No, wait for it--
I still think the coolest thing about "being an adult" is the whole autonomy over what I do and when I do it when it comes to socializing. So if, say, I come home from work and find ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
zinjadu sitting in front of my door and going "dude, Harry Potter?" I can just toss my stuff down and head on back out without having to explain or justify or even really let anyone know where I'm going. (I mean, I did call my mom, but that was also a preplanned thing, and she would've fussed if I'd forgotten to call. Again.)
So, yes! Harry Potter movie -- I feel so accomplished; if not for my accomplices, there would be a very good chance I would not have seen it at all. 8Db But I'm glad I did, and it was definitely one of the cooler parts about being "adult." I mean, yeah, there's that whole job thing and the bills and the headaches, but there's also going to a movie and then holing up at a Red Robin afterwards with buddies and being. Kind of stupid, but that's par course♥
I also saw the Transformers movie yesterday, as part of a team outing (I can think of much worse things than an official company outing and being paid to see what was in fact a ver entertaining movie). Apparently I internalized more of the Transformers mythos from when I was a kid than I thought -- a lot of it was vaguely familiar in that tip-of-the-tongue (brain) sort of way.
The downside? I've seen the trailer for The Dark is Rising.
...
Christopher Eccleston, I do love you. But that trailer made me want to stab someone with the ice cream cone I was eating. :(
(I mean, okay, the friends I was with haven't read the book, so they agreed that it looked like a sort of generically cool fantasy movie. But as soon as I heard them going on about Will, Will, Will, I, I ... whut.)
And I still have roughly an hour before bedtime, so! Time to work on![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)

I have failed to find the trailer anywhere online, though. Should I be prepared to cover my eyes? (I was just thinking about those books, too, because the Wild Hunt turns up in the Dresden Files books at one point as well...)

Seeing as Aster gave you the link to the trailer, I think you know how it is, now. .__. Mall security and some random wtf love story, and apparently they took out all the Arthurian references? That's just a rumor I've heard, but it's the same one that said that the Rider would have a girlfriend, so.
