Not without my hat!
There were a total of six people in the theater! Do people have no *taste*? (Don't answer that.)
Yeah, I've just come back from the movie. You know, the one where they're fighting on that boat over the gold of Cortez--
("Not you. We named the dog Indiana. . . ")
--Except what it's really about is how our hero, in order to save the world from evil, has to reach the mysterious magical artifact that grants eternal life to those who drink of its elixir. And even though there's been a traitor all along, he makes his way through all the traps in the hidden passage, including the last one, where with the help of the girl sidekick (and a little bit of logic) he chooses the right one to drink from. And in the end he succeeds, but only because he desires neither the thing itself nor the eternal life it represents--
--Right, off to see if there's still time to catch HP and the Sorcerer's Stone downstairs.
EDIT: Made it! Ghod, that's a long movie. Apparently Dorchester Hall has a check-outable DVD projector. Who knew? Also, other than a doughnut for breakfast, all I've eaten today is about a bag and a half of every-flavor-beans. Some of which dated back to the time when that movie was in the *theaters*. (I decided they needed to be eaten, and nobody else was brave enough.)
In a possibly connected thought, the PotC gold was cursed by the Aztecs, right? To avenge themselves on Cortez? Does that mean that Barbossa was suffering from the curse of Montezuma's Revenge? Must have been all those dodgy apples.
Have to decide whether I want sleep or seeing RotLA at midnight. Hmm.
