Pulling teeth. It's like that. Really.

I spent much of the past couple of days writing. I'd do a review once in awhile for a break, and force myself to write on the book. It's hard, because I know a ton of work needs to be done in the first half of the book. Tons and tons. But I want to finish a draft, so I keep writing, adding in things I know will be supported on the second write, knowing all the while that if someone where to read theis draft, they'd be like, "Where did that come from? Eh?" It's a little frustrating, but I think if I went and started over now, it'd be worse.

Anyway.

Watched two movies tonight: Master and Commander, and Timeline.

M&C was excellent in, like, 90% of its aspects. I've watched so many ship movies, and this is the first one I've seen that really felt real. The ship felt small inside...which it is, seriously, I've been inside a few. Usually, in a movie, the inside of ship practically looks like you could play a game of football in it. Also, in the first fight scene they dropped the boats...something I've read of them doing, but never before saw. Really, a marvelous movie.

Timeline was...eh. The battle at night, at the castle? Yes! Purty! Nifty as all get out! All the emotional high dungeon and dramatic yelling? Lousy. Stupid. Kiddy. The guy who played Marrick (looked it up...Gerard Butler) tho... :D

Last night I finally got to see The Usual Suspects. That is a rather nifty movie, isn't it? It was really well put together.
