Wild Things
Dec. 15th, 2009 11:19 pmTonight after work I went to see Where the Wild Things Are at the theater across from where I work (literally; I can practically pick up my organization's wireless network from there). There was about an hour to kill, though, so I sat down and wrote Spanderfic. Which was funny because the people who worked at the movie theater were standing around talking and suddenly started talking about Buffy. LOL One made a deal with another that if she finished Buffy before the end of the year, he'd buy her another DVD as a reward. Reward for watching Buffy? Where can I get one of those?! I just found it funny that I was writing in the fandom and then, half an hour later, they started talking about it. heehee
Anyway, the movie... made me feel stupid. I didn't quite *get* it. I keep trying to make sense of the strange... but I can't. Of course, I didn't fully understand Velvet Goldmine the first time around either and I ended up naming my cat after that movie. LOL But I don't think that's the kind of movie this is. Besides, my cat is already named Max. LMAO But, yeah. It was weird. And... disturbing. And... frustrating because I can't figure it out. Also, I spent a good THIRD of the movie trying to figure out who the voice talent was; I really should have looked it up before going to save myself the effort. The music was great. The Wild Things were really well done. But... I don't think I understand it. It eludes me.
And Maxwell is sitting on my keyboard.
