Couple of things:
There are a couple of good looking Zombie movies coming out soon. Plus, I guess there's a new one from George Romero. Ba-ZING! That's right, I just pwnd Romero. Night and Dawn are two of the best zombie--nay, horror films in the history of films. For serious. But I can't tell you the last time I said "Hmmm...think I'll watch Day of the Dead today." Doesn't happen. IMHO they just get worse from there. For me, zombies are so freakin' scary that you don't have to try very hard to scare me with them. But there are so many hundreds of terrible zombie movies out there. And most of them aren't even made by Uwe Boll. People will insist on destroying the things I love.
Could be worse, I could be a Vampire fan. ;-[
I'm working tomorrow. Now that I only work one Saturday a month, I hate having to go in on Saturdays. Odd because I've worked EVERY Saturday at pretty much any other job I've ever had.
I have a rather intense girl-crush on Helena Bonham Carter. Not sure what took me so long. I was resistive to her in the beginning because a) most of her characters didn't really resonate with me b) Tim Burton put her in EVERY goddamn movie he made for like, 200 years straight. Now she does all kinds of chicks I love like Mrs Lovett and Bellatrix. I'm stoked as hell to see her as the Red Queen.
In re: the "profiling" cop and the Harvard professor? I think it's very reasonable for a cop to ask a guy in a house for ID when he's responding to a call about a suspected robbery. This situation just sounds like two guys acting like dicks than anything racially motivated. I bet they're each good guys put on edge; which led to them both being reactive rather than rational. Too bad. I do think the cop should be held to a higher standard than an average citizen. Most of us don't get to be our full, genuine self when we're working. We edit ourselves in the name of professionalism.
Yeah, cops make me uncomfortable, but I'm polite because it's stupid not to be. And yeah, a cop can arrest you for not showing him ID and getting belligerent, but should he? Prolly not. I'm glad to know they'll be getting together with Obama for a beer to sort it all out. I'm sure that after that happens, racism will be over and I can take H to meet my parents. Or not.
Talked to my new editor via the Electronic Mail. She seems pretty smart. I'm annoyed that she wants the manuscript split up into chapters and sent as separate documents. There are 67 chapters. C'mon. And she can't open zip files for some reason I can't fathom. Frown. Anyway, I'm turning it in on Monday or more likely Sunday night. I have no idea what I'll be working on next. I'll surely be taking a writing break to get some books read and some movies watched.
