My Brain is Dead

[beatriceeagle]

I think my brain has stopped working the way it used to.



So I saw Disturbia today. And during the scene were Detective Tritter(!) is chasing Stanley Yelnats/Louis Stevens(!!!) out of the house, and Stanley is desperately trying to cross the line that will trigger his house arrest anklet and alert the police, all I can think is...

Reference! Reference! They're referencing the scenes from the beginning where he leaned out of the lawn and tripped over himself keeping the anklet inside the line. It's a parallel. It's a thematic statement.

I need to stop writing meta.



And on a Disturbia note, best quote of the year: "It's like reality without the TV!"

Did you like the guy who played Ronnie? I grew up with that guy! Wonder if he's any good.... I'm going to see it eventually, just added it to the bottom of my Netflix queue. :)

He was awesome.

And spoke Spanish in his first scene.

And was awesome.

And cool! That puts me...three degrees from Shia Lebouf.

Does that mean I'm four degrees from Stanley Yelnats?

The math computes! :D According to imdb, you're also three degrees from Kevin Spacey, Kate Bosworth, and Laurence Fishburne.. hee :)
