eve_primeThis week’s Friday movie was Hero, a very beautiful Chinese movie starring Jet Li and done in that fancy wuxia style with people leaping into the air and floating there during duels. I had just read a whole chapter on the movie in the book about Eastern storytelling, so I knew the whole plot, but that was fine. Definitely worthwhile, and I expect I’d like to see it again.
J is getting ready for a big weekend of Magic – it’s the prerelease for the set based on the Final Fantasy games, so he’ll be playing all day tomorrow, Sunday afternoon, and Monday evening. It’s especially exciting because D’s playing in the Magic pro tour in two weeks so needs lots of preparation with the new set. Meanwhile, since we’re expecting lovely warm weather, I plan to sit outside and read for hours.
