To every idea a shelf...

By the way, Patrick evicted--YAY!!! I really don't mind who wins now, I like them all.

Yep, he was the right person to go. I quite liked him - I enjoyed his sense of humour - but I think he contributed the least to the house dynamic. The three that are left are so great.

I felt bad for him when he was talking about Jo. Gretel and the entire audience know that she's still with her boyfriend, and he's sitting there talking about maybe being in love with her... at least he was honest, I suppose.

I know, I couldn't believe that Patrick OF ALL PEOPLE let his guard down like that!

I felt like I was watching one of my own dreams on screen or something

The dream imagery in Donnie Darko was definitely my favourite aspect of the movie, and I liked the sense that Donnie had a whole other world unfolding inside his head because it seemed intimately familar in a nice creepy way. But I found the ending too predictable, it felt like a cop-out in a way I don't think I can properly articulate--it was very much a nonsensical gut-reaction thing.

you know how sometimes a movie or something feels likes its explaining something about you to yourself?

Yeah, that's a great way of describing how I feel about Restless, oddly enough. Definite moment of instant recognition, there. In a way, my love for that episode is almost separate from my BtVS fanishness (that so isn't a word, but it needs to be, damnit!), even if my knowledge of the characters and such informs my reaction to it. I don't think I've ever felt that way about a film, though--I'm too cynical about the medium, or something. Maybe cinema is just too finite for me--a bad ending usually ruins the film for me, but a bad ending to a novel seems to have a less dramatic effect on my reaction, probably because I can't read a book in two or so hours.
