In Pajamas

Home sick today. Not homesick, like I miss HK homesick. But at home, sick. As in, the food here is so dirty everything that goes in wants to come back out.

And what do I decide to do with my day at home, sick? Read Harry Knowles's review of the Social Network, of course. And yeeeeah, he basically wrote the review I would've written http://www.aintitcool.com/node/46685

His short-ish review basically waxes poetic about the opening scene ahhhh it's the scene I can't stop obsessing over either. I think I had a visceral reaction when he said she doesn't need to study cos she goes to BU. Then when she said you're always gonna think people don't like you because you're a nerd, but it's really because you're an asshole... I loved that line. Describes so many people, although replacing the word "nerd" with others. And Harry mentions the opening scene of JJ Abram's Star Trek, which I freaking love.

P.S. Front page byline in the Phnom Penh Post today! YES.

P.S. sorry writing too much as i'm kinda obssessed w/ this movie as well but... a) "Erica Albright" is so beautiful to me and b) I love her line abt how "the Internet's not written in pencil it's written in ink".
