a new regime, the rise of machines, this is a pixel revolution

… and I am a social networking girl.

So I’m watching Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and it’s possibly the first good movie I’ve seen in a long time. I’m really enjoying it, you know? And the first thing I think is something like “Man, I need to tell someone I’m watching this great movie!” Not word for word but like I said, something like that. Anyway, I feel this immediate need to share this with someone. Voila, the effects of too much social networking (namely, Twitter).

It makes me wonder what I used to do when I watched a good movie, or read a great book. Did I feel the need to find someone to talk to about it? Did I feel the need to share?

I went and saw Fahrenheit today.

When the soldiers were talking about that Drowning Pool song, Let the Bodies Hit the Floor, I was so disgusted. That moment as well as the images of the charred bodies of U.S. soldiers being beaten and strung up like pinatas really stood out in my mind.

I hope that people realize that this is a very one sided view of the story. Well, obviously….it’s Michael Moore’s view of the story. To me it was 80% of trying to make Bush and his buddies look like idiots, 10% gruesome war footage and brainwashed soldiers and the last 10% was uncovering information and links among the government and “the enemy”.

Then we went home and made pizza then went for a bike ride along the beach. Now I’m watching Flashdance and listening to fireworks.

RE: my last journal entry…I’ve decided I want to throw a Survival Movie Marathon. You know get s bunch of people together dressed up in tattered clothes and/or army fatigues, eat food out of cans, light candles, watch movies like
28 Days Later
Alien
Resident Evil
Jurassic Park

but do which if the Evil Dead movies? 1, 2, or Army?

and is Full Metal Jacket like that? I need a war survival movie.
