Sarah Connor

[beccaelizabeth]

Am watching Terminator 2. Am 40 minutes in. So far it's all creepy mental hospitals and car/bike chases. Something just went boom.

Getting from this to The Sarah Connor Chronicles? Definitely of the more-from rather than more-of school. They did so much interesting about PTSD and raising children and the knock on effects of violence on the world.

Also, Derek and Cameron are way better to look at than Arnie ever was. The difference in Sarahs is pretty much neutral. I think I like series Sarah better because of the stories.

I am a little tired of mental health treatment being all horror show all the time though.

I think I'm bored of this film. I turn it off now.



Unrelated but vaguely bugging me since yesterday: Mr Magorium's Wonder Emporium (or however they spell it). The whole film, Mahoney is a woman who happens to wear trousers and jackets. We get to the bit where she 'grows up'? Dresses and makeup time. *facepalm*
Plus Bechdel test fail. At 'two named women' I think, unless whatsit's mum got a name when I wasn't paying attention.

Films: So very bored with them.
But I can't sit here staring at the wall and complain about boredom so I have to do something.

Started reading up on Maus for the essay due in a bit less than two weeks, but cannot get my attention to stick to the page, plus, didn't find anything useful in the first chapter.

I agree with you about Terminator 2. It doesn't start to get interesting until he takes off the sunglasses, and that's too long to sit watching explosions.
