Ave Maria

Nov 15, 2007 17:29

So, in the last 24 hours I've watched 4 movies. Each movie more movie like than the last. Other things happened too, I'll get to them in a minute god damnit!

Anyway, the movies:

Tekkonkinkreet (aka Black & White) - This was the first of the four movies Colby and I watched. God damn was it amazing. Absolutely amazing and brilliant and worthy of it's Oscar nomination for Best Animated Film. This is what good anime is people... go rent it.

Johnny Mnemonic - The 2nd movie we watched and a personal all-time favorite. I have a wicked hard-on for Cyberpunk and as far as films go, this is one of the best. Makes me all warm and fuzzy to see this movie again, I'm glad we rented it.

Idiocracy - I wanted to see this movie in theaters but never really got around to. This is Mike Judge's vision for our future staring Luke Wilson. It was actually very well made and very funny. I recommend seeing it if you want to see a very accurate satire on our society and culture.

The Marine - Far and away one of the worst movies ever made... hands down. This action romp stars John Cena (former WWE Champion) basically murdering people and leaping out of exploding buildings (approximately 13 times by my count)... all to recover his wife who was kidnapped by probably the worst jewel thieves ever conceived by the human mind. Seriously. Go see this movie, it's so god damn awful its amazing.

Other stuff:

School is rapidly coming to an end... less than a month remains between me and my degree in psychology. This terrifies the ever-living fuck out of me. After 15 years of school it's hard to imagine not being in it... you know? Oh well, I just need to stay on track and everything will be golden.

It was Sean's birthday yesterday, Chance through a little kick-back at their place. It was really fun, I got to hang out with the old crew, take shots of tequila, smoke some J and play X-Box 360. It was a gay old time and I'm always grateful to hang out with those guys. Happy birthday Sean my boy!

I took the day off today just to recharge. Work was a god damn disaster-fuck last night and I just needed a day to sleep in and relax. Which is exactly what I did and I feel better. I worked on game, ran some errands, paid a bill and generally just kinda hung out.

I'm sitting here alone in the dark, listening to Maria Callas sing Ave Maria... it's so god damn beautiful it makes me want to cry... fuck me, I love Opera.

Tonight I run D&D after which we'll probably watch Virtuosity. If all I told you was that Denzel Washington and Russel Crowe made a movie together, you'd probably think it was good right? I mean... look at American Gangster! If you haven't seen Virtuosity, I'll leave my description at that and let you enjoy it, haha!

I'm going to go lie down and let Maria Callas torture my soul with her aria a little longer... it hurts to hear someone sing so beautifully to God... in a good way.

Until next time,

Adieu~
