So...yeah, the weekend blurred by in a haze of sickness and Final Fantasy XII. I'm really not sure where one ended and the other one began. The routine of wake up, use bathroom, sit in chair with Nintendo DS and play all day became the norm, punctuated, of course, with eating, more bathroom and the liberal use of tissues. It was a good weekend...as far as I can remember.
It has come to my attention, that 2008 will have a slew of movies that look pretty awesome. Cloverfield (which I've already spoken about), Ironman, Speed Racer, the next movie in the Chronicles of Narnia, the next Batman movie, a couple of CG cartoons (I've liked most that've come out so far), and a movie entitled Wanted.
Most of those are pretty self explanatory; the latter, however, was something I had never heard of before. The Yahoo news thingy has this to say about it: Angelina Jolie is back in action as a mystery woman named Fox who indoctrinates James McAvoy into a secret fellowship of assassins so highly trained they bend the very laws of physics, with Morgan Freeman as their gun-wielding guru.
I know what you're thinking...Morgan Freeman + Assassins = Awesome. Anyways, what the Yahoo blurb does not say about the movie is that it's a movie version of a somewhat famous comic miniseries where all the villains of the world united in 1986 and destroyed the superheroes. They now control the world from behind the scenes, Illuminati/Mafia style. The LA Times (I believe) called it a Watchman for villains. I think it looks pretty good, and, now that I know the comic exists, I'd love to look into it further.
Well...that's about all I got for today. There are end-of-the-year reports and other work related things I should be doing...
ciao!
