Yep … any time of the year when Lord of the Rings comes out is glorious. I went with 12 other people at 9PM on Wednesday to see the latest installment, The Two Towers, at Crossroads 20. I must say that coming out I wasn’t all glorious and happy-like as I was coming out of FOTR. As a movie I loved it. But, as TTT I had some issues.
The whole Aragorn falling off the cliff and dying thing bothered me and while I can see the reason I just thought the Osgilliath and Faramir thing could have been done differently and not so drastically different from the book. Though, one has to wonder how much of the changes were the fault of New Line Cenema and not PJ. Overall I’d go see it again and I’m just as excited about ROTK as before … Go see it.
I stayed out to about 1AM last night hangin’ with my “urban tribe.” We’d just finished up running Arising Light Productions one act musical called “The Light.” I ran sound … or acted like I did. Then we hit the Golden Coral then back to Meredith’s.
I have news for you … It’s two days to Christmas. Is it just me or does it not really feel like that? I’m definitely not in the “Christmas spirit” as they say. I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad. But I’m definitely having issues with the whole Christmas presents thing. I think I’ll just settle for feeling horrid about getting things for ppl and not giving anything in return.
Saturday I went to a LAN party at Mark’s. w00t! … I’d been waiting all semester for that. We played some Battlefield 1942 and C&C Renegade. Both of them are ok, but not as much blood as I like.
Well, back to the PHP programming. GoRobotics.net version 3.0 is coming along nicely. I’m still hoping for a Jan 1 release date, but I’m having some trouble with finding a host.
