featherynscaleIt's always a good morning when the headlines include the phrase Galactic Spaceport, isn't it?
Also, we spent some time at EHQ last night watching the old Aeon Flux cartoons. I now understand why I continually have dreams about reaching into my skin and pulling out gadgets, or putting them in. Too much time watching Aeon Flux in college, apparently, since in virtually every short there is some moment at which one of the characters does this. Which is good. For a moment there, I thought it was just the way I was. Much easier to blame the media, no? Watching the cartoons again also mitigated some of my major criticisms of the film (which![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Date: 2005-12-13 06:57 pm (UTC)I recall at some point (back in my hazy former life) seeing the dossier or whatever it was marketed as, and going, "I should get that", but alas, it never came to pass.
One of the bits on the tape we were watching was the one where he makes a bunch of Aeon-clones (one of whom is actually the original) and then is disinterested in her/them because they act like they want to sleep with him. It's a complicated relationship, theirs.
