<sub>[ Hey, gang. It's your monthly dose of Jake English broadcasting here on the network through the flow of everything going on. Been while since we've seen him, hasn't it? He's blissfully unaware of any sort of dreaming that went on during comas. Yeah, oblivious as par usual. There is only one thing he has his mind set on today.
For those who don't know, this kid is roughly about sixteen and carries a weird accent. It isn't too important, but the best way to describe it would be bullshit Australian.
Anywho, he's in just a plain white tee shirt he managed to salvage back during one of the station trips, along with shorts he risked his life to get. And it appears he's something some sort of space chips. Who knows where that came from.

A few simple scars cover his face from his mask horror that happened a few weeks ago and he's been doing nothing much besides isolating himself. ]</sub>

Salutations.
_{[ His voice seems to be heavy and lacking its typical enthusiasm (though that is apt to change.) His hair appears a bit tousled, and it's evident he hasn't really been taking care of his hygiene upkeep.
Look, it's almost like he's growing facial hair; the best a guy of his age could muster. What a dunderhead. ]}

I hate to be a bother to you lot on the network, what all being pried from your tidy homes and sucked into this ringarosie of spaceship bullshittery. Imposing on your chinwags and chit chatters, I have something of vital importance to ask you.
_{[ ..And there's a pause of suspense. ]}

I..
have been here for what feels like a year, but that probably isn't true. The date I remember upon arrival was April 2012. I still haven't a heaven to betsie's idea of what the current date is, whether or not a missed my 16th birthday or not, or anything. In any case, if my birthday has passed or is to come, all I really want is...

_{[ Here it comes. He sounds desperate. ]}

A movie. And not just any movie, I want--

_{[ A breath. ]}

Weekend at Bernie's. More than anything.
_{[ what. ]}
--And I am aware that some of you get things and trinkets in your locker! Mayhaps you can help me out here if you have it? I am willing to do anything I can to get a hold of this movie. My skills and interests are the following:

Gun shooting, ive been carrying all sorts of guns since i was a child.
Fisticuffs.
Minor mechanics.
Bones and dead shit.
Archaeology.
Movies and movie trivia.
Adventuring.
Blue girls.
Swimming.
Wrestling.
Drinking, though i feel as if cannot hold it well.

I will sacrifice anything I can muster for this, or any Earth movie, especially adventure/action movies! If I'm not completely satisfied in this manner, by Jove, I'll ask every single jump.
_{[ A little more passion in his voice here.
Nobody should ever deprive a movie junkie of their needs, evidently. He shuts the video off before turning it back on quickly. ]}
For new arrivals, I greet you and will offer any services to you and will answer any inquiries! I've been here for some time, but I can assure you that you are not completely safe where you have been brought.
Thank you.

Sorry there are not any movies Jake.

[kringlefuck]

Ah hello. Nill, is it?? Im not precisely certain. Ive been forgetful in my wits lately!
Erm, quite alright.
Its just a right bummer when something youre all passionate about is taken away from you???

Have you been faring well?

[culver]

It is okay. Yes I am Nill.
That does sound bad. [spoiler she's never seen a movie]

Yes I am okay. Last month seemed very long.

I haven't seen any "Weekend at Bernie's" [ Air quotes. ] but I have seen Weekend at Barmie's. It's about two space aliens playing around with their friend's corpse on his home asteroid. It's... supposed to be funny?

[kringlefuck]

_{[ Jake tilts his head as he listens to the synopsis. Man, any kind of Earth movie sounds great right about now. Not like that said much; Jake loved every movie. ]}

Well I'll be darned. I haven't seen that one, and trust me, I watch a lot of them.
Say, who plays in it?

[forlifeloveandcheese]

Andrew McArthy, Jonathan Silveralien and Terry Kisser. They all look like weird, emaciated monsters to me, though.

[ex_question191]

Weekend at Bernie's? Really? You could ask for any movie, and that's your poison? I mean, I guess it's not a bad movie or anything, it's just, I dunno, I feel sorry for you, dude. What about Star Wars? Something Tarantino? Citizen Kane? Psycho? A little Kubrik? Maybe some Disney? I mean, there's just a whole lot of really good cinema out there and, I just, I feel sorry for you, that's all.

voice;

[kringlefuck]

_{[ He's a bit offended! ]}

Feel sorry for me! Satan's beard, why ever? I mean, I know I am not looking my most sunshiny at the moment but really. There isn't anything the matter with Weekend at Bernie's. In fact, I find it almost therapeutic for me.

