So I saw Forbes came up with an updated Fictional 15 list. Though how in the world would the list change? I think a couple of characters are from stories that are still ongoing like Bruce Wayne and Tony Stark, but others are from static tales. I guess those whose stories are still being told can move up or down, shifting the list. And I'm not sure how Lucius Malfoy would make such a list. He's rich, but he's not that rich! They did come up with a top 25 largest fictional companies. I had never read The Crying of Lot 49, so I always think of Yoyodyne as being from Star Trek, even though its also been mentioned on Buckaroo Banzai and Angel. Heh, one of Wolfram and Hart's other "clients", Weyland-Yutani is also on the list. I know they were trying to be all referential, but Oceanic and Nakatomi seem to be out of their league here. Gringotts though, does make sense.
Anyways, saw "I Am Legend" with the usual suspects today. It was okay, it wasn't bad, the plot's pretty straightforward, and I don't think there's anything that differentiates it from other films similar to it. A rude family was sitting in front of the roomie, and I just can't understand how people can be so oblivious to common courtesy in the movie theaters. I mean, who are these people? Are there just people out there who see no problem with talking aloud during the movie, or using their phone and all that?! It just doesn't make sense to me. And its like I know the mother seemed to be checking her voicemail or something through most of the movie and even left for a while, as did her kids for blocks of several minutes. Why are you even coming to the movie theater with your rude asses if you're not even going to be watching the frickin' movie? Particularly with ticket prices nowadays!
Last night, when setting the DVR to record Numbers, the synopsis for Moonlight sounded interesting. This ep was better than the pilot at least. Owel, with the lack of new eps of shows, I might check out the rest of them if they're on CBS' website. I did get the next two Invincible hardcovers, so I'm reading those now. Trying to pace myself, because I can prolly finish it up in a few hours, but then I'd have nothing left to read.
