Armchair Criticism

Y'know, I don't go to the movies. I don't watch movies in general. I certainly haven't seen these two. But just judging by the reviews, DC might have wanted to go with Kyle Rainer. And Pixar might have just wanted to stay home this year.

(Still, nowhere to go from here but up, right guys?)

I can do one better I think -- I don't even know what movies you're referring to. Not having television means I don't see trailers. Unless I hear indirect "buzz" about something that might interest me films go by and I never notice or miss them. Doubtless I'm missing some proportion which I would really enjoy, but I don't have the interest or energy to keep up with such things.

I'm amused by how many people are shocked when they find out (in casual conversation) that I don't have television -- by choice! So many people can't picture living without it. Not that there's anything wrong with enjoying television, but I really didn't (or rather, wasn't willing to pay for the 1001 things besides the bits I would enjoy) and I frankly don't miss it.
