May. 20th, 2004 10:54 pmI have different things to say:
Saw Troy last night. I have a feeling I have a major new fandom coming this way, because I felt the same way I did the first time I saw LOTR, and you all know what that lead to! But all in all I thought it was a great movie. It had its fault, of course (just like LOTR and HP), but most things were right. Now I need to read The Iliad again, just to find more faults! Like, where does Achilles new armor come from? I mean, Patroclus was wearing them, and in The Iliad he gets the new ones from his mother, who asks Zeus to make them. So, yes. And, how would they explain the fact that both Helen and Andromache were taken captive and sold as slaves, when both of the escape in the end of the movie? Stuff like that...
Today has been quite boring. Since I have my last written exam tomorrow, math, I've just solved various math problems today. But I don't feel ready and there's crap I can do now.
I've realised that the zit I thought I had near my eye is actually a sty. But I don't really know what that is anyway... But it hurts like hell!
Will go to bed now...
