Wow, one of my posts has 6 likes on Facebook and it's about politics. Oops. That's more likes than any other posts in the thread though.
I'm trending!

I haven't listened to any Canterbury scene music in a while, so I guess I should probably throw on some National Health.

Anybody know of some examples where you preferred a film interpretation over the book original?

I'm not really tired anymore, but I am kind of bored. I'm watching Drag Me to Hell and other TV stuff until I decide to cook some chicken, which probably won't be until about 2, so I'm going to be lazy for a while. I need to order my textbooks.

I just finished watching 'Let Me In' (apparently an Americanized remake of Let the Right One In), and greatly enjoyed it. Kinda gave me another reason to not give a sh*t about Anne Rice, Bram Stoker, and the Twilight craze. |
I really enjoyed that movie, it wasn't perfect but it was really creepy and well done all the same.

Definitely the last Harry Potter. I hated the book but found the movie fun. Although I've grown kind of jaded towards the series and "fun" would be the most praise I'd give it, most likely.
