[edit] The least you need to know
My favorite director is Akira Kurosawa. I also like Kon Ichikawa and Stanley Kubrick. I am a big supporter of the Criterion Collection. For articles, I mainly work with Japanese films.
[edit] Projects
I have worked on Fires on the Plain and The Burmese Harp as projects. Fires on the Plain is now a start article, and The Burmese Harp actualy has a plot section now.
Fires on the plain and The Burmese Harp are in better condition then they were before, though, they are not standouts. Now I'm organizing help for the Yojimbo article. If you are interested in helping go to the Yojimbo article, then go to the disscusion section. It is named 'Is anybody still working on this?'
Just recently I joined the wiki project primates (even though I dont know how to put my name on the participants list). And I am sad to note they have not rated the Gorilla article.
Fires on the Plain (film) is in much better condition now that me and Dekkappai have worked on it. The reception section is the most improved thanks to Dekkappai for getting hold of some archival reviews. I have not given up interest in The Burmese Harp, and intend to make it start class soon.
I have also worked significantly on Onibaba. Still a stub, but better. I put a "reflist" tag on it. I also put a fairly good "Production" section. I have also recently included a small reception section.
I'va adopted Jigoku as a new project. I have put a pretty good "Production section" if some what trivial (it is still verifiable, however).
[edit] Articles I've created
This was an article I made on uncyclopedia:
Llmo (Pronounced L-mo) (2000-?) is the gay faggot cuosin of Elmo. He likes to spend time with his best friend Hitler. He/she (nobody really knows what sex he/she is) joined the nazi party recently, and started WWIII, under the premise that "Three's the charm." He/she is such a faggot that he looks at both gay and straight pornos at the same time.
[edit] Life
[edit] Early life
Though little is available about his/her early life, it is known that Llmo's mom was a whore, and that when she saw him, she exclaimed "I've created a monster!", or so the story goes. One theory suggests that he/she is actually a man with a mangina.
[edit] Gangs
Among other things known about him/her is he/she joined a Halo 3 gang called the Faggots, which challenged the mafia in real life. Unaware that they were not fighting online, most of them got killed in real life.
[edit] Adulthood
In 2020, Llmo joined the Nazi party, which at the time was sooo desperate, they even exceppted faggots like him/her. In 2022, he (at this time it was generally belived that he was, infact a man, though nobody, not even his faggot whores knew if he has a cock or a vagina) gained total controll of the nazi party and started world war III. Because he was too busy looking at gay porn, the war has been going down hill.
[edit] Notable battles that he fought in
[edit] Battle of faggot hill (2022)
He challenged the americans to fight in a hill made out of his own shit. Again, he was too gay to actually do anything, but the americans could not find him, and it is presumed he eat his own shit to escape.
[edit] Battle of Halo (2022)
He then challenged the americans to a game of halo, but instead the americans bombed most of his army. Llmos response: "That wasn't very nice." There has been no movement from Llmo's army since.
[edit] Controversy
He was accused of being a faggot, but nobody did anything.
[edit] Criterion newsletter
