Gravity Droppings from the Sky: Category "C"

Category "C"

Over the weekend I went to the theatre and watched Doom. I don't really want to comment on the actual movie, but more on the target audience.

Personally I have never played Doom. But when I saw the crowd that trickled in, I couldn't help but laugh because the stereotype that surrounds video game geeks is just about true. There were guys that didn't have girlfriends and went with a group of buddies. It was a strange sort of cult like those that belong to LOTR fans, or Star Wars fans. I felt somewhat unclean. I also spied on a number of couples that the guys could only get their girlfriends to attend because The Rock was in it.

Since I went with my husband I probably appear to fit into the second catagory. But to be honest, The Rock always resembled Rob Schneider. His receding hairline also seems to be receding strangely. Not only is it creeping backwards in the front, but the back of his head seems to be climbling upwards. His head is like that of a cone. The hairline accentuates this "cone-ing" look. Now it could either be just his hair, or he was a big baby, and his mother was a real trooper in squeezing out this massive watermelon.

Since I claim I don't belong to category A or B, I will create category "C" This category actually likes action movies. Also gore. Zombies are fantastic. Some science talk is fun. Boobs are also fun. If you are a male falling into category "C" you probably scream whenever you see two men kiss. But category "C" women like it and laugh insanely at the men's disgust.

Has there ever been a decent film that's been spurned from a game?

I loved Resident Evil. I love zombie movies.

I think that I always made a subconscious connection between The Rock and Rob Schnedier, but I've never realized it. You're really on to something here. We need genetic testing on those two.
I'm glad you're a category "C" woman, they're the most fun to talk to. I think I'm a category "C" man, but I'm not disgusted by men kissing, probably because I kiss men.

Hahaha, If you like to kiss men, I think we need a sub category called "C-a"

The Second Resident Evil was distracting BECAUSE of the Toronto locations. And it wasn't that good which was a shame, I had such high hopes.
