Today's genre is...

Thursday was a day of films.
Hot Fuzz proved to be much better than the trailers would suggest, providing another pleasingly humorous performance from Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, a highly recommended comedy.
Later that night I sat back for Sunshine, which kept me entertained largely because I absolutely love the space borne sci-fi genre, but the rather disappointing plot direction of throwing in a crazed killer when they were already in a situation that could have provided more than enough excitement let it down severely. None of that was aided by the constantly ridiculous scientific inaccuracies, and while one would argue that it is science fiction, there are still rules you must play by, as all respectable sci-fi media will either take the line of completely creating its own world of scientific rules and laws, much like the 40k Black Library novels, or stick to hard science fiction and only explore within theoretically possible scenarios. Danny Boyle seems to think he has Hollywood's golden thumbs up of approval to do whatever the hell he wants and make science his bitch, unfortunately he does not, and this only leads to bad film making.

In my search for another anime title to keep me occupied as I wait for Black Order's infrequent Gurren Lagann releases I decide to give the ever so popular Fate/Stay Night a try, but unfortunately the fantasy format takes exactly the same turn as Shakugan no Shana and quickly wears out my patience. There are two facets to these type of fantasy titles, magical combat and character relations, the latter rarely ventures any deeper than the most basic of introductions and provides nothing in the way of substantiality, and the former almost unfailingly manages to make itself a poorly animated chore to sit though.
I've got a couple of titles more along the lines of my preferred genres downloading, so hopefully they're safe bets that will secure me some enjoyable viewing.

Recruit may finally be the first job agency to actually come through for me, as things are going it looks like I might be lucky enough to get thrown a few shifts here and there over the Christmas period doing some menial labour for some suits and ties organization or another.
Not permanent, but money's money.
