Fangirl strikes back
Jun. 2nd, 2004 08:27 am( First, because I am a lemming, the anime meme... )
So I stopped at Target last night, minding my own business, just there to get some cat food and I happened to walk past the DVD display. Guess what movie has been re-re-released with all kinds of new bells and whistles just in time for its sequel? Yeah, Pitch Black.
It was in my hands before I even remembered reaching for it, and I was scanning the back for new goodies. There are lots, but my pragmatic side reminded my fangirl side that we could probably rent this or borrow this version from someone else. The fangirl pouted and whined, but finally shut up when reminded of our recently broken tooth, upcoming move, and lack of money. Though she did press about finding details out about the upcoming Riddick game. Of course it's for XBox...*sigh*
Anyway, made it home with only the items I'd intended to buy and finally got to settle in with Aelf and watch the extra goodies on the ROTK DVD. We kinda MST3K'd the National Geographic special (well really, it was rather silly), but got all goopey over the trailers and such. We've also both heard murmurings that there will be another Trilogy Tuesday this year. Dude, I am so there.
Oh and I heard on the radio this morning, and just confirmed at the Caltrain site that this weekend and next they're starting service again and you can ride both weekends absolutely free! They're apparently also having a festival on Saturday at the 4th and King station and Sharkie's supposed to be there. Hmm, wonder if anybody else from the Sharks might show up... Ahem, anyway, free fare up to SF sounds very tempting to me.
One last thing, is anybody planning to brave the crowds to catch Azkaban this weekend? I'm dithering on whether or not to just wait a few weeks for this one. On the other hand Chronicles of Riddick comes out the next weekend and Spider Man 2 not too long after that, then there will be moving madness so this might be the best time to do it. Undecided...
