Tonight, Mom and I went to see Cowboys and Aliens. About which, two non-spoilery things:

1) Every time I see something with Clancy Brown in it, I have the following conversation with my mom:
Me: Hey, Clancy Brown!
Mom: Who's that?
Me: ::tries to think of anything she's seen with Clancy Brown in it:: ...he was in Justice League.
Mom: ...oh.

2) I remain incapable of watching any sort of sci-fi/fantasy western without spending a good third of the time thinking about the Dark Tower. (No Eddie or Susannah in this movie, but there is an arguable Jake and, surprisingly, an Oy.) Daniel Craig has been put on my list of "actors I would not mind seeing play Roland Deschain."

I should read the Dark Tower again.



Also, it was a pretty fun movie.

Dammit, where is my copy of The Gunslinger? It is not with the rest of the series, it is not on any of my bookshelves. Did I lend it to someone?

I mean, it's not like I can't get it from the library if I've lost it, but I think the library only has the new revised version any more and I am...leery of that. It would be interesting to read, but it's not the book as I know it.

Grar.
