musings

I forgot to mention in my last post that I’ve added a link to my friend Maki’s site (TraumaQueen). Maki and I used to work together at Square, back in the late 90′s. She’s got some great art, an online comic, and a blog. Go now!

Paula, Cy and I went to see Mr. and Mrs. Smith tonight. It’s not a great movie – my major complaint being the start-stop pacing – but it is a heck of a lot of fun. There are some awkward puns, some neat in-jokes, and about 15 million bullets, but mostly there’s the Brad Pitt – Angelina Jolie chemistry. I’m not actually a particularly big fan of either of them (but now that I think about it, Brad Pitt was truly amazing in Twelve Monkeys, Kalifornia, Snatch, True Romance, and Fight Club, so I guess I’m letting some of his poorer movies, like the truly awful The Devil’s Own, taint my opinion of his skills) but they had great chemistry in this movie.

And I don’t care what Cy says, Angelina looked dead hot. I don’t think she’s ever looked better.
