Talk:Also Schmeckt Zarathustra

obvious reference to "thus spoke zarathustra" by nietzsche --ValmonUni 01:22, 18 October 2006 (CDT) Could this be a reference to Xenosaga III, too? --Pancor 08:32, 19 October 2006 (CDT)

• Although the thought occurred to me too, as Xenosaga III came out recently and had "Also Sprach Zarathustra" as its subtitle. (Each game in the Xenosaga series takes its inspiration from a Nietzsche work.) The remark about pointlessnesss in the description could be related to common criticisms of the Xenosaga series, but I don't think the reference, if it exists, is defined clearly enough to be included on the references list here. --Nifty Nobu 15:00, 19 October 2006 (CDT)
• Given the description talking about 'wearisome and tedious,' I wonder if this is also a reference to Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. The movie's main theme was "Also Sprach Zarathustra" and to many was a tedious, wearisome experience. --Blargh the obnoxious 06:34, 29 May 2007 (CDT)
  • while i'd have to agree that 2001 is one of the most boring films ever made (oh, look! another model going past in incredibly slow motion!), there's no real indication that this is anything more than a straight comment on ennui generally. --Evilkolbot 06:42, 29 May 2007 (CDT)
