Re: Paranormal Activity

Thingie: *goes bump-tap-skritch-thunk-screech-"O hay thar" in the night*

Guy: I am a big manly man and, armed with my camera, I will handle this wtfery on my own with my cunning plan! What plan? Who knows!

Girl: I AM FREAKING OUT AND WILL CONTINUE TO FREAK OUT AND WILL STAY RIGHT HERE AND FREAK OUT LOUDLY.

Me: You guys are so not good at this*.

*Perchance I've run into a few too many things that go bump-tap-skritch-thunk-snore(yes, it snored)-"O hay thar" in the night . . . But I've got the feeling this movie will be to people who've actually dealt with ghosties/poltergeists what "Let's split up and hide from the axe murderer in different rooms of this creepy old house!" is to most normal people.

	So I take it it wasn't that scary? I'm curious about it but I think most of the hype had to with it being October... (Reply to this) (Thread)

If you liked Blair Witch Project, you might like this. It had its BOO!--gotcha moments, and did bring t3h cr33py associated with waking up from sleeping to find something fucked up going on, and you will jump at the end. It's actually one of the closest-to-IRL movie adaptations I've seen. That being said, stupid characters are stupid. "I can google this particular type of haunting but not how to get rid of the thing!" "Okay, I'm gonna call a psychic but not head down to the local occult shop or church!"

	Micah very much annoyed me the entire time. XD But I sympathized with the girl, though now that I think about it, she should've just been "Fuck you and your camera, I'm calling the damn demonologist." (Reply to this) (Thread)

	And I'm all "You can't tell me there's not a local pagan store/group, or anything along those lines, that can help. You can't tell me you fail at google-fu this hard. You can't tell me you haven't seen any movies like this. New priest, old priest, srsly?" (Reply to this) (Parent)

Hm, but I liked Blair Witch after I fast forwarded through the beginning.
Though I still say it didn't hold a candle to The Others.

Hm...off topic here, do you know Die Artze Junge? They're a German band with some entertaining music videos.
I'm fond of this one:

	Can't say I've heard of them either . . . Will have to look into them when I'm not on my way to work. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Argh, the sleepless poor spelling strikes again. Die Arzte is the band. Junge is one of the songs I linked to the video of (the second, I think). (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Wait, are you replying to me while driving? Because while I can see how I'd be top priority, getting yourself killed would end our conversations. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nah, I was heading out the door. Disgruntledly, might I add. Morning is still evil. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Indeed it is, little buddy, indeed it is. Hm... channneling the Tick, there I think. So, do glance at the videos and get back to me. The first one has to be seen all the way through to get to the good bits. (Reply to this) (Parent)
