Hello Loler.
You are right deprav about that thing, that art can change ppl. I'm like this because when i watched 'Nausica of the valley of the wind' that basically changed me in lots of ways.
When I saw those flaying ships, huge bugs that destroying everything, the characters and all of that... I just wanted to do that stuff, to draw and form new worlds and characters, to make stories and situations, and the best way form me was by making comics, since it's easier then making animations.
So, basically Hayao Miyazaki changed the course of my life. Gorge Lucas just fucke me up some more with his Star Wars episode IV. XD
Eh, nothing was the same for me after I saw those 2 movies, in my age, they had great impact on me.
So, yes, forms of art can changes something in you and in some way 'point' you toward some things that you will do in your life.
For instance, Snake should have been a military asset. XD
