What I want to know is …

Did I just receive some sort of valid book forward, or is it some new
form of SPAM created by something that’s trolling Livejournal accounts?

I received an email about a book that said that it “perhaps” was from
novapsyche or atropis, but was cagey about it.

Unrelatedly, Aquent is still sending me messages about their contract positions. I’ve been receiving emails from Wunderlich, and I’m just amused by that name, especially after the D&D conversation of the other day.

Also Wik, I saw Aeon Flux last night, and I must say that I was pleased by it. I was a big fan of it during the Liquid Television days, but the trailer really turned me off of it. The animation was a surrealist exploration of an unconventional futuristic society where the protagonist, essentially, dies every episode. I heard she had her own actual show for awhile, but I never saw it.

Anyway, Charlize, from all accounts, dedicated herself to the point where she did 95% of the (rather stunning) stunts, believing that you had to get as close as possible to actually performing these stunts if you wanted to dive into a role like this.

Considering the constraints that a Hollywood script puts on a movie, I rather enjoyed it. The visual elements were first-rate, and I’d consider buying it just so I could put in a DVD when I need a total change of atmosphere.

I particularly enjoyed watching some of the DVD extras. I drooled the hell over the still photographer’s equipment. Sorry, dude.

  7. yeah I just watched it too… I’m lukewarm about it. There were a number of ‘cool’ moments, but it wasn’t this amazing movie that I’m going to remember for years or decades… *shrug* it was decent, for what it was. Nothing like Equilibrium, which it reminded me of in a way.
