We went to finally catch Spiderman 3 instead of Xmortis. We both wanted to dress up and wanted to go out, but we wanted to go to Manray. Not TT's. Not a diveyish bar where you go to see crunchy local bands. I mean, TTs is a good place to see Waltham play or to see some HC band play, but I've never been crazy about it as a goth venue (despite the coolness of the old Sunday event that used to be there). Being that we're non-drinkers, and not a lot of our friends were going to be there, and that there is a tiny dance floor well, there isn't too much that's appealing. I hate to say this, because it bums me out. The scene is doing the best it can, but its just not what I want, and I'm not going to go out of some sense of obligation. I kind of struggle with my feelings on this over and over again. I miss going out, but there's nowhere I want to go to.
So we saw Spiderman. I was expecting the worst so I actually did enjoy it. Bruce Campbell was excellent, and I agree with what others have said with them trying to cram too many stories into the movie. Kirsten Dunst's teeth just freak me out every time I see them - they kind of remind me of old Tom Cruise teeth ala Legend.
Exiting the theater, we saw a 17 year old dressed as a hooker. Now, I'm not trying to judge (because if you saw me in all my metal chick glory in the late 80's/very early 90's I looked like one too - just a different flavor). It must be fashionable now, because this is the 3rd 16-17 year old we've seen with super super super short skirt (or shorts), tiny tank top or tube top, and HUGE fuck me stripper shoes. The first few were in a Target store of all places, and had jackets over their outfits that were just long enough to make them look like they were naked under there. Where do suburban kids in the metrowest area even get these things? Bakers perhaps? That was the thing that always eluded me as a early teen wanting to be cool - the shoes. The selections for metal chick boots weren't all that plentiful at The Arsenal Mall (and my Star Market Grocery Bagging job budget was kind of prohibitive of it). My, how things have changed! :)
