Jan. 22nd, 2004 05:42 pmExam was not too bad. Think I've passed, anyway.
So I came home and watched a Channel 5 movie: Marabunta. The four stupidest people on the planet become stranded in a small town in Alaska which has become overrun by man-eating ants. There's this smug scientist and this ditzy ditz, and they end up nearly going over a waterfall, but they make it onto land and they start having meaningful glances and eating each other with their eyes (or something) and the smug scientist says, "If we stick together, our chances of survival will greatly improve.." and then gives her a smug "bay-bee" smile. So, they're the last people in the town and the only way out is by this mountain pass and they're all ready to go. Cut to scene with two men looking at said mountain pass. "They're probably dead," says one. "I say we blow up the pass now." So they do. In the end the four stupidest people on the planet go to this dam and the smug scientist goes to find explosives to blow it up and flush all the ants "back to South America", and the other stupid man says to him, "Here, take this, just in case," and hands him a gun. Because, as you know, the most useful thing in the world when you're trying to escape millions upon millions of man-eating ants is a gun. So he takes a rope and climbs down a rock face, nearly gets eaten, and then comes back. But the rope machine which pulls the rope in stops working! The three other stupid people look at him in panic as the man-eating ants approach, and decide *not* to pull him up by hand. And then they blow up the dam and fly away in a handy helicopter.
I quite enjoyed it. :)
I bought a little block of almond halva which I will be eating at my discretion within the next few days.
Now what?
