citizens were "encouraged" to go about their business normally so the facade was complete, but the underbelly was seedier than you could imagine.
There was a scuffle with hotel staff that involved my kicking ass and the protection of a red backpack crucial to changing the world order and getting us back to our time (I want to say there was a whole chase sequence when our people sent us into the past first that we narrowly escaped and this was our only hope).
There was Lionel Luthor creepiness, who, naturally, was masterminding the whole thing. But then, Eminem led the cast of RENT in a rousing new improvved verse of La Vie Boheme to vanquish the Magnificent Bastard and save us all.
Uhm, yes.

Oh yes, Eminem in RENT. It's just as delightfully incongruous as the notion would seem. He was rapping, but somehow still maintaining the integrity of the musical genre. That boy's got great things in his future, he does.
