Tuesday's Bleak Sanctuary of Mememeness

It took me forever to fall asleep last night. Woke up grumpy and tired, with an itchy throat and a black cloud hanging over my head. Work is... work. Feel the same about it as all of you - despondent, lazy, devious, truculent and demode.

Some new year's resolutions:

- Not watch any movies with the following actors: Angelina Jolie, Tom Hanks, Goody Goody Junior, Tom Hanks, Nicholas Cage, Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan.
- Not watch any movies where Tom Cruise plays a good guy or/and a heterosexual.
- Watch more obscure "foreign" movies.
- Be more like Miss Jane Marple and solve tons of mysteries.
- Swim loads.
- Eat less chips and crisps.
- Get a job that makes me feel passionate, excited and/or happy.
- Cut down my Livejournal friends' list without feeling guilty and/or mean.

Have you *SEEN* "Hackers"?

CLASSIC movie!

And the only movie I can think of that has Machines Of Loving Grace on the soundtrack. BONUS POINTS!

I saw Hackers years and years ago and I remember thinking it was ok... but it definetly wouldn't make my top 10! Maybe I should revisit it?

Nah, in fairness it's probably just one I hold a soft spot for because it appeals to my inner kid, but it *IS* a lot better than most people say it is...

The thing you need to remember is it's supposed to be exagerrated and cartoony, as opposed to a realistic portrayal of computer hacking (if it was the latter, it would be unendingly tedious!)...

I know what you mean... I have similar reasons for holding Groundhog Day as my ultimate favourite movie!
