How can life be so busy and yet supremely uneventful?
Saw Dawn of the Dead. Guns! Gunsgunsgunsgunsguns! Damn, I love guns! It's the way they make people look when they're holding them, especially when firing them. Arms out, legs braced, eyes focused. That, and the noise >:)
The guy called Michael was sweet. Sweet and smart. And quite handsome. All the best qualities a man can possess! I choked up and thought I was going to cry at the end. (That's a Big Thing, because I rarely cry. You have to really manipulate me before my eyes start leaking.) And poor old Andy! You know, you'd think that when the mall guys figured out how the infection was spread, they would have let Andy know. I would have. And why didn't they think of getting food to him sooner? I mean, he owned a gun store. What was he eating up till then?
The zombies looked kickass. The girl at the beginning, the zombie-baby and "Burt Reynolds" were particularly good. Hahah, picking off the undead celebrities was funny! "Get Rosie O'Donnell next!"
Chips the dog was cute. Collies are the greatest dogs. So the animals go uninfected, and the humans... wander around for the rest of time? Damn. The end of the world would be easier to accept if the people were just dead.
And yay for making people sit through the credits! I always try to sit for as long as I can through credits. Hey, I feel I owe it to all those people who made the movie! Besides, I like reading the soundtrack listings, which are always right at the end. But there comes a stage where I'm thinking, "OK, better get up before the staff start trying to poke me out with their brooms."
One question does bug me though: once the whole population's infected, what do zombies eat? :/ I mean, clearly they're interested only in uninfected, living human flesh, soo... do they eventually deteriorate, and decompose completely while they're walking around? Or is it an immortal deal, and they just starve but never die? Are they even aware of being hungry? Or does the sensation of hunger only strike when there's legitimate prey about? I'm thinking about this too hard, aren't I?
Now I just want to see Shaun of the Dead sooooo much more :)
Why do they call it a "concession area"? The food there's more expensive than outside the cinema; where's the consession? I miss the Dublin Road cinema being UGC. The Movie House intro-pieces are too neon and flashy, and have crappy synthesiser music. And I miss the Pearl and Dean intro music. Bappah-bappah bappah-bappah bap-bap-bah!

James is gone. I miss him. I didn't think I would, because it wasn't like he was in the house much. Maybe it's just that now it's a house full of girls. Or maybe it's because I'm now living with people who I don't know. OK, so I've been living with Joanna and Pamela for two years now, but I still consider them as Ann's friends rather than mine. And Dee is a completely unknown quantity. And a creepily silent, unknown quantity, at that.
Dammit, Philip's gonna be playing Max Payne 2, and I won't be there to watch and laugh with him over the incredibly bad writing they have for the graphic novel bits.
