So I caught XF 2 this morning (way, way too early), and while I still have some processing to do about it, overall I'm pretty happy, esp. in regards to the MSR, which was just so wonderful and evolved and lovely in this film. I was really pleasantly surprised. I'll try to come up with a fuller, more spoilery review later, but for now all I can say ( Read more... )

So I just got home from "Hellboy II" and... wow.

LOVED IT.

Best movie I've seen all summer (so far).

I liked the first movie too, which surprised me because this is so not my genre. I am not at all into super hero and/or comic book movies (I don't even plan on seeing the new Batman), but Hellboy is such a great character and Ron Perlman is ( Read more... )

Well, that sucked ass.

I believe my experience at work today can best be summed up with the following illustrative link.

And that's really all I can say, short of my head exploding, which at this point would be a mercy for everyone involved.

In other, nicer cuter news, my youngest nephew (Evan, who's two) figured out this week that if he gets ( Read more... )

I am... really, extremely emotional tonight, and I don't know why.**

I just caught snatches of "Little Miss Sunshine" and (of all things) "The Patriot" on TV, neither of which I've ever seen all the way through (I've never seen "Little Miss Sunshine" at all, actually) and they both made me want to cry ( Read more... )

God, I hate when I whine. (see last post) It's pointless and stupid and makes me feel like an idiot, which is why I try not to do it here ( Read more... )

Holy. Shit.

I'm not entirely sure I can do this again.

Okay, I'm done talking about the fires now. Promise.

(There HAS been an update to my Aunt and Uncle's situation, quite an incredible one actually, but I wrote about it over on my original post if you're interested in reading.)Instead I'm here to share some Halloween music, before I get lost in the workweek while hacking and coughing and ( Read more... )

So I finally went and saw AWE the other day (in a theater, even!), and my highly spoilerish and long-winded thoughts can be found here:

Well, thank god it's April. I flipped over my calendar this morning with great relief. Still, I feel like my thoughts and emotions are scattered all over the place, like I'm forgetting things that need to be remembered and letting other things slide that I should pay better attention to. Blah ( Read more... )

I just finished watching "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" on HBO, and ... wow. At the moment I can only come up with three coherant things to say about it:

1. Yikes.
   
2. Yikes.