But oh, how I adore the Star Wars movies. All of them. Preferably the originals with the puppets and what have you. That sort of shit's delicious, you know? Stupendous, really. I admire all of the works of George Lucas, than again, I admire the works of almost every writer, director, producer, etc, etc...

But nothing like a rainy, lonely tropical storm tapping on your room globe and a cup of brewed tea straight from the fiery irons and your Star Wars trilogy playing on your helmet computer.

_{[ You got him started. ]}

Of course, all by your lonesome. It isn't as if anybody was there to watch them with!

_{[ Oh great. ]}

But right you are! Coincidence at its finest, I actually interrupted Star Wars trilogy with Kubrick ones. A Clockwork Orange always tickled my fancy in a peculiar way, even if it made me a bit nauseous. Who the devilshits would be daft enough to film a fight scene where another person gets conked on the noggin with a porcelain ivory object that favors something phallic? A classic scene. I doubt I will ever view milk the same way again.
Seagoat milk, I guess. That's my only source.

_{[ He breathes. ]}

You know, talking about movies is sort of helping a lot. Am I jabbering too much?

_{[ sir, you might want to reconsider your options here. ]}

voice; DEAR JAKE ENGLISH I LOVE YOU

[ex_question191]

[ holy shit, stiles has found someone on this boat who actually talks more than he does. for all he was originally incredibly dubious about jake's taste, he's now begrudgingly impressed. even if a lot of the words he uses are nonsense and his accent is sometimes slightly unintelligible to this norcal teen. ]

Okay, I take it back. You're not totally tasteless.

[ there's amusement in his voice. ]

And dude, no. Jabber away. Jabber all you like. Iiiit's kinda reassuring? You know, to have people to talk to about normal stuff. Everyone else is like, "hey asshole, let's tell you about the four million things from sci-fi you're now gonna have to deal with as a part of your daily life! And also, you don't get pants!"

Video

[skindeep]

I don't believe I've ever seen that movie. What's it about?

video;

[kringlefuck]

Oh, it's a great comedy movie. I believe it was filmed in the 80's or 90's having to do with a couple of folk with an insurance company. These two have uncovered an accounting error with the company and the boss is at fault. And so he invites two employees over for the weekend to have them murdered and framed. However, the boss is dead when they arrive, and then the two employees fret they will be accused of murdering him. And so, they try to make everyone believe he is still living.

It's my favorite!

_{[ he's a weird kid ok. ]}

video;

[skindeep]

And you're sure this is a comedy? Sounds a bit dark.

[video]

[yardbird]

Not a whole lot of variety as far as these media libraries go, is there?

[Well, there is, but it's all culture references and shit that's way, way, way beyond Murphy's time.]

Don't got any movies, but like I said before... I got 'em in my head. [Now that Murphy is not on the verge of death this time, he might actually be able to effectively make an idiot out of himself!]

[kringlefuck]

_{[ muuurrrrpphhhyyyy. Here's a smile. ]}

Ah, Mister Convict!

_{[ shit. ]}

Well, I mean, there are things to watch, but...
Matthew McConaughey isn't in any of them! Who the devilfucking dickens has a cinemaflick collection without a video featuring the handsome face of that bastard?

video; 1/2

[yardbird]

Tch...

[Excuse him while he fumbles with his device for a moment.]

[video; private; no encryption]

[yardbird]

If you could... do me a favor -- I don't care what you call me, but I'd rather avoid "Mr. Convict" over the network...?

[Who knows who's watching this.

[Sigh.] Anyway...

I dunno 'bout Matthew McConaughey, but I'm more of an Uma Thurman guy. [Because Pulp Fiction, fuck yeah.]

voice;

[andblockbuster]

I feel you, bro. At this point, I'd take Zardoz.

voice;

[kringlefuck]

But who wouldn't take Zardoz! The outfit is absolutely stunning!
If I had the materials, I would have made one for my own fitting.
Topher, my good man, is that how you get all of your women?

voice;

[andblockbuster]

Uh... [JAKE WHAT EVEN] No. The only person who can pull off a red diaper is Sean Connery and even that's pushing it.

[fraud]

[ a shameful sigh and he shakes his head ]

What kind of a host invites you to his house for the weekend and dies on you?

[ h e h ]

[kringlefuck]

_{[ Here is the sound of a fan boy cheer as he rolls over and out of the camera's view, followed by laughter.
Good job, Mike. You win the cheer up award. Have a ribbon:

[ BEAMS HIMSELF. yay he loves cheering people up. ]

Glad to help. I can't say I have it to share but, I do hope you get to find it soon.
