Impromptu movie night @ Latebra
Went to Latebra early evening, watched Bowling for Columbine. I don't think I'd ever seen a Michael Moore movie before (nor read any of his books), and I really liked it--I'd like to see more, and perhaps even read some of his books. Amusing, informative, and biased in a direction I agree with. :) (The message seems to be that thought Americans have a lot of guns, gun ownership isn't the problem--Canada has more guns per capita than we do, and yet have almost zero gun violence. Fact is, the U.S. has over 30x the gun deaths annually of the first runner-up, and no simple explanation for it. It isn't violent games or movies, it isn't Marilyn Manson, it isn't lack of religion--those are conditions existing in every developed country, and yet.. neglibible gun violence there. Guess we're just violent--or scared, because the government and media tell us to be.)
Update: Yeah, yeah, biased, propaganda, faked stuff, etc. I still like what I saw, and would like evidence from the opposition.
Then we had dinner at about 9pm, of rissoles and sausage. Mmm, meat.
We were then called to the TV, where they were showing Tomb Raider on SBS--I think we saw about half of it, as it was over awfully quickly.
Next, dessert, which included some caramel & vanilla ice cream that I'd brought, made into iced coffee.
After that, Jillian and I started watching Pirates (which has an upcoming sequel! O_O!) on Kit's computer, which was very choppy and bad, so it was stopped about 6 minutes in. Instead, we watched The Guru, which I was hesitant about at first--didn't sound very good from the description at IMDb, but I gave it a try, and quite liked it. Funny, romantic, and with a cheesy, happy ending that pleased me greatly.
Finally, Jillian and I talked flight for a while, and I headed home. :)

Re: i haven't seen it but...
we'll just agree to disagree.
and so far as googling... yes, you're right. but the problem people had was with the fact that he won for documentary, the good sites refer a lot to his setup shots mroe than arguing the points. i feel that that's a fair argument.
