so the theme for movie night this week was incomprehensible films…

first up, memento. good concept. interesting film. sucked that i already knew who killed the wife. but that didn’t really take anything away from the plot. it was confusing no doubt, but it was good. i’m not sure if i liked it though. the main character annoyed me. he’s stephen dorff and val kilmer’s bastard love child. just bugged me. and the matrix chick…all i can think of is bluey and the MPS when i see her. haha. also bugged me all the times the guy said he didn’t have amnesia. YES YOU DO! just cuz it’s not the layman’s amnesia, that you can remember who you are/were…it’s still amnesia. it’s anterograde amnesia instead of retrograde. get it right. oliver sachs (sp?) is a neurologist who has written a bunch of books about various patients he’s had over the years. he is the guy who wrote Awakenings (which became a movie). one of his case studies was called the last hippie. it was about a man with anterograde amnesia, who was stuck in like 1967. he couldn’t create any new memories. it was really interesting, cuz the guy was a big grateful dead fan, and dr sachs would play grateful dead records that were recorded after 1967…each time the guy wouldn’t know them, would claim he had never heard them before, but would know all the words…. interesting how the brain works.

brian watched a spider dangle from the ceiling throughout the movie and didn’t even try to kill it. jerk.

2nd movie was an anime film called Blood, the last vampire. the box claimed it was 80 min long…and it was like 40. so we wonder where the rest of the movie went. watched the “making of”, which was so amazingly ridiculous. haha and i wasn’t in that one.

we also watched ninj’s video from 1999. i have nothing to say about it.

so brian went to leave around 1:30 or something, but came back in and told me and james to come outside. super fog!! we walked around outside for a bit with cameras, then bri left and james and i…colored LOL and something i won’t mention, and had a nice chat and passed out. had to get up at 10 to go to the dentist, came back, went back to sleep til 3:30 when james left.

leagues ahead of last week.

now i have nothing to do the rest of the day. well i gotta get my meds, and gas from the rez but after that…nothing…i’ll figure out something to do

33 hours til bowie
