obviously, I want pizza....
Friday's movies were Before Sunset and Shaun of the Dead. Both were excellent movies.
Before Sunset is, I think, better than Before Sunrise. Admittedly I've never had a huge thing for the movie, and I know a bunch of people do. We watched it the other day on DVD and I thought it was only romantic near the end. Before Sunset on the other hand was a much stronger movie all round: it was romantic, funnier and felt more real. My problem with the first movie was to do with the forced nature I felt their conversations had at times. The second movie flowed naturally and was wonderful...Bliss!
After that we went in search of pancakes. They were surprisingly hard to find. Lee and I walked to the Purple Onion from the Embassy and none of the places we checked in between had pancakes. I could have had waffles at the Krazy Lounge but the only table was right in front of the door...Anyway, once I had them the pancakes were great.
We went to Real Groovy and got some DVDs...Final Fantasy, Spellbound, Ripley's Game and Tori Amos' new concert DVD Welcome to Sunny California. Watched Ripley last night and liked it a lot, still. Must now lend it to people and share the happiness. Watched some Tori this morning and enjoyed that a lot too.
Backtrack...Shaun of the Dead is a funny/zombie/romantic movie. It was very very funny and there was only one bit that was too gross for me to look at. The director was there to answer questions after and he was funny too. Hix was there in the audience and asked two questions of the director and they were good questions.
This morning we saw Frodo is Great....Who Is That? which is another great doco. I love the docos, can you tell? It was really weird to see a movie all about a friend of a friend. It was very well made and they had a lot of access to the Lord of the Rings sets and everything. If it comesout, you should totally see it. It's just over an hour long so won't take up much of your time.
Then I went to the Girl Flat plus Svend to play Singstar and it was cool fun. Lee and some others went to see Chronicles of Riddick and Lee said after
"It wasn't *that* bad...." which means I am glad I didn't pay $14 to see it.
I am feeling scatty.
Music is Round Round by Sugababes because of Singstar.
