"The nose plays."
Jun. 9th, 2007 03:09 pmTwo things. First, I am realizing I really should invest in a spare hard drive, so I have some choices. I also have $42 in a gift card to Best Buy, so that sweetens the deal for anything I get off of there. And the 250G one is a pretty good offer, but really, am I ever going to fell 250G? I doubt it. I doubt I'll fill 160G for a long, long time. Anyway, I want input, please.
In other news, I saw Ocean's 13 last night. Unspoilery, I want to say that I loved it, I thought it was hilarious, and while I read a review today in the Post that hated it, I don't think he understood the true draw of the Ocean movies. His problem with the movie was that it thought audiences would be satisfied by watching Clooney stand around and be funny, and Pitt eat stuff and be Rusty-like, and Damon be fumblingly cute. Um... yes? I was satisfied. I don't think that guy liked 11 or 12 either (and really, not liking 12 is forgivable, even though I personally like it), so him reviewing 13 was probably a stupid move. He also thought the plot was too convoluted, but I saw it with my friend's mother, and she didn't understand 11 or 12 until her second time through, and she said her one disappointment was that she did understand everything in this movie. So... I think that guy was a moron. The movie rocked. ( More, with spoilers, under the cut )
Any way you cut it, I really hope for a resurgence of fanfic surrounding the movie. That would make my week.
