the aliens had subliminal messages hidden in billboards and poo poo but you couldn't see them without the super-special glasses. how the gently caress were people influenced by that? they couldn't see the alien faces, so they couldn't see the subliminal messages. sheesh.

also why does every wrestler in a movie have to do wrestling moves on people? no one suplexes people in real life, roddy

because you do see it on some level op. you know its fake and wrong and thats why you feel empty inside and your enjoyment of these capitalist products is ultimately unfulfilling. like so much cardboard in a tired slave life of the same poo poo every day

Because if they could see them, they wouldn't be subliminal, op. That's the definition of the word.

did you even watch the movie, dumbass? the sheeple only see the regular billboards because there's some satellite dish in LA that's sending out a signal to mess with people's brains. once "rowdy" roddy piper blows up the dish at the end, everyone's brains are unclouded and and people can see the billboards and aliens for what they really are.

thus the bimbo riding that alien dick is all weirded out, and he's like, "What's wrong, baby? Why'd you stop?"

the "planted messages" ARE the billboards. the regular ads over them only exist in people's minds as long as the signal is being broadcast.

which is all besides the point that meg foster has loving creepy eyes.

speaking of creepy eyes, i have always really liked your avatar. where's it from?

It's not subliminal, the billboards and all that other poo poo doesn't really exist it's some kind of projection coming from the satellite transmitter. That's why when Rowdy Roddy blows up that thing you see all the billboards and stuff the way they really are (only in color because it's not through the glasses anymore).

Now, how that's possible is anyone's guess. I mean, do the people printing the magazines, selecting layouts and all that, are they not real? Are there not actual people designing the billboards and putting them up, and what did the sheets of billboard paper they were gluing up look like? It'd be like 90% blank white space. Are you telling me that all the details like the people in the billboard, the company name and logo, all that is just a mental dream-projection or whatever? Seems pretty dubious, if you ask me.
