Awake and Preparing for Moviegoing.
Jan. 22nd, 2005 02:39 pmI'm awake now. Slept in past my alarm by a few hours. Oh well, at least I got some sleep. I had a very strange and disjointed dream though. At one point I was a time traveller and discovered that the 60's orgy I was attending was also the location of my conception.
Anyway, now that I am awake, I am going to have me some coffee and breakfast and then shower and get ready to go to Tim Hortons to meet fellow moviegoers. Eventually we'll end up at Dollarcinema to watch Hero.

I'm back from watching 'Hero' at the Dollarcinema. It was a far better movie than I expected. Far more visually stunning, niftier effect, and more humorous too. Mostly though, it was deeper than anything I think could be made in North America today. If an American movie were to be made that questioned what heroism was, it would (99.9999% chance) be superficial and trite. This was not either.
Definitely better than Crouching Dragon and definitely worth watching again sometime.
