Headache

14 07 2007

Yes, I have an annoying pain in my head after watching Harry Potter (and the Order of the Phoenix, for the record) and then playing on the Wii with Elliot, Vivan and alternate siblings for many, many hours yesterday. Elliot also complains of brain pain having had multiple injections. I thought Harry Potter was okay. I didn’t like it but that doesn’t mean it’s not good, right? I’m just pissed off that all films can’t be like The Matrix! Vivan didn’t seem to understand why I preferred it over V for Vendetta which is, incidentally, also one of my favourites. I think the reason is that The Matrix is full of little details and ironies. The way Neo is “plugged in” to his headphones and sleeping and is later in a small cubicle representing the pods and works for a software company and the way Smith tells him that one of his lives has a future without specifying which one and it turns out to be the other life and all the stuff that people have found - it’s just a much more interesting and well thought-out experience, even if there are goofs and stuff. Its metaphorical functions became stretched with the sequels so I can’t properly defend them. For some reason Psyche doesn’t render at all in Internet Explorer - there must be something wrong with my CSS. My life seems to be full of extremes. What I know will either mean a lot or nothing. I don’t want it to mean nothing! I DON’T!

Spambot? It’s not that honest

Obviously you have not read in to V for Vendetta. It also has many details and ironies, similar to The Matrix. One reason that I prefer V for Vendetta is that I haven’t actually seen The Matrix the whole way through.

*into

Apart from everything being miraculously related to the number five or the letter V, what is there (please tell me, I don’t actually know)?

I shall enlighten you at a later point in time. Assuming that the universe does not implode to a point before that point in time.
