2008-01-02 : aliens!
I have found the blog of a local stranger on the net and am devouring it eagerly. It�s remarkably interesting and her writing style is amusing.

I wonder what whoever owns the blog would think if she realized someone was reading it and going through all her entries. She�d prolly go ballistic and scream stalker.

I know I would. It�s quite strange sometimes to realize that people who you never knew were reading your blog are indeed reading your blog, most of the time without your knowledge until they break stealth with a neat little Tag, which leaves you slightly Disturbed.

We went for a movies today. Actually it was two movies, but AVP2 was so bad it doesn�t get to count as a movie.

The only reason someone would watch a movie like AVP2 is to see an alien and a predator trashing each other. We can accept an utter lack of coherent storyline, poor acting and other things, but for the love of predators give us our AVP action. The movie consisted mostly of cheap horror film tricks and people getting killed in horrible ways by aliens.

The one predator who flew down to Earth to kick alien butt was old, half-deaf, couldn�t use a weapon properly and basically made so much noise he was predated countless times by aliens when he shouldn�t have been.

The action fight CGI big-explosions-and-effects porn I was waiting to see lasted all of 10 minutes, and about 3 minutes of those were filler.

The way AVP works is,
1. Alien (s) fights Predator(s) for half the movie
2a. Alien trashes predator.
3a. Predator dies, but selfdestructs, killing all aliens.
2b. Predator trashes alien.
4. Humans caught in the crossfire somehow win in the end through illegitimate use of nukes or something.
5. Everyone goes home happy.

The way this movie went was:
1. Aliens kill predator.
2. Aliens kill humans.
3. Aliens kill more humans.
4. Aliens kill still more humans.
5. Alien fights predator, nobody wins because humans nuke the city toward the end of the fight.
6. Yours truly is very dissatisfied.

Anyway. I am going to bed instead of dotaing with the guys because I want to sleep and chance is item-running in WoW.
