I saw Serenity on Friday! It was so frickin' GOOD. Totally buying the DVD, when it comes out. All My Moneys Are Belong To Joss. GO SEE IT NOW.

And, for the skeptics in the crowd who think they will not enjoy it, I have a direct quote from one of my work buddies: "I've never seen the show, and I thought [the movie] was awesome." So there!

I may have to re-watch it in the theater, because I liked it that much. And also because I have a $5 gift certificate for Cinemark, but hey, that's cool. Better than spending it on that lame-o Jodie Foster movie where she loses her kid on an airplane. ;p

Incidentally, it totally chaps my hide that the Jodie Foster flick beat out a totally kick-in-the-pants awesome space western. You people have no taste.

Note that it's, "You people," as in, "you people who are not on my Friends List." Because I know you're all smarter than that. ^_-

In other entertainment news, WHAT THE CRAP, NICOLAS CAGE?

Don't get me wrong; superheroes are great fun, and it's cool if you're a comic book geek. I like a bit of geekery in a person. But naming your kid after Superman? That's just mean.

Should they ever meet, I can't promise that my kid won't totally beat up your kid. But then again, with a name like that, he'll be lucky if he goes through a day without receiving an Atomic Wedgie.

Weekend was equal parts Fun and Hellish. All the Fun can be attributed to my excellent friends. :) [livejournal.com profile] aleisha is here. A bunch of us got together for dinner on Saturday, and then lunch on Sunday. Did a BRD run with mixed results, but it was interesting, at least. :) [livejournal.com profile] barndawgg and [livejournal.com profile] shannidee are now on my WoW server, so I'll get to run around being all mage-y with them sometime soon, hopefully.

The Hellish bits mainly have to do with transporting a bunch of stuff from storage over 136 miles, at speeds not exceeding 45mph, and then shoehorning it all into our mostly-organized apartment. It probably wouldn't have seemed so bad if it hadn't rained steadily throughout the entire unloading process yesterday. ;p

Gizmo tried to stage another jail break on Saturday, although this time, it was totally not my fault. Also, because of all the extra stuff in the house, we hadn't noticed his escape until the neighbors called us a few minutes later, saying they had Gizmo in hand. So, I got to skip the Panic phase and go straight to the scolding. ;p

Today, I go back to the usual stuff. I'm freaking tired and don't want to do anything, but I need to get back to training.

Nick Cage's real name is Nicholas Coppola (he's Francis Ford's nephew) but he named himself Cage after some comic book, but can't remember which one. When I lived in NYC the guy at Midtown Comics used to complain to us about him, and how he would come in like every other day trying to prove to the comic book guy that he was like HARD CORE COMIC NERD, and everyone found it to be a little weird.

He changed his name to Nick Cage after Luke Cage.

Kal-El? I thought the article was going to say that he had named his son "Clark Kent Cage" or something. Kal-El is, like, a million times worse.

I can also vouch for people who have not seen the series - I have not seen the series but thought the movie was reallysuperawesome on several levels.

Okay, Superman is my favorite superhero, but... Kal-El? Oh man. I was already going, "OMG" thinking "Clark Kent Cage". Well.

I totally loved Serenity, too. I'm going again this week sometime with my dad. Probably making him watch an episode or two of the show as well.

Well, if he's lucky he'll smarten up and just go by Kal his entire life. Which isn't too bad. Not a great name, but not bully-inducing either.
