ladyspriteSo, after getting home from work tonight, my sweetie and I decided not to head to Arisia until tomorrow. We wouldn't have a lot of time to spend there tonight, and the full-weekend pass is kind of expensive. We decided to rent a movie instead - a decent way to waste a little time and enjoy ouurselves in a low-cost, student budget kind of manner.
Of course, there's precious little in the video stores that's worth watching right now. After turning up our noses at fourteen Adam Sandler movies and a handful of stupid teenage sex comedies, we were left with 'Cats & Dogs' as the only even vaguely appealing option. I was dubious, but I figured it was worth the risk... if nothing else, there would be cute animals.
It's hilarious. Oh my goodness, it's silly, and I should probably be ashamed of myself for enjoying it so much, but I can't help it. Completely aside from the adorable Exotic Shorthair and the cute puppy, it's a genuinely funny movie. Predictable, slapstick, but for some reason it works. And the Evil Genius cat is marvelous.
Off to bed now, probably to dream about little evil kitty armies bent on world domination. Just the thing to put me in the mood for the con tomorrow....
