Entertainment media like video games and movies always influence the society in a lot of ways. One of the "hot" upcoming movie is the third part of The Butcher trilogy, The Butcher Cuts Loose, put eyepatch, regularly wore by the protagonist The Butcher, up on the fashion map and on occasion, people just love to put an eyepatch on their face.
Today, the entire class of Degree of Art of Miami Dade College all has an eyepatch on their right eyes, causing quite a spectacular sight in the school ground. Plenty of the college lecturers are shocked at their first gaze upon the class.
"I don't know, it's just feel weird when everyone is wearing an eyepatch. It's actually very uncomfortable at first but after I know that they are not doing anything bad, I am fine with that." says Robert, one of the class lecturers.
"I thought they are just doing it for fun, you know, they did a spec day and a scarf day before so I am actually used to it. Never know it's about The Butcher though, I am a Butcher fan too and I might wear one myself if I know about their plan, you know, be the representative on the lecturer's side." says Samuel, another of the class lecturers.
There are also a few from the other programmes that participate in this eyepatch-wearing event, most of them heard the event from their friends.
"We decided to spread it verbally instead of the internet. It's boring if there's too many wearing eyepatch today, we want to keep it under a certain amount, to stand out in the crowd." says Johnny, one of the idea planners.
There are plenty of eyepatch wearers but not everyone think it is cool. A few of them are actually laughing stock of their classmates.
"Meh, it's sad that I am the only one in my class that likes The Butcher. It's just not fun and they are making one-eyed jokes to me whenever there's an opinion to do so. I guess it really takes balls to be special." says Derek.
"My friends thought I had a terrible case of pink eye, my mother almost slaps me this morning thinking that I went to strip club yesterday. Not really a very fun experience." says John.
Overall though, this activity does spark up a fair bit of interest in the school ground and most seem to enjoy it. It has a fair share of attention in the "twittersphere" and you can definitely find a whole bunch of pictures on Flickr.
"It's great that they added She-Butcher into the movie, now even girls can wear the eyepatches proudly."
"This is Miami, man, if we don't support Dwayne Johnson, who else would?"
"It's really fun to see the world with one eye. It's fun to attract so much attention in the school ground really, although I am pretty sure their stare on me are not really the good kind, more of 'dude, he's weird' kind I think."
The Butcher Cuts Loose is in theater February 15, 2013.
