(no subject)
I finished up Golden Compass this morning. DAMN! Polar Bears can throw down! Other than that, meh, it was a little confusing. I found myself backing up a lot. I guess it's too much fantasy for me. I find that is often the case whenever I see someone try to merge fantasy with technology.
I followed it with "Shortbus" and "Hedwig and the Angry Inch." HO LEE SHIT! Why the fuck didn't anyone tell me about these movies? I loved them both and took copious notes during "Shortbus." "I wanna try that... and that... and that. Oh, what the fuck is that? Whatever, put that on the list too." I was very surprised that they could put as much as they did on the DVD and still have it released unrated to the general public. But I now know why it wasn't at the local video store. DAMN! (I said that a lot during the first five minutes.) Hedwig also had its moments. Both were very cool movies.
The sad part is that, as soon as I kicked over from DVD to cable, I found myself just beginning the montage at the end of Episode III. Why does this always make me teary-eyed? I know I've gotten better since I caught a mid-afternoon showing before work. There I made a beeline for my car where I proceeded to break down into tears and sobs. (Shut up.) I made it through work just fine that day, with a few questions of why my eyes were red. I'm just a little annoyed that it still has such a profound effect on me. Even the Rebel Throne Room from A New Hope doesn't have *that* much power over me.
A coffee run would be nice this week.
