yendiOkay, I don't care what others think. I liked this movie. A lot. You know how I always defend the Disney version of The Three Musketeers as being a damned near perfect adaptation of the theme of the Dumas book, as opposed to the actual plot? That's what The Hulk is. It's spot-on in capturing the feel of the Stan Lee run (with a little backstory from the Peter David run, but the feel is definitely Lee). Not perfect -- the climax is underwhelming -- but still damned fun.
Started Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix this morning. I'm only a few pages in, and I've avoided spoilers, but I do want to know when Jean Grey or Rachael Summers shows up and starts bossing Harry around.
Today is busy day, as work didn't seem to stop around here even though I was gone for five days. Weird.
In national news, Lestor Maddox died yesterday. He's a man who deserves no mourning, and won't get a lick of it from me.
And the Supreme Court overturned the Texas Sodomy law. Scalia's dissent continues to show that he either completely doesn't get the Constitution, or just plain doesn't like it. Either way, he's a hypocritical asshat who really has no right being on the Court.
Oh, and someone else did another one of those silly yearbook polls (which I still maintain are a horrible thing, by the way, so please don't ask me to vote in yours or even pimp it), and I appear to have tied a bunch of people (including![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kenhighcountry, storme, and daoistraver, but since I don't have the link on-hand, I don't remember them) as "most laid-back," to which I can only say, "whatever."
Work beckons. So does that damned book. I'll let them fight it out.
