Friday

(few) thoughts occur...

Reeta and I have often talked about the idea of doing he said/she said movie reviews. We both like movies, and sometimes our viewpoints differ wildly. Reeta has acquired a taste for testosterone-drenched action movies (at least, she's willing to sit through them). I've been pleasantly surprised by the occasional "chick flick" (Down with Love, I thought, was kind of funny - in a sort of Capra on downers kind of way). So, we're considering starting that on a semi-regular basis. Goodness knows that with Netflix around, we won't have a shortage of movies to choose from, at least on a weekly basis.
Here's the thing. I'm trying to decide what to call that. The best we've come up with so far is "He Said/She Said Movie Reviews", which is informative, but seems to be missing a certain snappiness. So, gentle readers, any suggestions? Something better than my second best, "Z said, Ree said"?
In other news, I seem to have put on a few extra pounds. That's the last time I buy a twelve-pack of soda. (Ah, LiveWire Dew, how thou dost mock me!).
Excercised last night, and the night before. Last night, I burned something like 400 calories, according to the machine. So, if I do that consistently, it'll help, right?
In still other news, Orson Scott Card is penning the plot to a video game. Actually, to a planned trilogy of video games. Being a Card fan, and a gaming fan, I immediately geek out whenever I think of Advent Rising. There's screenshots and a trailer up at the website. The interface is actually the glowing orbs in the upper left corner.
