Some of my friends should get this--a reference to the Joke That Will Not Die...in bed.

Okay, I'll explain the jokes for the benefit of the rest of cyber-space. Basically, I created a monster and started two jokes that Will. Not. Die. The "in bed" joke comes from my mother, of all people. Basically, it's a fortune cookie game. Read your fortune cookie out loud, and then add the words "in bed" to the end of it. You get some pretty interesting stuff.

The "of Evil" joke comes from a fanfiction. I was talking about the villain. Here it is, if anyone's interested. BTW, can anyone tell that I finally learned how to do LJ cuts?

And so it all began...in other news, the Kaitou Kid DVD is most awesome. In which Kid is sexy, and Heiji is adorable. Also, Facebook is crazy, but fun. I also hate Methods.

So I saw Corpse Bride last night--the Midnight Movie as part of the Homecoming Week festivities. I herded my friends up at about 10:15, and we were there at 10:30. The movie didn't start until 11:30. Crazy? Not so much. We were the first ones in line, and by the time they opened the door, the line stretched down the street and around the corner, so we got good seats. For about the first twenty or thirty minutes, we played Duck, Duck, Goose to keep warm, as it is currently freezing here. But anyway, we saw the movie; I had high expectations, considering that it's Tim Burton. Well...I give you my mini-review.

THE GOOD
- Interesting concept
- Cool animation
- Very stylistic
- Awesome score (including some great piano music)
- Some really great sight-gags and jokes
- One UBER-KICK-ASS dance sequence with skeletons and black-lights
- Johnny Depp ^.^

THE NOT-SO-GOOD
- Underdeveloped characters (give me development or give me death!)
- Weak songs
- Very short
- Villain just kind of...appears (he just walks in with absolutely NO explanation whatsoever)
- Lacked...color (it was a very grey movie...)
- Whiskey tango foxtrot?? ending

That's the basics. All in all, I enjoyed myself, but I was not over-the-top impressed. The ending especially irritated me. It pretty much just stopped. It really needed about two more minutes to wrap things up for the other characters. It's cute, it's got some stuff going for it, but overall The Nightmare Before Christmas was far, far better.
