*dances to chocobo music*
I'm actually updating. With actually semi-relevant stuff. Be afraid. (And...I'm capitalizing the beginnings of sentences! Which is weird lately.)
So anyway, this weekend was a lot of fun. Friday night Bry and I went to see Jenny's play, which was pretty good. Not something I probably would've gone to see if Jenny hadn't been in it, but I still enjoyed it. And Bry loved it, of course. It was a good time. And Bry and I had a great conversation in the car on the way home...can't remember exactly what it was about, but it was good. We've been having a lot of awesome conversations lately, actually. It's cool.
Saturday was Harry Potter! Yay! It was...shiny, as Tom so aptly noted.
I liked it a lot better than the last movie. Everyone was more in character now...except where Dumbledore was yelling at Harry about whether or not he put his name into the Goblet...that didn't make too much sense to me. I loved the costuming during the ball, it was nifty.
OMFG the Weasley twins! This movie totally played them up this time, probably because they're going to be so important in the next one. But yeah, they were absolutely hilarious. Which was cool.
I wish they hadn't completely cut out Dobby and Winky. That was kind of stupid. And Mundungus Fletcher, too. I'm not sure how they're going to be able to do anything at all with Weasley's Wizard Wheezes in the next movie, since they didn't mention it at all in this one, so who knows how that's going to work out. It's, like...kind of important. But whatever.
Barty Crouch = Hitler?
Dragons! I wanted to take the miniature ones home with me!
Beauxbatons uniforms... o.O
And Fleur wasn't that pretty.
Harry Potter was shirtless. Huzzah. But Myrtle was a little too obnoxious about it for my tastes.
I personally think they really needed to spend more time with actual classroom scenes...because there weren't any, and that kind of sucked. I really like all the classroom stuff, it's fun to watch.
Other stuff they skipped that they probably shouldn't have: Harry fighting off Imperius, finding out about Neville's parents with the Cruciatus thing (they sort of alluded to it in the Pensieve, but wasn't Dumbledore supposed to talk about it?), Rita Skeeter being an Animagus (she wasn't really in the movie much at all, so why did they even bother with her? She seemed like an extraneous character, they hardly did anything with her at all), Karkaroff running off when the Dark Mark was "activated".
Conclusion: loved the movie, but too much book to fit into 2 and a half hours.
After the movie, we all (me, Bry, Tom, Craig, Loren, and Travis) went to Archie's and hung out there for a while, of course. During which, Loren decided that Lord Voldemort is a warm fuzzy teddy bear on the inside. And I came to the conclusion that everybody knows what my Christmas present from Bry is. Except me. After that we kinda dispersed, I hung out at Bry's house for another couple hours. Cuddling and stuff, yay.
Yesterday I ended up at Bry's house again...for like 4 hours in the evening. Watching him and Tom play Final Fantasy. And it was really fun, oddly enough. I didn't want to leave when it was time for me to go home...Tom suggested I should just stay all night, but...my parents would've killed me. Besides the fact that I had an exam at 9am today. Honestly, if it weren't for classes and spazmodic parents, I probably would've stayed. Because I'm that much of a nerd.
And as a result of yesterday, I've had the chocobo music stuck in my head all day. It'll be stuck in your head too, go watch this: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/58184
Mr. MacLean is playing in the wind symphony with us now. It's interesting. He's loud.
I think that's really all I had to say.
So for those of you that are too lazy to read all that, here's a summary:
Cool play.
Shiny HP.
Chocobo.
Thank you, and good night.
