mimsy were the borogoves
Today has been a pretty good day ^_^ Was up before the alarm went off, as seems to be my propensity as of late, and showered and off to school to arrive right on time for class.
When I got home this afternoon, I watched the move I redboxed last night - ‘The Last Mimzy’. I had wanted to see it back when it first came out, but I had never actually done so. When I saw it last night, I decided it was definitely worth the getting. After having watched it, I still think that - and I plan on adding it to my collection as well. I love the story and the way they play it out ^^ I have rather at odds video collection at times I think
One of the fascinating things about the movie is how it all come back to various patterns. That really struck a cord with me. One of the things they talked about was mandalas, which I had heard of before, but didn’t really have much of a context for. After having watched one of the special featurettes on the DVD, I understand them a bit better. It’s amazing how patterns and such can have so much meaning to so many people. No, it doesn’t surprise me - I guess it’s just something that seems to be a bit lacking in American society in the norm.
After work - which was alright, as I had things to keep me busy most of the night - I went and returned the movie and grabbed another one. This time I got ‘Dragon Wars’ - another one I had wanted to see when it first came out. I don’t think this one will turn out to be quite as good as Mimzy was, but for a buck, it’s worth finding out if it’s any good or not ^_^
