They were showing the movie 'A.I.' on TNT last night (a few times; I caught large parts of the movie each time). I'd seen some of the movie before, mainly the beginning and the end. And I didn't watch it straight through this time either so there's parts I missed. I don't really care for Steven Speilberg much after he digitally edited and changed the guns in the mens' hands in the DVD release of 'E.T.' into walkie-talkies, so the entire movie struck me as a bit pretentious. I also don't like Haley Joel Osment, and I don't really know why.
Speaking of which, actors I don't really like usually turn out to be Scientologists. I never liked John Travolta or Tom Cruise, and they became Scientologists. I'm not sure why that is.
I watched it right before bedtime and for some reason I couldn't stop thinking about it because I had wanted to rewatch the last scene (which I had previously seen, but years ago); however I missed it last night.
I kept thinking about it ALL night. I woke up during the night about 5 times and kept thinking about the movie trying to piece together the last scene from my vague memories of it. And it was the first thing I thought of after I woke up. So annoying.
Looking on Wikipedia refreshed my memory as far as the last scene went and I haven't really thought of it again until now (because I'm a little tired from A.I.-related sleep problems).
Obviously the movie is kind of depressing, too, so I woke up feeling kind of sad. Remind me not to watch anything more thought-provoking than "The Nanny" before I go to bed :p
