Hm. I'm trying to remember what brought this up, but I have a feeling that ravenworks might enjoy this - Planetarium is something that I've mentioned on my LJ quite a long time ago, but it's still there, and probably still just as cool - a puzzle-game that comes in 12 weekly installments, of which it's topped-off with an only-one-week-access to the "xiii Forum" where you can discuss the game with other people who are in the Forum (and read previous entries, likely mine's in there somewhere). I remember that the puzzles are difficult but there's definitely a great satisfaction in working out the puzzles as you go.

I also discovered that the other Beholder projects (including a never-released game I was so intruiged to try - Six Beasties) includes a new project that was released as a 10-year anniversary edition of Planetarium titled The Knot-Hole Man. It looks like an intruiging read, and I'd love to support the people behind Planetarium but unfortunately, for some odd reason, they can't ship to Canada (though they can ship to USA, strangely enough).

In any case - Planetarium, go check it out, I bet I'll hear back from some of you in 12 weeks :P

Christine and I saw Fantastic Mr. Fox last night. What a great film! I really enjoyed the animation and how they moved about, and after a while of its finding its groove, it just worked so well. *double-whistle, double-tongue-click, double-finger-point* XD It definitely will become a classic for stop-motion animation, especially since they went with the 80's style even though it was made in the 00's.

I also wanted to talk about another animated movie that I've seen recently, 9. ( cut for spoilers and thoughts )
