I really did love it. In some ways, I loved the series better; grittier, slower to spring its surprises on you, more inclined to sit back and laugh over a meal than to have a big ol’ science fiction space chase. Nonetheless, damn fine movie and I’ll see it again (probably wait for the DVD for that, but I will see it again). See it, you won’t be disappointed. Rich, complex characters, big shiny adventure, interesting moral dimensions, scary stuff, funny stuff, and a bit of sex.
Arthur got sick. Arthur never gets sick and there he is with a big bad sore throat and a cough and intermittently a fever on opening weekend. How much did that suck? But I restrained my urge to go alone and we had a lovely evening of it tonight. No school tomorrow, so a movie and a leisurely dinner during which I enjoyed the pleasures of Sam Adams Octoberfest beer.
Damn, and I don’t get paid for ANY of these plugs!
Yeah I caught him online because I was sick also. Glad you saw it as I had no interest in going.
And yet you loved it.
