being john cusack...

i watched being john malkovich last night - i have mixed feelings about charlie kaufman... i hated adaptation (which, according to everyone, was supposed to mean that i hate being john malkovich), loved eternal sunshine of the spotless mind... and surprisingly liked being john malkovich... yes, it was weird - but i liked it... i don't know if i'll run out and buy it - or if it is one of my top movies seen in '05 - but it was much better than i expected...

interesting...

what if there were a portal into john cusack's brain... that would be weird... or into anyone's brain... strange...

according to imdb.com, In the first draft of the script, Lester and his friends weren't using Malkovich's portal as a means for extending their lives, but in a plot to take over the world in the name of Satan. Satan was the mysterious 'Flemmer' that the Merton-Flemmer building was half named after.

that's even weirder... i'm kind of thankful they went with the whole extending life storyline... i don't know that i would have felt comfortable with them using john malkovich's body as a means to taking over the world in the name of satan - even though i think he is creepy and have never much liked john malkovich...

just random thoughts for a random day... i'm off to class now... we may be watching luther (not loser) in class today - which would make me really happy!
