Dec. 3rd, 2004 11:35 amOne of the advantages of throwing yourself into the 'career' they call writing is this: if you happen to own a laptop, even on those days when there's no way in hell you're getting out of bed, you can still get work done. In theory of course.
I'm debating whether or not to accompany two of my housemates to the UW ADP showing of some anime film who's title I forget. It's done by the same folks who did Perfect Blue, which is heavily leaning me towards 'going'. I think I'll just see how I feel at that point. I need to hit the Post Office anyway, so I may as well make the trip as worthwhile as possible.
I watched Kill Bill again with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
zinjadu last night. She'd never seen it, which in my opinion was a crime against herself. As I thought, she enjoyed it immensely. We need to rent the second one when we go back to the video store.
A lot of people have said Kill Bill is too campy, and too full of references to other movies. In my opinion, it manages to be both a tribute and an original piece quite well, without one taking away from the other. And I enjoy looking at it and saying 'oh, that's a nod to so-an-so'. I haven't seen Hero yet, but as far as I'm concerned, Kill Bill is Terrentino's greatest achievement. And yes, I do enjoy the multiple scenes of very hot women fighting with shiny weapons. Especially Uma Thurman and Lucy Liu, because I am in lust with both of them. But really, can you blame me?
I really should get back to work.
