Ain't Nothing Gonna Break My Stride
Lately I've had this completely unwarranted good feeling about pretty much everything in the world... Maybe it's my birthday coming up or the insane amount of awesome stuff I have to look forward to, beginning with They Might Be Giants tomorrow night with cacophonyblood and culminating in Thanksgiving weekend in two weeks, but it just feels like so much more than that. I can't even explain it- and it's persisted through the news of Dollhouse getting canceled. Not a surprise, but it still sucked, and it's probably going to bring me down when the last episode airs and it hits that there's (probably) never going to be more of this amazing show, but this mood of mine has broken through even that for now. What did I do to deserve this, endorphin-releasing parts of my brain?
Went and saw The Men Who Stare At Goats on Wednesday. Strange one, this film, but packed to the brim on so many levels and hilarious to boot. Check it out if you get a chance, it's a charmer.
And that night brought the return of Glee with a decidedly more serious episode. What worries me most about this show is that it'll take the path Nip/Tuck took, which is to say decline in quality and go to a dark place, but for now it's looking like Murphy wants to keep it lighthearted, which it absolutely should be. Here's hoping he maintains enough control that his staff doesn't take a sharp left with it.
And finally, I finished Batman Arkham Asylum on Monday night- this was a great one. Very dark and though it was minimal on features as far as stuff you could do with the guy, it didn't overstay its welcome and it was worth it for the character designs and the old voice cast, to say nothing of much of the other awesome it has to offer. Gonna pick up that new Katamari hotness with my birthday money, and I honestly don't know if it can make me any more bright than I already am.
