A Quick One While He's Away

Quick post since I'm at work. Poor, lo-speed connection at the house I'm watching, so I wasn't able to post last night. Watched Battle Royale, finally, and it's great. I expected the shocks, but thankfully there was a decent story there and the characters were pretty well-defined just by brief flashbacks and snatches of dialogue between fights. Hard to swallow that the Kitano character would go from victim to ringmaster within one school term, though. I was all set to watch the bonus disc last night, but it's all in Japanese, and the only subtitles available were KOREAN! WTF? Weird because the menus and lots of the superimposed graphics are English. My friend has a PS2 as well, so I played The Incredibles last night, and it's great. Very fun, and not impossible to advance. As an infrequent videogamer, I don't really want something THAT challenging. Couldn't beat Mrs. Incredible's boss yet, but it was only my first time. The only other game they had was Ninja Turtles, which is okay but not as well animated, not surprisingly given that Incredibles is modeled on a state-of-the-art movie and Turtles is on the crappy cartoon.

Wrote four pages of Irregular Joe #3, though I should note this writing went very quickly due to no dialogue at all being used for this scene. Pretty heavy stuff involving one of the uglier moments of WWII. Hard to say how much one should really show of this, but I decided not to flinch and just went for it.
