blustockingSo yeah, Dawn of the Dead (the re-make, that is)....
10 points for using a Richard Cheese song!
20 points for pacing.
30 for cool-ass zombies.
15 for looking like 28 Days Later, but being a better movie altogether.
5 for nifty opening titles.
10 for not wussing out with a happy ending.
5 for creative use of end-credits and time.
-5 for the baby.

I'll admit, I fell asleep when watching the original(not until toward the end, but still). I do love what George Romero has done, but Dawn just fell short for me. I think I actually like this one better.
I met Ian after work yesterday and we went to meet up with his friends, Ryan and Josh. Then we all went to see Dawn of the Dead. After the movie, we came back, Josh left, so Ryan, Ian, and I went out for a drink at the Jazzhaus. It's nice that Ian's friends are all pretty damn cool...or that he even has friends at all (*coughRyancough*). After that, we went for some nice middle eastern food.
Then we left, went back to K.C., picked up some mustard and/or ketchupand wine, went home, put on some Portishead, did it like monkeys, and cuddled until sleepytime.
A good evening.
