Most recent episode of Psychoville. They killed Mr. Lomax! Not Mr. Lomax!

For people who don't watch the show i.e. everybody, Mr. Lomax was a cantankerous casually racist blind octegenarian toy collector. That's funnier than it sounds.

Saw Mary & Max last night. When I started watching it, I thought it was definitely a film I would like. And while I did like it, I didn't like it as much as I thought I would.

The thing is, because it was a small indie movie it seemed to go out of its way to be inaccessible. And though it was pretty funny ("I would like to be responsible for all chocolate in Heaven, but I cannot, on account of my atheism." *Pop*), it piled on the gloom a bit thick, in a way that didn't really gel with the inherently comic characters. Plus the reliance on letters and narration meant the few times you actually see characters speak were a bit jarring. Ultimately, I enjoyed Max's half of the story a lot more than Mary's, probably because he looked more like a real person.

Still worth a watch though, and since we have psychology students, animation fans and a Jewish atheist here, I expect some of you will have seen it already.
