After months of having the new Pride & Prejudice in my queue both via Netflix and at the library, I finally got it from Netflix. I’m really not sure it was worth the wait. However, I am quite glad I didn’t watch it in the theater. To borrow from Jaeger’s vocabulary, I though it was “. . . meh.”
Speaking of movies, several weeks ago Jaeger and I went and watched V for Vendetta. I about had a heart attack when I saw how much common Saturday night movie tickets cost these days and remember thinking “If this isn’t a really good movie, I’m going to be very upset.” Fortunately, it was a very good movie. It’s probably going to make my list to buy.
I also did finally watch Aeon Flux. This movie had all the elements I typically love in a movie yet somehow it didn’t quite work for me. While watching the movie, I did find it mildly enjoyable it but afterwards nothing stuck with me. Maybe Aeon was a little too unstable for my tastes, I don’t know.
