recently finished:
- pattern recognition (william gibson): fabulous. 'classic' gibson depth and texture blended with a not too distant future that has tendrils into the near and distant past. marketing phobia and global obsession over art that hovers on the verge of product. cutting edge for it's believability as much as for it's gaze into the probably future.
recently started:
- rachel and leah (orson scott card)
recently watched:
- the fantastic 4: solid renter - may rent a second time. while i think it was a well done movie, i have to admit that i never really read much of the fantastic 4 as a kid - so the adaptation may have left something to be desired to die-hards. the effects were good. strike that - i'm verging on great to great plus. pretty sure i counted around 9 special effects companies in the credits.
