A puppy?
I might have slept through that part. I was in and out for a stretch there, cause you know, nothing was happening.
I liked the gunkata. Interesting theoretical exercise, and very pretty.
Oh yeah. It was wicked cool. I mean, I couldn't think of any reason why it should be in this particular movie as opposed to some other action flick, but it was still wicked cool. At least in
The Matrix,
they had fighting styles downloaded into your brains, which was more plausible as far as Movie Plausibility goes.

Because it's rigidly mechanical? If you're going to extrapolate the divestment of human expression, add a tool to the mix, and a highly engineered one to boot. And then make damned sure it's the purest of kata -- programmed responses to stimuli, no improvisation.
The puppy
was found with a bunch of dogs being extreminated because they caused feelings of love and caring. Our hero rescues one, puts it in his trunk and then tries to set it free in the perimeter. It lurves him and won't leave. Hero sighs exasperatedly and then leaves. We don't see the fuzzball again until the explosions happen at the end. The daughter looks up, smiles creepily and we see the dog licking her hand...thus affirming the just-having-been-rightedness of the world.
Damn. You're good.
It's quite possible I overthink. But there was fighting! And teh pretty!

I totally have a guycrush on Christian Bale. I mean, have you seen
American Psycho
? He's all naked and shit.
He's more naked in Metroland, although at the time he hadn't put in enough gym work to make it as worthwhile.
I know. But they were a good five minutes.
I'm going to go see that stupid Nicholas Cage movie where he's a treasure hunter because Sean Bean's the bad guy in it.
