Success!

Made Mum watch the first Star Trek reboot movie, and she 'really enjoyed' it. She also enjoyed Captain America. We're going to try The Avengers next, when we have a chunk of time to kill (that thing is long). We're also reading the Sherlock Holmes stories aloud. I am on a roll with fandom conversions.

Next stop...er...I don't know what's left...

I felt this way every time we had to dissect something for English, because I kept thinking 'if people were doing this to something I wrote, I would think they were nuts'. I mean, maybe they did write with the deeper meaning in mind, but I know for myself that things that end up having layers in my stories are more accident than design.

I also think there's an element of fan girls going 'but he's not evil, he's just misunderstood! He's brainwashed, he doesn't know what he's doing!'
