Movies and stuff
Aug. 2nd, 2006 08:55 pmIt's 9 PM, and it's still 90 degrees out. Gaaaah.
Spent the afternoon in a frigid movie theatre (yay) watching Pirates, which was pretty-looking and had lots of nifty FX, if not the best script ever. Got home and watched V for Vendetta, which was very good on many levels. (Chandra, you should watch it--it doesn't so much reference Phantom as it does take it to England, mostly intact, and give the Phantom a political instead of a musical agenda.)
Now I'm going to either continue on with Beatrix Potter's journal (Victorian snark!) or start To the Lighthouse, which came into the library for me today. Decisions, decisions.
