I seem to be lurking a lot these days, though I do try to keep up on reading my flist, at least :)

I've written 5000+ words on an Adam/Blake fic. It kinda sucks, but it feels good to be writing again!

Nothing too exciting going on here. Same, same. More TV DVRing than I know what to do with....11 hours recorded on Tuesday ack!

I saw The Martian last week. Very good! Definitely going to buy it when it comes out. Next, I want to see The Walk. Looks amazing :)

Saw The Martian as well yesterday, it's awesome! Although I could't watch at the beginning when Watney was doing self-surgery. *hides* They changed some stuff from the book, but I didn't mind it - for the movie it worked mostly better like that.

I've heard from a friend who's already seen The Walk that it really is amazing! It's also a lot funnier than the trailers make it out to be, and the 3D is wow. He's afraid of heights, but his brain was clever enough to realise that this wasn't real (it wasn't clever enough to know that the stuff flying towards him wasn't real either, though *g*). But! One of his colleagues is also afraid of heights and he got sweaty palms at the end - it was too immersive for him.

God, I so want to see this!

I heard that there were a few panic attacks at one of the IMAX theaters. Just makes me want to see it more :D

Maybe will give it a try next weekend :)

I am glad to see your post. :) I too have gone the way of the lurk.

I am seeing The Martian on Friday. I won't be seeing it on IMAX unfortunately because the person I am going with gets sick in those. But I am still really excited to see it. Have you seen Interstellar? If so, did you think The Martian or Interstellar was better? I love how Jessica Chastain and...another male (no spoilers in case you haven't seen it) are in both. I don't know why but it amuses me.

The Walk looks a little dull to me. I also don't care for the male lead so I think I'll pass. Usually I either need a fast plot or a main character(s) I really enjoy watching to watch that kind of a film. I hope you enjoy it! I think just the fun of seeing something like that in 3D will be cool.

Cool, hope you enjoy it :)

Yep, saw Interstellar. Totally different films, so hard to compare. I LOVED the humor in The Martian, it was a bit surprising how much there was. And Interstellar, I saw mainly for Matthew McConaughey, but I really liked it as well, though the ending lacked a good impact..no pun intended lol.

Who was the person in both? Been awhile since I've seen it.

Also a huge fan of Joseph Gordon-Levitt, which is why I want to see The Walk, though I might have caught it on video if I didn't know the lead. (if you haven't seen 50/50, it might make you a fan ;) )

Feels like all of my flist is lurking at times. I try to give a poke to the ones who have vanished for a few years, but rarely get any responses back :( Still love this place.

Thanks!

Matt Damon was in both. :)

Haha, I'll add it to my list of things I need to check out.

Yeah, I am sad about the state of LJ these days. They picked a bad time to start doing things that pissed off the masses which made everyone go to FB, Twitter, and Instagram. :/ I'll never leave though. Like you, I still love it here.

Haha, I don't remember him in it!

Not only a bad time, but a lengthy time. It did sound like things are going to be better, but I haven't noticed many updates since then. Oh well. At least the site still works *knock on wood*

He was that guy who pressed his button which was supposed to mean his planet could be the next earth. But in reality he was just lonely. He ended up stealing their ship and then...boom! lol
