Sometimes I wish it were easier to go out. I used to love the feeling of leaving the theatre after a good movie, after the good ones it would always take a while to adjust to the world again, a brief liminal period the magic of which can’t really be re-captured by turning up the living room lights.
Hi, I found you thanks to galacticanews - you may have already noticed a comment posted in your "Rapture" commentary.
At any rate, I just wanted to say "hi", and between your BSG commentary and that statement right there, I'm adding you to my flist. My wife and I have recently had two kids, and I don't go out much anymore - quite a change from the two or three movies a week I caught in cinemas during college. And while I've mused at length about a great many aspects of the film experience, the "leaving the theater" aspect had never been considered, but seeing you put it that way... yes, that's it, exactly.
