Nicholas Rombes, editor of the book New Punk Cinema, and author of an upcoming 33 1/3 book on the Ramones, has been scratching an itch over at his film blog, Digital Poetics. I get the sense that he's circling around a longer article, but in the meantime each time he tosses out a little nugget, he just gets my mind spinning. Last month it was about viewing the new X-Men movie as a surrealist work, (which I mentioned back then) and now he's back on the topic again, stretching beyond the one movie, bringing Barthes into the conversation, and basically just beginning to dig a little deeper. Sooner or later he's going to spit it all out at once and it's going to rock me a little.
