The Invisible Novelologist

Saw Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs again.  What a fantastic film.  I planned on buying the DVD, but put it off because I knew I’d probably be seeing it again at the bargain cinema.  But after seeing it, I almost stopped and picked it up.  This is just such a wonderful movie.  Bizarre, goofy, funny, and heartwarming.  Highly recommended.

Onto the subject at hand…

Recently, I found myself in a short debate on the nature of villainy.  What makes an interesting villain?  What doesn’t?  Is a colorful villain the same as a more subtle villain?  Stuff like that.  Rather than repeat it all, I recommend you check out the comments on my Opinions Vary blog entry.  Some ideas are shared, and it makes some interesting reading.
