What do you expect out of a transformation clip? Stunning special
effects? An intriguing script? An Oscar-contending actress? A sexy, topless woman?
Needless to say, Jolene De-Educates and Becomes SEXIFIED! only has one of those things. Jolene awkwardly stumbles through the various mental and clothing changes as if she doesn’t quite comprehend what’s going on. Given that most women would react similarly if they were actually transformed into bimbos, the clip isn’t completely ruined, but an unpolished atmosphere is created that never completely fades.
From the second Jolene starts
explaining animal genetics near the beginning of Jolene De-Educates, it’s clear that the scripting for this
particular clip is more ambitious than average and equally clear that Jolene isn’t
able to pull off the delivery. But as she matter-of-factly states in the clip,
she is able to arch her back really hard, which is almost as good.
A sexy woman arching her back could be found elsewhere though.
As transformation fans, we expect more. Right? Maybe stunning special effects
are too much to ask but expecting cuts that aren’t jolting seems reasonable. Maybe
having an intriguing script is unrealistic, but how about one that doesn’t
refer to physical transformations that aren’t actually happening? Maybe an Oscar-contending
actress is out of the question, but one that can say her lines without
obviously reading them on camera would seem a minimal requirement.
For all that Jolene
De-Educates lacks, let’s not forget what it has; Jason
Tulips and a gorgeous woman doing their best to recreate someone’s transformation
fantasy over 20 minutes and 7 costume changes. Without a doubt, that scores
them huge points and will be enough for some. The rest of us expect more.
