Daybreakers

[annwfyn]

So, how did the sunlight come in a straight line through the holes? Sunlight doesn't work like that

I've been banned from ranting about this anymore. Suffice it to say that Daybreakers was maybe not the deep, intelligent, moving vampire film one might have hoped for. And that I had issues in how sunlight worked.

In other news, we had a rather exciting experience getting out of the cinema. I got into the car, I accelerated, I got about a foot forward and then I lost all traction. The wheels spun, I put my foot down and the car didn't move. At all.

Some panicking later, pierot and anysbryd got out and pushed. Nothing happened. I managed to reverse a bit, so I had my wheels on snow instead of ice, and then accelerated, hard, again, whilst they pushed. We lurched forward, I spun out of control, Matt and jez managed to shove me around the corner. I slid forward until I hit concrete again.

ksirafai suggested we avoid driving to the cinema for the foreseeable future.

Daybreakers, in the meantime, made remarkably little sense. Willem Dafoe chewed up the scenery, Ethan Hawke looked a little too serious all the time, and Sam Neill was villainous in a manner normally only seen in a John Travolta scene. If he'd seen a puppy, he'd have kicked it.

Argh! It's snowing again outside now. I want it to stop! I have to drive into central London tomorrow!
