    i do not know any combination of letters that can properly capture my love for this film and the rest of the trilogy.

    these films always keep me coming back for more. they are entertaining, witty, and undeniably funny. book to film adaptations are more often misses than not, but i’d argue the DOAWK films are even better than the books.

    there’s something out there along the lines of “men will discover things at the age of 30 that women discovered during middle school” … this is a prime example.
