Whew! 24 hours without internet! It's pretty sad how agitated I came because of it. I was one sad bastard the whole night. (Addicted, much?) But now I'm back, yay. (It turned out that since my university email address expired, I had failed to provide a new one. Thus, my connection was suspended. Oops?)









Got Serenity on DVD. I was saving the movie for the whole theater experience, but surprise surprise, it skipped the theater release here and would have come out in only DVD, anyway, so what the hell. So, a movie night for me. And no matter what everyone else say, DVD's are best when watched alone. If I'm trying to truly enjoy a movie, then the less distractions, the better. I even had to school my usual movie partner to shut up in theaters (with sharp elbows) because she had a bad habit of commenting the movie in the middle of the movie.

I have that very same problem. As does my "movie partner" (note: gay does equal talkative).
You probably would have killed us had you been anywhere near us when we went and watched the latest Potter movie a few weeks ago :D We both hated the movie so much we had to make up for it by entertaining ourselves somehow, and so we talked and, probably worse, laughed. A lot. In places where it really wasn't appropriate.
I felt bad for it afterwards, but bad habits are hard to break. I've always had friends who liked to comment on movies. The only ones who didn't like talking were two of my ex boyfriends. Go figure.

I believe that movie should be an experince: The darkened room which allowes stimulants only from the screen, the story tellling premise that gives the impression that you are the invisible watcher, and the goal of giving the wiever the greatest possible intellectual or emotional feed. Commenting and even acnowledging the other company, shatters that feeling.

But I still can feel with you. When I would have totally killed you should we have been in the same theater watching Harry Potter, I've had my days. Years ago I watched "Man in the Iron Mask" with Leonardo DiCaprio and it totally sucked big time. I made fun of it by making my own lines: When one of the knights went all emotional and was "He's my.." I teathrically announced "..My Son!!" Guess what the next lines were? "my son!" O_O Only the whole audience had gone death quiet just before I decided to entertain my friend and my over emotinal statement could be hard clearly in the whole audience...

To me that very much depends on the movie itself. The next film I'll definitely enjoy in a "decent" manner is :drumroll: "Brokeback Mountain" (omg, who would've guessed!?). That's also why I hope to get a hold of a bootleg soon. I want to savour the movie's every frame for what it's worth and I can only accomplish that when I'm alone and can laugh and cry all I want. Yep.

I've had that happening, and most times the people around me liked what I'd made up better than the actual line *proud*
Except when that one guy nearly peed himself from laughing so hard when we were watching "Alexander" and I announced that I had a sneaking suspicion we were actually watching "Troy" in one scene that was indeed very similar in both movies. Not really funny, but the guy was... weird, to say the least. Oh well, it was Lukas sitting next to him, not me. Phew.
