i came to a strong realization this weekend. it is either a realization i can come to embrace or one i can cope with while feeling pain and fear. regardless, it is something im going to have to live with, because this is not something im going to just be able to let go of. the fact of the matter is, i really like christian slater movies. he is the action hero of my generation, with movies like true romance, gleaming the cube and the wizard, i dont really understand how i couldnt come to the terms with my love for this mans up to par acting, and moreso a strong love for this man in general. its a good thing hes a dreamboat, or this would have been much harder for me to say
with that said, it was not a bad weekend at all for me. i spent all of yesterday watching movies, something i have not had a chance to do in a long time. why is that i always tear up so much during armageddon? i cant explain that at all, its a cheese ball summer blockbuster, but when liv tyler asks "do you think there is anyone in the world doing the same thing we are at this very moment", and ben afflecks response is that "if they arn;t, then what the hell are they trying to save," my eyes just well up and i lose it. that is just beyond powerful, that is damn right brutal.
so i watched armageddon, philadelphia, i heart huckabees, mindhunters, mr 3000, and the flight of the pheonix. i want to make it clear, although i think giovanni ribisi is still an amazing actor, he looked completly different in flight of the pheonix. it took me a while to even realize it was him. there is no point to making that clear, its just something on my mind.
so the truth is im pretty pumped about work today. thats a big fat lie, but maybe if i say it a bunch of times, then it will become true... maybe. i have to go to work.... im so pumped. its 530, man am i pumped. "just keep your Power Gloves off her, pal, huh?"
