James Dream

I had the weirdest dream, whereby I was in a James Dean movie, but I was also a man wearing a Jack Daniels t-shirt (JD I guess) and everyone was in colour except James Dean. Something weird went on, where we all ended up in this testing centre with lots of PCs where we just had to do whatever we would normally do on a PC, and I remember desperately trying to think of a way to escape. Dean was there too. I think someone had an afro.

What the hell was that about, and why was I a man?

It was not helped by my cat waking me up at 5am by walking on my head repeatedly until I got up.

I don't like Mondays.

Almost 24 hours until the first deadline hits. I like flashing underscores, they're helpful.

I also got rid of so many videos in the last 24 hours that I'm terrified. My amazon wishlist consists almost entirely of DVDs now, which is most unusual.

My hair is two colours. See my Myspace for more details.

Black Christmas Update

So we saw Black Christmas. I got mostly what I expected, and was pleased to see that the Final Destinationer's creativity with deaths was not lost (I won't spoil it, but, ice).

It was pure entertaining rubbish! What else can I say? Like cheesy teen horror with a flimsy plot, bland acting and a woman that looks like a man, go see this film.

Kept me entertained anyway, I love picking apart horror :D

Black Christmas

I'm excited. Why? Because I love cheesy horror. The Final Destination films are on my list of favourites, because they are mostly rubbish. And that's what makes them so good.

Black Christmas - made by the people who made the FD movies, a *remake*, the cast list is mostly a remash of people from the FD films, and the annoying one from Buffy. And and and, it revolves around Christmas. Magic. I expect laughs. The clip I watched earlier floored me. It seems the producers haven't got any less inventive with their deaths.

Friday. I'm excited. And yes I am a tad morbid.

I was looking through some of my old research, and found a photo of this - an origami unicorn I made when I was doing a project about Bladerunner. The site with instructions is here.

The Prestige

We went and saw The Prestige the other day. I'm not sure if I liked it or not. It was entertaining, don't get me wrong, but quite slow in places.

Like Batman Begins, the art direction and what not was pretty decent and it had that same shine to it - I don't really know how to explain it. It was refined. The cast listing was impressive (what was David Bowie doing in there? That was unexpected.)

I just didn't like the twist, which I suppose, is entirely what the thing was based on, so I guess that's why I'm unsure as to if I liked it.

Five stars for effort, two and a half for the story.
