My thoughts, let me show you them

[krislaughs]

1. You know what's an AWESOME movie (if you're not epileptic)? SPEED RACER is. Why did no one tell me this? I wanted to see it when it came out in the theaters, and it took me until yesterday to get it on Netflix, and OMG! It's shiny and fast, implausible, cheesy as hell and makes no excuses. It has the catchy theme song (Go Speed Racer) and the catchy theme (one guy against the MAN) and the kid from The Kids are Alright is in it, and and and... I want to watch it again!!

2. I am so inordinately amused by Tina Fey. Almost as much as I am by Sarah Palin. Less by the government in general (although I might've laughed out loud when I read the news this afternoon).

3. You know what else is awesome? SGA is. I finally got to watching First Contact after the furor of the debate died down, and it was GREAT. By far the best episode of the season, reminded me why I got hooked on the stargate verse in the beginning-- except now I have to wait TWO WHOLE WEEKS to see what happened!

4. I just discovered the best easy curry dinner EVER. It's Spaa natural foods. You heat the packet of curry and rice in the microwave while sautée-ing some fresh veggies (pre-cut mushrooms, broccoli, and green onion) and tofu, throw it all together, and PRESTO. Awesome Thai curry in less than ten minutes.

4a. I made chipotle apples for a pot luck dinner on Saturday, and they were a surprisingly big hit. Easy, too. Basically, you sautée thinly sliced apples with brown sugar, cinnamon, a little oil, and chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (to taste) until it's one sweet and spicy mess.

5. The title for the last Spn ep? STILL cracks me up. I am conflicted about whether I will watch the VP debate (which should be hilarious) and DVR this week's episode. Or vice versa.
I'm highly amused that of all the major networks, only CW doesn't suspend programming for the presidential debate series-- although it was funnier when the choice was Obama-McCain or Friday Night Smackdown...

6. HEROES! PETER! SYLAR! MICAH! What can I say?? I'm not even going to speculate.

(7. Gosh, it looks like I'm watching a lot of TV this week.)

SGA concerns me. My hands-down favourite character was in that last scene. That cliffhanger worries me. Especially since my character isn't the Hero.

ohhh, but they won't kill him off. No way. I might stop watching if they do. (I have a secret theory that they collapsed the shield down onto themselves the moment before. yes yes.)

[framlingem.livejournal.com]

Ooh, that is a good secret theory. He's just clever enough to think of it, too. Especially since they didn't actually SHOW the shield failing, only the effects of the shield no longer containing the explosion.

#5. I'M SO TORN!!!!

I know, right?!?!

I have a feeling it's going to be a late night, what with the watching of and squeeing over both. (I can't wait to count the gaffes and feet-in-mouth betwen the veep candidates. FDR on TV, indeed...)

Oh dear. I just read a spoiler that may tip me over the fence. :\

Why do I click those tags? WHY?

[krisomniac.livejournal.com]

ut oh!! I'm not even going to ask (although I really want to. Just tell me, does it mean there really IS going to be more Sammy?)

I have a feeling my choice will be determined by the other supernatural & debate fan in the house, personally...

THAT MOVIE IS AWESOME.

I saw it in the theater. I just bought it on DVD. XD

Heh, Sarah Palin practically makes fun of herself, without Tina Fey's help. I saw part of her (Palin's) interview with Katie Couric and she comes across as a real moron.

Oo, those Chipotle Apples sound great! :D
