This is mostly about Angels & Demons.

Blahh, I suck at remembering to actually *post* in this thing! And I accidentally hit the enter button so it sent my postless title to the blog. I guess I'm just that clever. =P

Well, anyway, there is not much really new with me - never is, actually. I've been reading and now I have this obsession with Dan Brown's books. I'm re-reading Angels & Demons for like the third or fourth time, maybe even the fifth? I don't keep track. And I think I'm starting to develop a crush on Robert Langdon. Not Tom Hanks in the movie, the book character in my head. He's all bookish and has this deep voice and he's a teacher! And I imagine him to be handsome besides. XP My Robert Langdon is better than Hanks, even though I don't really mind him.

Which reminds me: I've already seen Angels & Demons twice in the past two weeks. Geekish, yes. But I saw National Treasure 2 five times while it was in theaters. Because I am just that awesome. Anyway, about the movie. I liked it, even though there were so many difference from the book that I couldn't count them on all my fingers if I had six hands. But the acting was done well, I think. It's a story that just pulls you (well, me) in. It's interesting, it makes you think.

And I randomly thought the guy who played the killer was kind of good looking. Is that weird? I think it's weird. But I'm disturbed, as my blog title clearly states. And so was Ewan McGregor, kind of. I liked his accent. And the actress they picked for Vittoria was a good choice, I think. She's my other favorite besides Langdon, so that says something.

And I wanna know what's up with all this A&D bashing by religious people. It's just a book/movie. Sure, Brown's work casts the church in a not so good light sometimes. But really, it's a harmless piece of fiction. Maybe instead of boycotting the film, they should boycott all the people who take it so seriously they get the facts mixed up with fiction. And besides, it's not like Dan Brown is anti-Christian or anything. He just twists facts around to fit his purposes, and since it's only a book, I think that's forgiveable.

And my head really itches. What's up with that?
