This is the entry I would’ve posted yesterday had the site been up and running.
There is something about watching X-Men Friday night, then X-2 on Saturday afternoon, and then the newly released third X-Men movie in the theatre yesterday evening that just makes me feel so…ordinary. This imperfect affliction they call homo sapien. When I was a little girl, I fantasized about having special powers. Making water shoot out of my fingertips, communicating with animals, psychically locating lost objects. I think I most often wished I could turn into a spider and disappear around a table leg so that I could be there without people knowing I was there. I don’t know why I’d never wanted to be actually invisible. Also, something about watching Halle Berry in a tight bodysuit and Rebecca Romjin naked except for some blue body paint and scales inspires me to lose weight.
The continuity between the 3 movies was great, very entertaining.
Cool, you only just saw the first two this weekend? I went out to watch The Last Stand on Friday, I loved it!
How did you like them, and which one did you like the best?
I actually saw the first one on HBO some time ago. And I didn’t realize it until I saw it again, but I saw a middle portion of the 2nd one, too. I’m not sure which I liked the best since they were all really similar. The latest one had the best special effects, I suppose.
Speaking of movies.. I think I told you about The Family Stone (either in a phone conversation or email)… anyway… have you had a chance to see it yet? I watched it for the second time lastnight… love it.
Yeah, you wrote it in an email. Mr. W had never heard of the movie, either. Now, is the movie about a family whose last name is Stone, like Sharon’s family, or is it about a rock or headstone of sorts that belongs to some family?
