I got Motion Sick during Hancock

[puppetmaker]

But I really enjoyed the film. I thought the plot held together well and the acting was uniformly great. The camera work was a bit shakier than my stomach could stomach. This is not the first time a film has caused me this problem. The worst had to be Mulholland Drive but there have been a couple of others. I think that Hancock is a big screen experience and I give Will Smith lots of credit for trying something very different from other things he has done. Also gets points for originality.

Today we are going to see the Dark Knight then Ariel and Peter are off to Shea for the last concert at the facility. I hope they have fun. Which reminds me, I need to charge a battery for their camera.

Back from plugging in the camera battery

This may be moot since they might not be letting fans take photos which is a crying shame. But still, be prepared.

Peter came up with a great idea for showing Disney how much we love the adventures club. Read about the great Map Quest for saving the Adventures Club. I encourage everyone to join in the fun.

I got in my list of stuff for DragonCon and I think I have my panels sorted out or rather which panels I am on. Now I have 30 days to work on everything since we are going to Toronto Expo. Start your stopwatches.

I am grateful that my lawn looks so much better today.

And what might your Dragon*Con panels be...? :)

Well currently the only one that I know about is my How to build a puppet for the Art Show track which would be 5:30 on Saturday.

I vote for another HP Costuming panel.

Nobody stopped us from bringing cameras into the Wednesday night show (and I took both stills and video), so they should be fine!

I hear Blair Witch Project was the all-time throw-up-from-jerky-camera-work movie.

With that recommendation, I didn't see it.

I haven't been to Disney since I was about 8, but I think I remember the place. I missed the chance to go back to Disney when I was 15, since my aunt was going the same week I had to go to Denver for the Pope's visit.

Hope your campaign to save it is successful.

p.s.
If I ever get to visit the States again, I hope to attend a DragonCon. Conventions were one of the reasons I seriously considered migrating.

*high-fives*

Let Peter know that Bryan and I think his idea is stellar, and that we are going to spread the word to all the sites we frequent.

Cloverfield was hell on my vertigo, but otherwise, a great movie. I expect to have the same reaction to Hancock, then.

Have fun at The Dark Knight. The boys are going to see it at the IMAX tomorrow, so it will be girls' night out. *plans outing*


I wish the lawn fairy would come and help me out, since the inside of the house is in dire need of cleaning and it's hot as blazes in Buffalo.

Did you get my email about lunch?

FWIW

I actually think Hancock is 2 excellent movies with each one cut in half and the opening of one is stapled to the close of the other.

The result is uneven.

Also going to see Dark Knight this evening

are you coming to GenCon too?

Like popfiend, my review of HANCOCK will not be as favorable as yours. It was a flawed film. Lots og great, but lots of not good at all.
