movie reviewish notey things
26 Sep 2004 01:47 pmdid i mention? we went to see
-shameless plugs for converse. "these are genuine 2004 vintage." but it was cute, and will convinced me that black leather converse are the ONLY shoes to wear with a badass, semi-casual ass-kicking outfit.
-the man has his swagger down pat. he never takes a step without one shoulder moving about six inches lower than the other.
-it's a very good movie and very good sf. i've seen the plot before, and can't remember where, except daddy said they changed it and i'm relatively sure i haven't read any of the robot universe, so i'm not sure WHERE i've seen it... maybe one of those summaries my parents give of classic sf over the dinner table. i've still never read stand on zanzibar. maybe a collection of asimov or saberhagen short stories. we have several. (they have, that is.)
-the girl was funny.
-alan tudyk's a faboo actor. his little woobie face!
-i didn't even want to slash. it was will/girl all the way, in fact.
-it made me want some good hard sf, though, or maybe some nearish-future sf. zelazny, saberhagen. they're so productive i've not read their whole ouvres. and of course i admire asmiov as, like, the granddaddy of Genre, but i'm not much of an asimov girl, myself. the foundation trilogy and some shorts are about the limits of tolerance.
