Well, I finished watching The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring on Saturday. Saturday afternoon, Harry, Liz, and I went to see Dragon Wars. We all thought it was better than Godzilla (the Matthew B. version, not the original), even though the beginning of the movie was a bit weak, and the ending had us scratching our heads a little. I spent some time at Harry's, and we watched Liz play "Heavenly Sword." She got a great deal on it by trading in some games and getting it off the "used" rack. I was impressed about how well she did in the fighting sequences, given that the game was throwing three to six guys at her at once. Later, we had dinner at an Italian restaurant across town and stopped at a Wal-Mart to do a little shopping. I got myself a new headphone set to use at work.
Today, I did my grocery shopping, vacuumed my room, put up some posters, and finished reading a "Star Trek: the Next Generation" book I started last week. I also started watching a tape I have with the movie Last Action Hero (something I taped off of cable awhile back). The thing I really like about this movie is how similar it is to my personal fantasy life--the idea that movies are images of alternate worlds where the fictional of our world is reality in theirs. Of course, I don't use a "magic ticket" in my fantasies......*steps into a phone booth, closes the door, picks up the phone, dials a number, and hangs up. A square of light appears under the phone booth, and the booth drops down into the light. The light shrinks into a dot and disappears*
