(no subject)
I saw the movie 28 Days Later yesterday. It's about the world after a quick-spreading virus that turns people into zombies is released that infects almost everyone, seen through the eyes of a guy who just woke up from a coma he was in when it all happened. It's sort of like what the movie Resident Evil might be if it kept going after its end. Except for what happens between the point in the movie about a half hour from the end to the point in the movie about 5 minutes from the end, it was pretty cool. I won't tell you why that portion wasn't cool, since it'd be a spoiler, but you'll have to trust me when I tell you that it's stupid.
Be warned, it had a bit of male nudity, with no corresponding female nudity. In the context of female nudity, I can even sort of appreciate male nudity, since without it, I feel bad for the women who are missing out. Plus, one might hope that if, through movies, young girls get used to male nudity as much as we men are used to women, they'll want to get us naked in real life as much as we want to get them naked, and that'd certainly be fun. But outside of the context of female nudity, male nudity is inexcusable. Someone should start a boycott of it. It's just gross.
Anyway, they're having a Planet of the Apes marathon on AMC today (and yesterday). I know I liked the original movie when I was younger, and I remember wanting to see them all, but I'm not sure whether or not I ever actually did. So far I've watched the first three of the five original movies (original as opposed to the recent remake of the first movie in the original series), and I remembered parts of all of them. We'll see if I remember parts of the next two. Interestingly, I also vaguely remember seeing a movie called Return to the Planet of the Apes, but while checking last night to see where in the series that one came, I found out it was never made, and I must have been halucinating. We'll see.
