i had no sooner gotten home from work when i got a call from sara asking whether i wouldn't mind eating with her while she took a break from her schoolwork. one quick(ish) stop at sitwell's for a mocka (mine) and a ginger oolong tea (hers), i was over at her apartment, and i put on kaiju big battel. sara hadn't seen it yet, and... well... i just friggin love it. check out their site -- it's guys doing pro-wrestling in japanese-style monster costumes. awesome.

after we ate (and watched a bit of zoolander), i went back to my place. gabe's plans had fallen through, so he bright over his netflix copy of the special edition of alien resurrection. as with alien III, i hadn't seen it yet, and so the special edition was perfect for me. overall, i liked the film a lot, though i thought winona ryder was a bit out of place. milla would have been a better choice, but then she's always a better choice. :)

but yeah, it was good. which means that i actually like all four non-predator alien movies. weird. i guess i'd heard they sucked. i don't know.
