New movies!
Feb. 3rd, 2007 04:43 pmHad a bunch of CDs to sell, so we headed over to Joplin this morning-- traded the CDs for several movies and Devin bought a couple of video games.
We looked for Supernatural, but one store didn't have it and the other store did, but for twenty bucks higher than amazon.com. So, online order it is.
I did give in and rent the second disk, though-- I'm no good at waiting. How much did I love the Bloody Mary episode? Thismuch. :-D
Now we're going to watch movies . . . we bought Full Metal Jacket, which I haven't seen in forever (Jayne is in it!) and which my brother has never seen, so it's time to further corrupt his mind. Heh. Also bought Spider. Don't remember much about that one except 1) thinking it was incredibly twisted but very good, and 2) it was one of the 'lock my bedroom door so my parents don't open it at the wrong time and say, "What are you watching, young lady?!" and make me stop the tape' movies.
I rented a lot of things at 15/16/17 that would've gotten that reaction. It started when I rented Schindler's List and didn't tell my parents I'd done so until after I already watched it.
When I wanted to see Murder in the First, I mentioned it to mom and dad and they rented it, then told me it was too intense for someone my age. Renting it at a friend's house ensued because, as I said above-- no good at waiting. ;-)
My parents, bless their doomed mission, both tried to be cautious with the whole, "Is this suitable material?" thing-- mom worried more about violence and language, while dad didn't worry so much about the violence as he did whether or not the movie was glorifying it. Meanwhile I just wanted to see anything and everything right then. Even if it was dark and violent. Okay, especially if it was dark and violent.
You know that "When other little girls wanted to be ballerinas, I kinda wanted to be a vampire" icon? I need that icon.
