Listening to: "Shizuku" - Miwako OkudaI saw X-men 3 last night. It was interesting to say the least. As a movie, it rocked; as X-men...I'm not so sure. I was okay w/ some of the changes, but there were things that just didn't seem to fit the X-men universe. A lot of my nitpicking is w/ the characterization. However, most of the major players were well done. I especially liked Beast and Angel. Of course, there was much screen time for Wolverine (seeing as the previous 2 movies also revolved around him). It's definitely worth seeing, but if you're a big X-men fan, just remember that this is someone else's interpretation of the comics.
Today Russell hosted a barbecue for several of us summer residents. After eating, it wound up just being most of the movie room crew (like it always is). Phil and Parker were at it again w/ their weird ideas, spurred on by their friend Tristan. Elyse and Eric dropped by as well. Again my little mishap at dinner earlier this year was brought up (for those of y'all who don't know the story, I proved Parker's stereotype that Asians can't jump sideways to be true ^^;;). They're never gonna let me forget about it.
