Trust me on this. *thumbs up*

Ladies and gentlemen of the internet, I bring you another very important PSA:

WATCH SOURCE CODE.

DON'T look up anything about it, really, don't, I'm completely serious, don't watch the trailers, the trailers make the movie look stupid and they are full of spoilers, it's better if you have no idea at all what the movie is about going in, just go see it, it's totally worth it.

All you need to know is this:

1) Directed by Duncan Jones.

2) Chicago.

3) AWESOME.

...Oh man, Duncan Jones is not a one-hit wonder, this proves it, he's two for two and he is going to be a man whose career I am going to enjoy watching for decades to come. DIRECT ME ANOTHER ONE, MR. JONES. MAKE DAVID BOWIE PROUD.

...Write-up of concert shenanigans to follow when I have had some sleep, oh god.

YOU SHOULD SEE IT WHILE YOU ARE IN CHICAGO. BECAUSE. THAT WOULD BE FUNNY. It was so weird and meta because I think when we saw the movie you'd already arrived, so I kept thinking of you, and it was filmed a year ago, like, Chicago's all full of happy springtime flowering trees, and it was sunny and gorgeous and the buildings were all shiny and I was like, "LAWL, SOMEHOW I DOUBT THE WEATHER'S THAT NICE OVER THERE RIGHT NOW~!" Although maybe it was, in which case, EVEN BETTER.

Also, what's funny is that I'm not familiar enough with Chicago to identify it on its own merit, but I saw the river with all the bridges over it and I was like, "HEY THAT LOOKS AN AWFUL LOT LIKE GOTHAM CITY, HURR~ :DD"

Maybe I'll download it... idk. Diana's gonna be at work during the days, so if I get bored, yeah. The weather right now is all over the place. Last night was HOT. Seriously, it was gross. Like, 70 or something. There was a thunderstorm right as we got home from the show. Today it's all cold and grey again. /shrug

Lol omg dude. I do that too, and I used to live here

Yeah, I figure you're going to be pretty busy. If you don't get around to it, I WILL BE HAPPY TO WATCH IT WITH YOU WHEN YOU GET BACK. :DD

YAAAAAY! Yeah, either way.

Okay, one four-shot Americano down. I'mma go meet up with Diana now. THERE WILL BE DRUNKTEXTING! :D

Maybe I should go watch this and pretend that the weather is like that already. :/ The only flowers we have now are the ones the city planted that were already blooming beforehand, and they're just sitting in planters along the street doing a very good job of looking confused and kind of put-upon.

Also, I'm wondering how I missed them filming this in Millennium Park. I'm there almost constantly, and to think an entire movie snuck past me... (I'll bet it blended in with the Transformers stuff going on... very tricky.)

Yeah, I knew better than to think it was that pretty yet, what with what you were telling me and [livejournal.com profile] regonym's complaints about Iowa.

Most of the filming was done in Montreal... the Millenium Park bit was pretty brief, so I'm thinking it wouldn't have been too hard to miss. But I definitely lol'd and thought of you.

SEEEEEEEE IIIIIIIITTTTT~!
