Saw a few headlines this morning that were still referencing Hallowe'en. It felt so yesterday.
That said, I also feel somewhat moved to recap Dana & my Hallowe'en.
I'll try to keep it quick.
There was nothing but scary movies on TV.
That probably shouldn't have surprised us, but having all the channels we have with Telus Optik might have made us think we had some more options. Which we did. Just that it was more channels playing scary movies, pretty much.
With that, I formulated a somewhat impromptu plan to record two of these scary movies that were marginally 1) interesting and 2) less gratuitously gory than the rest.
We ended up with 1) Underworld: Rise of the Lycans; and 2) Daybreakers.
Dana will likely not be a big fan that I'm giving any prop's to Daybreakers.
I won't say they're major props, but the movie's stuck with me.
Along with another biggie movie this year, Avatar, a sticky thought is out there (at least in my brain):
we might be the bad guys.
I'm far from endorsing either of these movies as must-see's (I'd go for Toy Story 3 first. Then maybe Inception) but it's kind of a neat thought.
In some ways it feels like society's taken this long in its evolution to be able to admit that.
And in a lot of ways we're not totally ready to admit it. And perhaps never really will...
Regardless, if we get to any TV tonight it will likely be much much lighter fare:
Chuck and the subsequent Women of SNL special come to mind.
