TITLE: sunshine: the saga continues
file under: my life
i've ranted about my efforts to try to see Sunshine, the sci-fi effort by Danny Boyle. i have a new update to the saga.
i was trying to plan a movie night with friends to watch it here on my new big screen HDTV (aka Wank-o-vision), but i had to wait until it was out on rental. i figured a month or two after our aborted attempts to see the film, we'd be munching popcorn, having cocktails, and watching the gorgeous vision of Mr. Boyle. not so.
i waited. and waited. and waited. and amazon didn't post a DVD release date. and now i check back, and it's January 8, 2008. are you kidding me? from a theatrical release of July 20, 2007? this is the modern age, people. digital means everything is faster, mmkay?
i am certain, now, that when i get this movie from netflix, the disc will be scratched, and i will send it back for another one, and before it comes back, my house will be struck by lightning and burn to the ground. i will never see this movie.

What would really be cosmically tragic is if the sun exploded on January 7th.

What are you going to do if you don't even LIKE the movie???

at this point, given the murphy's law nature of the world, i will probably hate it. that would be even worse than the sun going nova on January 7, which means it has a higher probability of happening.
