Movies

So many DVD's I want to get, but I can't. I need to start making paintings of people's houses for extra money.

I saw Mystic River. It's another Sad movie. As well as Butterfly Effect. The Butterfly Effect was set up perfectly... I don't see it being arranged any other way. Mystic River on the surface is just a murder mystery, but the characters take everything much more personal and everything feels much more intimate than any other crime ever could. So many good movies this year, and many of them incredibly sad.

My personal Top Ten for the year:

2003
28 Days Later
American Splendor
Lost in Translation
Big Fish
Return of the King
Mystic River
Finding Nemo
Kill Bill Vol. 1
The Last Samurai
Dreamcatcher

And movies so far that are superb in 2004
2004
House of Sand and Fog
The Butterfly Effect
and ones to look forward to
Jersey Girl
Eternal Sunshine on the Spotless Mind
Kill Bill vol. 2
Secret Window
The 3rd Harry Potter movie
The Village
Along with tons of 3D animated features this year:
Shark Slayer
Shrek 2
Polar Express
The Incredibles
and comic/vg movies out the yin yang like Resident Evil 2 and the Punisher

It's going to be a big year!

Work has been ok. Just tiring in ways, mostly my feet.
Writing on my latest graphic novel is going well. The script should be finished in a week, then I get to start thumbnailing the pages. I'm not sure exactly how big it is going to be yet, but probably from 250 to 300 pages.
