Guest analogue wings Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 M*A*S*H is basically a watered-down Catch 22 tho, with the brutal absurdist nihilism replaced with 70s whimsy, so I dont know if it would stand up well to a direct comparison.

Chris Moss Acid Posted March 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 it just happend that i bought catch 22 and then mash at the same time, without even relizing how they are in the same 'genre' im going to download the audio book and read catch 22 starting from tomorrow. Also im a big fan of Donald so yeah i always kind of thought the film is liek the tv series which ludd says isnt true. so let the mashing begin! lol Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/43943-give-me-a-reason-why-i-should-watch/#findComment-990213 Share on other sites More sharing options...
