So in my last two posts, some fruity loop has been giving me later comments. I'm not even mad. I'm just laughing over his stupid name. The lameness of the name makes me think it's one of my friends. Hahaha, this lollerfag got up at 6 in the morning to hate. That's tragic, not magic!

Okay so the other big event of the day has got to be Slumdog Millionaire. I'm not one to go with the hype, especially when it comes to movies; but this one intrigued me. So much so that I actually decided to watch this movie alone. It was also the first time I went to the Regency Theater on Sunflower. The shitty little one that only shows art and/or foreign films.
Allow me to digress and describe this theater before praising this film. Although I appreciate that a theater which shows such great and rare films such as this one can be found so close to my home, the poor quality of the screening room makes me want to never go back there again. I've been wanting to go there since like Lars and the Real Girl was showing. But I think because I saw Slumdog, I'll definitely be back. Okay, so the screen is like the size of a classroom wall. It projected maybe 24 x 14 ft. Also, there were like FIFTY rows of seats all with just ten. But it was empty. So like I sat in maybe the 8th row and I just barely got a good look. I can't even imagine what the old people on the 30th row were looking at on a screen that small. Seats reclined but they were wobbly. And lastly, the popcorn was salty and stale.
But this horrible movie-going experience was compensated by the grandness of the film. So I've been hearing and reading a lot of buzz about this movie. They were calling it the best film of the year. Well, let me assure you, it doesn't trump Dark Knight, but it's definitely remarkable; one of the best in years. My favorite thing about it was the innovative story format. It's a frame narrative that unveils the story through a game show format. I was so captivated that I held in a piss for like 90 minutes because I didn't want to miss a second. The realism is frightening but also enlightening. In short, if you trust my taste in movies, check it out. It releases worldwide this Christmas.
It's raining again. I don't care for the rain. I give you... a haiku!
No More Rain
Rain, rain, go away
Do not bother me today
Then I'll be okay
