christopher nolan loves me!

i have really serious issues. i don't know why i have to be the way i am. when i read "life of pi", i couldn't sleep for, like, four nights. i just sat there and looked at the ceiling and thought about zoos and tigers and india. after the series finale of lost, i must have slept for a total of 8 hours that whole week. a combination of the twisting, thought-provoking ending and the sad empty "it's over" feeling kept me up late at night, alone with my fast and furious thoughts. but i can't think of a better experience than reading a really good book or watching a really good movie that makes you think for days after you finish.

today, i only have one question that i'm mulling over. actually it's one question that encompasses atleast a hundred more that i have....

WAS THE TOP WOBBLING?!?!

i saw inception on friday and it absolutely blew my mind. BLEW MY MIND! i can't stop thinking about it. i loved it. if i could go see it again right now, i would. i have never been in a theater where the emotions of everyone was so tangible. everyone sucked in their breathe at the same time, gasped at the same time, clutched the arm chair anxiously at the same time. ok, i can't prove that last one to you, but it was a whole different experience.

and then when we were walking out of the theater, i was as sad as i always get when i watch a really good movie or read a good book. i felt involved in that plot for the past two hours! how rude to just throw me back out on the street.

there is something about me that is not hard to figure out. i am the person that big blockbuster filmmakers love. i am the person that is easily manipulated. if they try to get me to cry, i'll cry. if they try to get me to laugh, i'll laugh.

armageddon? i was so nervous, i thought i was going to puke from start to finish.
titanic? jack and rose! classic couple! and the violinists? get me every time.
toy story 3? cried and cried and cried.

ok, so i'm that person! is there something so wrong with that? christopher nolan must love me because i am going back to see inception. in fact, i'm buying it december 7th. that's when it comes out; i already checked.

oh by the way, of course the top wobbled.
