So, I called my parents Friday night about the Star Wars concert and they had forgotten it was on Saturday. So my mom had me print out the tickets on my computer, since I was sitting right in front of it as usual. I joked that she better make sure I have the tickets in my hand when they came to pick me up on Saturday!
When I went to sleep that night, I had this horrible dream that we got all the way to the concert and I forgot the tickets! And for some reason, in my dream, my parents had got a new car, some kind of pink SUV, and apparently it was the hottest car to have so I couldn't find the car (in my dream). Very stressful night!
Then, last night, I finally watched The Godfather. AD had raved about the movie but I had never really had any interest in it. I don't like gangsters. But, if I'm gonna call myself a movie buff (and get all those jokes that are made about the film), I figured I should probably see them in their correct context. Plus, I got AD the blu-ray set for his birthday so HI-DEF!
Guess what kind of dream I had last night? Apparently, I had offended Michael Corleone somehow...all I remember about the dream is being TERRIFIED and apologizing over and over, saying "I'm sorry, Godfather". I think I had pullled all the covers up over me, which made me all sweaty, so in my dream I was surrounded by the gangster guys, ready to beat me up. Yeesh!
AD says Godfather II is even better than the first one, so I want to see it but at the same time, I'm scared I'll have another nightmare!!!!
Maybe I should just watch my Hot Fuzz blu-ray instead and play it safe...at least then Simon Pegg can save me at the end of the dream (by firing his gun in the air and going "AAAAAAAH!!!")
SIDENOTE: If anyone knows of any really good, film criticism essays on why The Godfather is such an important film, I'd love to read them! I mean, I thought it was well done, but I feel like the time I watched Citizen Kane - I need the teacher over my shoulder pointing out to me WHY this is a big deal because the film is such a part of pop culture now that I've seen it all before elsewhere.
