"Adapted" 2003-02-16 - 2:54 a.m. older - previous - next - profile - host - my band - my lj I had a pretty good day today saw 'Adaptation' (which I've been really wanting to see) with Stephanie and Erin it was a good movie, not like what I expected, but still good and I had thought that Charlie's twin brother Donald(both Nicholas Cage) was an alternate personality like Tyler Durden and the Narrator in Fight Club kind of a better, more charismatic version of Charlie; what he wanted to be but he wasn't he was actually his twin brother and he wasn't all that much better of a person still a good movie the only real flaw is that it was directed by Spike Jonze don't get me wrong, I love Spike Jonze; he directs great music videos(with the exception of 'Praise You' by Fatboy Slim; that one sucked), and he was a co-creator of Jackass but as a movie director he's average 'Adaptation' was an absolutely genius concept; and the way that it ended up with him writing the movie as it happened ie - Charlie(sitting in his car): "it will end with Charlie in a car thinking about how he'll end the movie with Charlie in a car" it doesn't make much sense, and I can't think of a way to type it how it would make sense; but if you saw it you'd understand anyway, it was such a genius concept; and Spike Jonze managed to turn it into just an average movie if they had gotten a really good director to handle it, M. Night Shyamalan(or someone of his ilk) maybe; it could've been beautiful after that we drove around for half an hour looking for a place for Erin to get something to eat man is she picky I don't mind driving around, as a matter of fact I love to drive; and I had a full tank of gas but for some reason it just bothers me to be driving around for no reason I guess it goes back to my extreme distaste for all things pointless but whatever after that we went to Andru's; I feel bad 'cause I was kind of a dick over there but oh well, it's not like I was a complete asshole and I wouldn't feel so bad if it wasn't the first time we really hung out if he knew that I'm not always like that then I wouldn't feel so bad but it's too late hopefully I'll have time to make a better impression Erin talked a lot about my stomach too probably because Andru has a serious stomach illness; and it's interesting that her little sister's friend has a similar problem as her friend but it's wierd, she seemed more concerned than my parents and she actually listened, instead of just telling me what's wrong without knowing; and how I should deal with it which makes her more concerned than my parents and my doctor combined which is sad; really and it was funny to hear Stephanie complain about how 'annoyed' she was with Evan 'cause he said he would hang out with her and he went and hung out with someone else instead she's done that to me several times ah, well I tried to avoid my mom all day today woke up after she went to work; went to the mall when she came home for her lunch-break; went out with Steph and Erin before she got home from work; and stayed out until after she went to bed my plan almost worked, but when I went into the kitchen to let the dog out and get a snack my mom came out there to adjust the thermostat she was only out there for a second and I managed to ignore her, so for the most part I guess I succeeded tomorrow I'll be ready to see her again; but I can't deal with her after last night that fucking sucked, in every way shape and form oh well, tomorrow I'm gonna go sell my Dreamcast at EB, and hopefully get enough money to buy something worthwhile hopefully Steph will call; if not I'll just go by myself I have no idea why I don't ever feel like hanging out with anyone else anymore I guess it's just because I haven't seen or talked to anyone else in so long; and it's always awkward hanging out with someone after you haven't talked to them in a while someday I'll get over that, I promise I just hope my Valentine was enough to make up for my assholery to Robyn and the entry will end with Brett typing about how the entry will end Sweet Dreams � � |
