the_dala at 08:29pm on 11/11/2004HOORAY for the end of the week. No Bio tomorrow, just work and then I'm leaving for the lovely, scary campus of the University of Maryland -- College Park for a night with La Fernacion. Then home Saturday morning to get my car windshield fixed, at which point I will do a jillion loads of laundry (I am taking two hampers home. There's a visual for you) and watch the rest of the Jack Dav movies. Then the party of ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
fairestcat and norabombay, hopefully -- errr, Cat, I kind of can't drive home that night because I will ostentibly be back at CP. So can I crash on your floor? I WILL BRING ANY DESSERT FOOD YOU REQUEST (that can be bought at Giant or Safeway or something).
So, won't be around much this weekend. Althoughkhohen1, I will post the recs for this round as soon as I go around and poke everybody who's left. Sorry! I kinda got caught up in stuff this week.
Also typing up a couple pages of "Fate" W/E hijinks. Might be done tonight. We'll see.

No, there's me too.
What I don't understand is how they could have made what is essentially a moving painting - while it may suck, it's quite something to look at - but instead put in a whole bunch of stuff that doesn't need to be in there.
If this had come out while I was in grade school, I'd have been so vocal against it and how there isn't any representation of other winter holidays in films. Let's get some Roman slaughter into the cenemas next year to balance it out.

Dessert foods are welcome but not required, anything you feel like.

On the "Polar Express" thing; I read somewhere that a film critic was highly disappointed with the "animation." He went so far as to say that some of the faces looked blank and one character looked as though her face were paralized... I think Hollywood has ruined one of my fav children's books.

It definitely does not look as good as they think it does. It's just going to remind kids of how much better Pixar/Disney and Dreamworks does it. Also, the scene they showed on the WB looked like the Robin Hood scene in "Shrek," so I was cracking up and not in a good way.

I think I am the only person who hasn't seen "Shrek." Oops... Here's quotes from that article. Actually it came from one of my fav blogs. "A girl on the train has an odd immobility in her lower face — she looks a bit deranged," Wired's Jason Silverman writes. "And the eyes and face of a young boy are robotic and blank — he reminded me of David in A.I., but far less expressive."

Well, in the scene, there's a lively dance number and some insinuations made that Robin Hood might not be entirely...straight :) All those merry men, you know. It's subtle, but it's funny, and naturally I couldn't take the similar scene in "The Polar Expess" seriously.
