I'm so ambivalent about the remake of The Omen.

I liked the original movie, and I liked the concepts in the rest of the trilogy, if not always their execution. So I think it could be really cool to see it and compare and contrast. On the other hand I am 1. fucking sick of remakes and 2. ambivalent about spoiling my view of the classic. Also 3. I wanted to do it myself. *sulk* Nobody will do the sequel properly, and it will just end up being the lame bloodbath the first version was.

But who are we kidding, really, the remake has David Thewlis in it, so I will go. I'll go alone, because my family aren't big on horror (and by the time it opens I may be living somewhere else anyway) but I'll see it in some fashion.

Unrelatedly, House fans need to learn how to wank, because that hatememe was pathetic. For a bunch of fans of a cruel misanthrope, y'all have a hard time bringing the crazy.

These are the deep thoughts that haunt my days. Seriously, I need a job before I start contemplating my own thumbs. (Cool! THUMBS!)

Also my mum gave a monologue upon clothing this morning. She asked what I was going to wear to my interview and then without waiting for reply, started in on how SHE doesn't know what they do in the ARTS but in BUSINESS you should dress UP and she's willing to take me to some clothing stores and help me pick something out and OMG MAKE IT STOP YOU GUYS SERIOUSLY. She spent ten minutes having a conversation with herself about my interview clothes while I ate my toast and made a mental to-do list.

We made cookie bars. Sort of.

Sam: Turn the heat on the saucepan down. You're going to scorch the chocolate.
Bernard: This ain't my first barbecue.
Sam: This isn't barbecue. This is baking. The difference is that chocolate scorches.
Bernard: I know what I'm doing.
Sam: Okay, it's melted. Ready for the bisquick?
Bernard: It's still lumpy.
Sam: It's forming lumps because it's scorched. Take it off the fucking heat! *adds Bisquick*
Bernard: *stirs*
Mum: It looks like it's not blending properly.
Bernard: Yeah, it didn't melt all the way.

Oh my god, I'm going to shoot him.

And also the first person who says "Maybe it really didn't melt!" I think I know when I see melted chocolate, and half-melted chocolate doesn't SMOKE.
