I’m gonna load up on coffee this afternoon, since I’m thinking of going to the after-midnite showing of Serenity. It starts at 12:30, so after almost thirty minutes of new car and coca cola commercials, that means the movie itself will run to nearly three AM.
And that? Is past my bedtime. A little.
Plus we have soccer (9:30 and 10:15 AM games on opposite sides of town, naturally)
We’ll see how it goes…
Last night I watched Hotel Rwanda with Don Cheadle, Nick Nolte, and Sophie Okonedo.
OMG.
I was going to post about it last night but couldn’t gain the composure necessary to do so. I felt like they could have made it much more graphic, but that wouldn’t have helped tell the story any.
In ten years we’ll see a similar movie about Darfur, or about another place that the world is pretty much ignoring while we try so desperately to ‘bring democracy to the middle east’ when they don’t want us to. And we should be ashamed.
If you haven’t seen Serenity yet. Seriously. Major spoilers. Big time will ruin the film for you if you haven’t already seen it.
Okay, is that enough warning?
Also, don’t be sipping a beverage while reading this the first time. I share with you: Serenity in 2000 Words or Less by Ron Swartzendruber.
