Habe heute abend anderthalb Kilo Spargel geschält. 58 Stück, wenn ihr das unbedingt wissen mußt. War eine Heidenarbeit, aber es meint wir werden dreimal hintereinander Spargel essen. Yum!
James Cameron's Avatar finally came out on DVD. I haven't seen it in the cinema, so I bought it and watched it tonight. I was surprised how much I liked it, despite the sometimes glaringly obvious CGI-background. Loved the alien fauna and flora, even though CGI characters still don't move convincinly. Considering that this film took place on a low-gravity mond, however, it wasn't so off-putting as in, say, "Beowulf".
The plot was woefully predictable, though. Noble savages, greedy corporations, bloodthirsty soliders, unlikely love affair... oh, god, been there, done that, still falling asleep from it. Still, the basic idea of the avatars was good, and I enjoyed the sci-fi parts of it before it turned into all that mystical mumbo-jumbo.
All in all, my money was well-invested.
