So... I got my diploma today.

It came in the mail. It's a nice white piece of paper that says Beloit College says I've got a degree.

Woohoo! time to have a graduation party!!

Oh, and Batman tonight. Awesome. Ledger's Joker is way scary. One thing about the movie though: A friend had pointed out that it seemed to be more a movie about people whose connection to each other was Batman, rather than a movie about Batman. I would tend to agree with that assessment. That's not a criticism of the movie. It's a great story. Just an observation.

Did I mention, the Joker, scary?

I love it when movies make me hold my breath without realizing I'm doing it.

But big news if you haven't seen it: Watchmen trailer! Holy mother of god (that would be of any god...). I don't go to opening nights. I wait until the 2nd week or try to catch a matinee to avoid the crowds.

...I might take the day off and get in line first thing in the morning opening day for Watchmen. The trailer's out there in the tubes being carried back and forth by tiny dump trucks if you haven't seen it yet. Now, I'd seen it online and I knew it looked good. The music choice was inspired. But seeing it on the big screen was just fucking outstanding.

Current Mood: bouncy

Congratulations!

Agreed.

And yes, the Watchmen trailer is really something else. I was totally obsessed with it for 2-3 days last week. I've read that the director has fought hard to keep it authentic and I believe even Alan Moore hates it as little as he could possibly hate any Watchmen movie that would actually get made.

Yay! We get our fancy pieces of paper at the same time(ish)!

That makes me soooo happy!

(I suddenly had this thought about little "Fraggle Rock"-style dump trucks bringing you your diploma. The little "Dozers" tip their cute little hardhats to you and say in their little voices, "congratulations"! Yes, I'm weird, but it's cute!)
