Goons and the "Blackadder" Series

[t***@yahoo.com.au]

Blackadder is that bloke who's the smart one yet he behaves like a bearded atheist (it's in fact a parody of intellectuals in an ignorant time). He's proper and decent really, and he's the only one acting like a sane intelligent person. This is the atheist ideal of the Renaissance when at the expense of a moron the logical one is calm with an idiot, and reasons in a just moral way (but moral in a mathematical logic way). For example Blackadder behaves as if an idiot has to be served because he'd rather live in his spoiled home than take crap from trivial matters. Divine madness, well that's the focus of the show, idiocy airbrushed to make it look more attractive, that's because it's a movie and it has to be attractive. Furthermore these are no ordinary idiots, they're the same ambitious people in history who conquered battles and fought the wars of religions. It's rather ostentatious, the whole reality of this sort of fiction is pretty realistic. These are revolutionaries in the pursuit of greatness, their work, and painstaking achievements, except it's in bad taste, therefore they're hacks who do lousy versions of greatness (pseudo-great), they do a crap job, and they use their money to buy ridiculous things. The dream of that peasant (Baldrick) is poking fun at folk people, ordinary people with simple pleasures, therefore his dream is a huge turnip, because he doesn't do material things like the atheists in his time, he has an ironic usage of the word 'pleasure', therefore he's modest and all he wants is a turnip.

It's easy for you to say that!

Stabbed through the Harris. Probably with the long spindly sort of
thing with a lump at the end. Fred convergence.

Much tighter than convergence in the Min!
