Brought Doctor Strange on Monday and it was as good as I
remember it being, although still some issue with replacing the Asian ancient one
with a Celtic ancient one. Were there no Asian actors available? But on the other
hand, Tilda Swinton is a very good actor. Maybe there could have added a line
about how the ancient one is reincarnated and that is why ‘he’ is currently a
woman. Would have avoided a lot of the claims of racism. Once Doctor Strange
has possibly my favourite joke/line in all of the Marvel films:
Kaecilius: How long have you been in Kamar-Taj, Mister...?
Dr. Stephen Strange: Doctor!
Kaecilius: Mister Doctor?
Dr. Stephen Strange: It's Strange!
Kaecilius: Maybe, who am I to judge?
And the scene were Doctor Strange’s astral body is sent
flying around the universe/multiverse is still trippy as flip and disorientating
as heck.
Tuesday was pretty much a ‘day-off’ chilling, sorting out a
load of tapes to mp3s and not much else.
Wednesday was new comic book day:
I also ordered the ‘The Thing’ artbook (http://printedinblood.com/artbook_thething.html), the preview
art and sneak peeps have left me very excited to see the art ‘live’, and I sent
time thinking about the new job application, but not actually typing up the
application!
Thursday was also sent thinking about the new job
application, but not actually typing up the application!!! Must remedy this
tomorrow.
