From the pacing of the movie and unfolding of some of the relationships in it, I'd guess that they're aiming for one more prequel.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: TM Suits and Robes
My movie last night was American Mary, a horror thriller. Definitely not for the weak here but a very, very well done film. And not just a good horror film but a well done film over all. It's on VUDU as a pre-theatrical release but at regular rental price. I like films with substance to them not just contrived focus group driven entertainment. It's about a medical student who gets into the world of body modification. Very Lynchian though more Jennifer than David. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1959332/ I've also been watching episodes of Preamar on HBO VOD which is a Brazilian TV series about an unemployed bank executive. Lots of Rio beach scenery and some Brazilian music.

Do they even let you play your Bruce Cockburn songs, softly, in your cube? I'll reply to this merely to point out how out of touch or essentially conservative and non-freak you are. I work again (as many may have guessed) for IBM, in the same offices that used to be ILOG, the French AI company I worked for before IBM acquired it. Today I wore sandals, jeans, and a T-shirt that says, You can't take the sky from me (a line from Firefly) to work. In the entire building, no one was wearing a suit, including the executives. Everyone was pretty much dressed the way they wanted to, in fact. Our IBM office was chosen from among literally thousands of others to work on the project I'm assigned to *because* the project is at the very top of IBM's Priority List. Without exaggeration, no other project within IBM is seen as being of greater impact to IBM's future and its future bottom line than Worklight. When you have a bunch of developers and information development specialists who have proved their worth in the past, and have consistently produced the best quality work in all of IBM, you don't fuck with that by telling them what to wear. If you had to deal with that, I feel for you. Why didn't you just quit and work for more interesting companies? Where I worked we looked askance at anyone who came to a job interview wearing a suit. We were definitely not a suit company.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: TM Suits and Robes
the woman who gave my intro and prep lectures was a god looking woman - I wouldn't have cared what she was wearing - of course, when I attended the prep lecture and personal interview, I was so tanked up on dope I could hardly talk.
