It was another busy Saturday. This past months, I've been nothing
but pre-occupied on the weekends. Sometimes I'd like to go back
to the old routine of just lounging around on my weekends, doing mostly
nothing, but eating, watching, and sleeping.
So I had yet another party to attend. This time it's my friend's
son's birthday party. It was nice and relaxing actually, but
prior to that, I went to an all you can buffet with my family and
friends. Ofcourse, on Friday I had that other party that I went
to and such. Yup, I'd like a weekend off from my weekend off.
I bought one of those classic TV games for the b-day boy. Pretty
cool toy actually, 5 games in one controller that hooks directly to the
TV. I got the one that has dig-dug and rally-x in it, and I actually
wouldn't mind owning one myself. There were actually different
variations to the toy, but I chose that particular one. It's a
good thing too, because he received another gift that contained TWO of
those toys. I was afraid that I was going to be that duplicate
gift. Thank God that wasn't the case.
We went back to my girl's house where we lounged for whatever's left of
the night. She ended up falling asleep, I ended up watching
Transformers the movie, and the five parter of Season 3 : "The five
faces of darkness." Yes, I've been hit lately with the nostalgia
bug, and what better way to start than the Transformers. So I've
gone through the "classic" first two seasons, and quite honestly, I
have to say that they only mildly slightly live up to my memories of
when I was young. The magic is still there, but there are so many
flaws, continuity errors, and animation boo-boos, that I was tempted to
just stop watching all together. But I've always been fascinated
with the mythology of the Transformers, and that magic still
remains. Transformers the Movie still holds a very special place
in my heart. What's cool is that I never did get a chance to watch
Seasons 3 - 4. So far, I have to say that the quality of the
animation has gone so down hill compared the past two seasons.
But I must "roll on" 'till the end!
