frayadjacentI finally saw Pacific Rim last night. At home, on my 15-inch laptop, just as it was meant to be seen. And now I:
1. know what y'all are talking about when you say "drift compatible". I had no idea that was from Pacific Rim. I thought it was one of those funny fandom things.
2. can watch those vids I've been holding off on for two+ years!
3. am pretty sure I'd have enjoyed it a lot more in the theater. I used to think of going to the movies as a bit of a waste of money, but since I moved (and I have a much higher disposable income!) I've come to enjoy it.

Comedies only if I'm fairly certain it'll be super funny bc I hate it when people are laughing a lot and stuff just isn't funny. I hate it. :p

But then Tony Stark said, "am I the only one who did the reading?" and I laughed so hard...all by myself. I guess no one else in the theatre had quite as many years of reading and discussion group experience as me.
ETA: oh hello, icon -- that must be Alice!
