  • Quick Movie Review – and update

    Okay, so I haven’t posted in a while and I’ll start doing that soon now that I’ve decided that my LJ site shouldn’t be my primary blog.

    So anyway, went to see The Strangers last night at the Cleveland Circle Cinema.  Not a good movie, but scared the crap out of me.  If you really enjoy the tense, about to have a heart attack feeling for an hour and a half straight, check it out.  It has less of a storyline as The Descent, and a lot less gore, but that’s the type of SURPRISE scare that I can compare it to.

  • Quick Movie Review: The Descent

    More or less this movie creeped me the hell out! I have not been so creeped out since High Tension. It’s a story of a group of six or so adventurous women who set out on a spelunking expedition. Soon they are in over their heads due to the manipulation of one of the girls, and have found themselves lost and their friendships splintering. Furthermore: they are not alone in the dark, scary, spaces.

    The movie is a little more layered than just a plain thriller, and that keeps it interesting. It gave me nightmares, and that’s not an easy thing to do. Anyway, rent it, buy it (hint – Amazon Link below!), NetFlix it, or borrow it from your neighbor. Watch it late it night with all the lights off and be prepared to scare the living crap out of your couchmate when you scream like a girl when surprised once or twice throughout the movie.

  • Sunday Morning Banality

    I’m trying to fill the blog up with posts in order to test out features and how I want things to look and feel. I’m trying to find a way to ONLY view particular categories based on user preferences. Unfortunately, I know no real PHP or CSS and may have to pick up a couple books. Anyone have recommendations?

    In other news, Superbad was watched last night after I fell asleep.

    This morning, upon picking up the Boston Sunday Globe at my local package store, I glanced at the ads and saw the Panisonic stereo I want to buy at Circuit City for $300 (plus tax), and also that Best Buy has the printer I bought two weeks ago for $40 off. I’m taking a trip to Best Buy this afternoon to try to get the $40 back.
