Geekery, ho!

It'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 triadruid and I saw and were mildly disappointed in on Sunday). Not only is Martin Csokas not creepy enough to be Trevor Goodchild, but also no person alive on this earth could be creepy enough to be Trevor Goodchild, so I think that's okay. Clearly, the filmmakers were up against impossible odds.

What doesn't kill us makes us stranger...

I never thought I'd say this, but I don't think Oldman can do creepy enough.

Okay then. This is some serious creepiness. I confess that I do not know for certain what we're about here. I've watched maybe 20 minutes of Aeon Flux altogether. We'd catch bits of it on MTV every so often, and it always seemed to be the same part of the same episode every time. Very strange.

Crispin Glover?

Hm. He's pretty damn creepy, you're right. I don't recall hearing him...like, talk lately.

Well, one can't go by the vocals in the Back to the Future films.
