cavalock: the original suffers from "telling" instead of "showing". I love teh soundtrack from teh movie. Completely electronic. Best use of a theremin I have ever heard.
barbara: the second one is definitely much punchier. Apparently, the music is from Batman Begins.
I never liked Star Wars. I though tit seriously lacked a plot and I was not blon away by the special effects. I remember thinking, "I still see the blue screen fringing. How is this a leap forward?"
really big difference. hehehe. the second video didn't have any words except for monster of id but you'll be encouraged to watch the film. for the first video, i think i'll agree that it's an unusual film. hehehe ;p
tin-tin: either way, it is still the same movie. While a bit dated, I still think it is a great movie. Probably a bit slower than what modern audiences are into, though, but I think the climax is well worth it.

Borrowing and modifying an idea from Ingrid , I present 14 bits of information about myself. Seven are real. Seven are false. This is also partially inspired by Carra 's post about weird things about herself. When I was into model rocketry, I used to roll my own rocket engines and make my own rocket fuel. I often had "catastrophic" engine failure. I have never been intoxicated. Not even a little bit "happy". I have had the privilege and pleasure of going out with women from every continent except Antarctica (for the obvious reason there are no indigenous Antarcticans). I volunteered one Christmas at a soup kitchen. I naively believed that such simple acts of generosity helped people over temporary setbacks until they could get back on their feet.
