District 9
Aug. 30th, 2009 11:18 pmSaw District 9 tonight. It was...much better than I expected, but it was also much, much harder to watch than I expected.
( District 9 spoilers )
I did read two excellent books last week, both by Charles de LInt and both vastly different experiences. I liked Yarrow more than Angel of Darkness, and eventually I'll write about why.
I've decided I'm going to play in a WarMachine tournament coming up at a Chicago games store, so in preparation for that I have a buttload of painting to do and I also need to practice playing timed games. I know that I take too long to think about my turns, so I really need to work on konwing solidly what my army does, what I have to do to get them to do their thing the best they can, and how it all will play out in different games. I've got three weeks, so we'll see if I can get ready in time. If not, I'll at least have a fully painted 500 points and actual tournament experience, even if it's a losing experience.
