Finally got to an SCA practice tonight. It's been just over two weeks. I'm way off pace for my training, at this point I guess I'll have to buckle down next month and see how Crown Tournament goes. We will see.
I used to have three hobbies: SCA, video production (unpaid), and D&D. Over the last 6 months, I'm down to the SCA. On the plus side, paying video production has replaced hobby video production. I think my wife would like it if we could get back to some D&D, but my drive in that area is low and there aren't many opportunities to pursue it around here. And I guess I can always get back to my own production projects when the paying video work slows down. If it doesn't slow down, then I suppose I'm doing alright with just the paying work.
Movies I watched last week:
Fantastic 4: Rise of the Sliver Surfer. Tough to review, as I slept through the middle. Not a reflection on the movie, I was REALLY tired. From what I saw it looked better than the first Fantastic 4, which I did enjoy. Overall I think it's most likely a 2 or 3 out of 5, depending on what happened while I was asleep.
Horton Hears a Who. My son and I saw this on in the theater. He was very excited about the previews for upcoming movies (Kung-Fu Panda, Wall-e, Ice Age 3, and Speed Racer). Horton was a very good movie. It did an excellent job of staying true to the Dr. Seuss style and the type of message that he tried to convey with his stories. In some ways it was an improvement of the story, as the characters had more personality and depth. With the playfulness of the story and some excellent voice actors I would definitely recommend this certainly adaptation as a movie worth seeing. My son stayed awake for the whole movie, which was not a lock as he was a little sick and nap usually starts about half way though the movie's run time; and he's talked about the movie several times in the days since. So my best guess is that he enjoyed it as well.
So, I'm thinking 3 out of 5 for adults and 4 out of 5 for children.
