Fucking storm. No rain, just thunder and lightning. Except that the lightning's the worst part, what with our electrical system having all the strength of a consumptive squirrel.

But I did get to see Alien: Resurrection last night. For no real reason at all, I just realized Hey, I'm in the mood for something mindless with people in it and it was on top of the video box and it had three of my current obsessions in: Perlman, Wincott, and Dourif. And I realized something about Ron Perlman when he doesn't have ten pounds of latex on his head.

He looks like an ape.

No, seriously! I know apes. I studied them for years as an anthro student. He looks like a shaved gorilla. Maybe a chimp. But he does look like a shaved ape. He is what Gabriel was talking about when he started ranting about talking monkeys. If the archangels ever start fighting over humans and souls again, poor Ron Perlman is going to be one of the first to go. Or maybe the last, if he has the sense to go hide in the monkey cage.

Still funny, though, for all his apeishness. And "I am not the man with whom to fuck" is one of the best lines in badassery.

And I actually made myself sit through to the ending. Usually I stop watching at the part where Dourif and Wincott die, but I was really bored. I did not know he, one of the living embodiments of machismo, kissed a guy at the end of that movie. How... odd. I watched it three times to make sure I wasn't hallucinating. And because it was funny.

Okay. Time to go back upstairs and get some writing done before I see Hellboy for the second time. No, this was not my idea, but it's a damn good idea nonetheless. Besides, movies with the bf and Pirate!John are always funny. Hee.

Red means Stop.
