Last night I hung at the ranch, where
ghettopeach and I went to go see the Simpsons Movie, since I'd heard it was much lawl. And it was! We had many hearty laughs thoughout the whole thing. Although I guess the whole thing felt like one very long, extended episode? (Which, heh, kind of makes Homer's joke at the start of the movie all the more true.) Because of that, while the gags were set up great, it felt like there was no real character development, particularly on Homer's part. In a series, this works fine, because what makes the characters consistently funny in a sitcom is that they don't learn from their mistakes. But in a movie? You're expecting a story arc with definite beginning and ending, and when the character bounces into development only to bounce back again, it's not nearly as gratifying. :/
Still, I got many good laughs out of it. Worth getting on DVD, if you don't see it in the theater!
Also,
ghettopeach and I were sharing school woes with each other (of different kinds, natch!) and she brought up a point that I think really helps explain my artistic issues lately:
( Ramble damble )
And speaking of school, I am trying to install Maya on my mac so that I can actually do homework at home (le gasp!) but I'm already running into roadblocks for that, UGH. Need to ask for more help...at least ZBrush works fine. I need to learn that program ASAP. :P
Drawing: ADJASKDJA. Did more concept art work today; worked on my poly model for class, and now I either need to work on animation homework or other stuff.
Writing: Not too much.
