I rented Daredevil tonight with the hopes of enjoying it while folding 200 pamphlets for my mother. I found myself less than intrigued, and decided to finish it later, and am on my way to bed now. But, as I was brushing my teeth, taking out my contacts, etc, it struck me why I was finding this type of movie so much less appealing of late...
Role-playing
And why? Because the Gods that I have had in my games have always been so amazing. They come up with these fabulous plot lines, and tie characters together realistically. They include people, for the most part, and leave you wanting more. Even after the worst of games, there's this feeling that one wants to continue - to find out more about the characters' lives. Its not quite as bad for as I have all my characters neatly living in my head. Or maybe it's worse, I don't know. Anyways, it struck me that after being involved in such events, movies, even decent ones, just wouldn't cut it anymore.
That's not to say that I won't watch movies anymore, I'll just be more abundant with my sarcastic commentaries...
I guess there is a plus side to this as well.
