Things That Start With An 'S' And Other Letters

David and I went to see Speed Racer tonight. Well, truth be told, I went to see the Twilight Teaser Trailer on the big screen. Which might I add, was really really so much better than the video. You really get a full experience. And the girl next to D gasped when she saw that it was Twilight and she talked with her friend about the books. But back to Speed Racer. I am a huge Emile Hirsch fan and I wanted to be surprised and like this movie. I did find it to be the most colorful film I've ever seen. The graphics were amazing... but I just didn't care. I was bored. And it surprised me because it had a really good cast; Susan Sarandon, John Goodman, Christina Ricci--who's too old for Emile, Scott Porter and Matthew Fox. I thought it would tickle me at least. But really in the end I just felt disenchanted. So much for Joel Silver wowing me. Wachowski Brothers or no, it was may just too aimed at the PG-13 crowd.

Last night I watched a terrible show with Robert Pattinson and Julian Sands in it called The Haunted Airman. It was confusing and really quite boring. It was about a chain smoking, paranoid, war veteran and in the end... well I won't give it away. Someone might be sad enough to want to watch it.

I have been reading Stardust the last few days. It's a little book and it shouldn't be taking me so long but I'm hypomanic and I am having trouble with concentration. I figure this has been my problem the last week and because it's very different experience while medicated then it is normally, I didn't really notice what was going on. I'm enjoying it but I can't stand the witch. I want to skip her parts. I love Septimus though. I find the Star annoying. I sort of hope that Victoria marries a chud farmer while Tristran is gone. I guess I am just sort of evil like that. I just think he's very silly about a girl that doesn't deserve him.

Tomorrow D and I are going to Torrance to pick up my tickets to the Stephenie Meyer book signing on 22 May. I am hoping to get my Twilight book signed while we are there. I paid the money they should let me get whatever book I want signed. I plan to ask tomorrow while we are there. I also want to ask if they plan to do a book release party for Breaking Dawn in August. It's kind of far to go at midnight. I would rather go to one up here but I haven't been able to find anyone with thoughts for a book release party then.
