In the chiiiiiiill of the night

[prog]

Saw Spider-Man finally, a matinee with cthulhia. I feel that I should go to Bangor sometime soon to watch it with my brother Peter, since the concept of Spider-Man is one of our very few shared reference points. I knew I'd like the movie enough to survive seeing it twice, due to everything I've heard about it, and lo, I was right.

Then again, I vowed many years ago that I wouldn't see movies with Peter anymore because he behaves terribly at them, or so I thought at the time. He just gets really into the violence, cheering every time anyone dies for any reason, and saying, "Yeah... dead!" I'm not sure I want to be there with him enjoying it for all the wrong reasons. mumble Well, we'll see.

To this day, though, Peter will, every time I visit him, find some opportunity to go "da-na-na-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NAAA!" at me, imitating the opening trumpet blare of the 1960s Spider-Man cartoon's theme music. We saw every episode of that show many times, when I was very small. When Peter wants to reinforce our fraternal link, he need only make that sound to me. (Sometimes he will back it up by pretending to shoot webs and making the appropriate thwippy noises.) That's why I think seeing the movie with him might be nice.
