London is to far away...

Okay, so I was away. Long story short, getting home involved a 9 hour flight from London to Vancouver, and on this bloody long flight I was able to watch three movies.

Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire

You know, for being the supposed "best" one yet, this movie was pretty shitty. For a minute I thought I was watching "Harry Potter and the Amazing Scissors", because I swear to God a lot more shit happened than I saw...

And then, after cutting half the book or so, they decide hey, let's throw in some shit that was never there to begin with! Call me a cynic, but there's something not quite right about that.

That said, decent movie. The Dragon was gay, Fleur was a pansy, and Voldemort was not nearly what I was expecting... not to mention the frantic pace made any development of character tough.

Oh, and Dumbledore sucked.

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

Funniest movie I've seen in a long time. I highly recomend it. Nothing else to say - rent it, watch it, laugh.

Interview with the Vampire

I think this is one of those movies that you watch and go "Um... WTF?". But your still glad you watched it because now you can be all pseudo-intellectual and discuss the "deeper meanings" and other related bullshit. Am I right?

Weird as all hell, but pretty cool. Oh, and the pararells between vampires and I dunno, let's say Buddhists in this day and age is very accurate. See? I'm an intellectual now.

In closing, go watch Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. And if you have time, IwtV.

...I watched Interview with a Vampire because we were using the 'vampire system' from there for our D&D games. (Because D&D Vampires are shallow and suck total ass) But I guess that's just me. ;)

*bursts out laughing*


(I can tell he's been there, lol)



Next time, try Stansted (airport), you'll be amazed at the contrast.

(though I'm sure you probably didn't have a choice in the matter)
