So that snag? Yeah, I hit it.
Turns out that Knoppix ain't so good at installing programs, so I have yet to see how City of Heroes runs under Linux. Boo-urns. No matter - it is only a temporary setback.
More immediate, however, is Spider-man 2. Go see it. Go see it now. If you have a love for anything Spider-man or anything Sam Raimi has done, go see it at least once. It is not only a wholly superlative film in its own merit, very finely encapsulating almost everything that makes Spider-man appealing, but it is also textured and layered like a Where's Waldo book with references to the Marvel Universe and Sam Raimi's film career all over the place. I love both.
Just go see the freaking movie already!
