delays and cancellations

Published by duane July 14th, 2008 in all about me, happenings, venting, well? and wtf?!.

First of all, our trip was amazing. We saw so much, and did even more.

However, it was almost ruined by the 11 hours of delays and cancellations we endured today as a result of a thunderstorm in ATL. We got to the airport around 1, and didn’t take off until after 11. Then, upon arrival in Atlanta, we had to wait almost an hour in a line for a cab, because the city’s “amazingly” “efficient” and “effective” transit system closed down at least an hour before we touched down.

Needless to say, I have had a bad day, but I am glad to be home (albeit, at 3:05 am). Details on the trip to follow. I promise.

Ugh. Well I’m glad you made it back! On our way back from Halifax earlier this year we ended up at the Halifax airport for like 9 hours, then didn’t know if we were going to make our Chicago connection. Thought we were gonna have to rent a car and drive home from midnight to 3am. Luckily our connection was there, only had to wait 2 hours for it.

Wait. What? You live in Atlanta? Did I miss something? Or did you just fly through Atlanta? I may be going to Atlanta. Hence my musings.

Good movie. Jim Sturgess is stunning. I really liked the story, and the plot "twist" elements.

Wow, the visuals are amazing in this film. Guillermo Del Toro is a fantastic artist, and this movie is great. As good as the first? Perhaps, but I think it should have been a little longer, and they should have had more "story"; the focus on the Golden Army took away from the characters that I wanted to see.

Eh, it was a fun, action, eye candy fest... but as far as "good movie", it was not. The writing was even cheesier than the previous two, and replacing Rachel Weisz was weird and awkward. Also... the fact that they had a son since the last one, and he was in his twenties, even though they didn't age?? Weirdness all around!

doomsday 4/5

I loved the concept; city quarantined due to deadly disease... not too far from the truth really. Lots of action, but a few moments where you wonder, "um, what?". Other than that, just a fun apocalyptic thriller.

It was fun, with funny moments, and Seth Rogen was as usual, HOT, but it was just alright. I might need to watch it again, but it was ok.
