Stuff and things....

Venom? Really? You're going to make a spin-off Venom movie? And how, exactly, is Venom going to hold a movie? Are you going to make him a good guy? Ugh. *makes a face*

I keep going around and around in circles in my head. I feel as though I'm missing something. In any sort of entertainment if a character dies and it is just a death and it doesn't do anything for plot or character it is for no reason. If a character dies and it is for plot or character motivational reasons it is a fridging. (And for personal preference, I'm using the term for either gender as an accessable short hand. Get mad at me if you will.) There is another option of martyrdom, which is marginally better. I don't know where I'm going with this but I'm having a hard time figuring out deaths that aren't any of the above in fiction. I dislike it when there is no death in fiction since it feels silly to me when no one dies.

I don't know. I must be missing something. Or too good at arguing with myself.

Almost caught up at work.

Tired. Sore. The gym is kicking my ass. I still kind of hate it. At the same time, I like pushing myself.

I still want The Essential Batman Encyclopedia.

I'm still horrified at the idea of Keanu Reeves as Spike in a Cowboy Bebop movie.

The Watchmen posters are pretty awesome: http://blog.newsarama.com/2008/08/01/wb-releases-those-watchmen-posters/
