That's awesome, where was this?

[a fine mess]

At the Beijing airport waiting to board back to the states!

[wickedrum]

so a chance encounter?

[a fine mess]

Yep, and she was with her family.

[wickedrum]

did you talk to her?

[a fine mess]

Very briefly. And I didn't recognize her at first. Because I didn't watch Alien prior to meeting her or any of the movies. Mom was first to point out she looked familiar, must be an actress.

[wickedrum]

you didn't watch...

[a fine mess]

It sounded like it was a horror movie and I don't do horror well.

[reason to believe]

My sister met her too cause my sister is a border guard at an airport. She's a really tall woman.

I love Alien and Aliens. I think Alien was the first movie that traumatized my brain thanks to an older friend who played the "chestburster" scene to me when I was just 7. I couldn't eat dinner after and that was the night my parents actually took us out to a restaurant, lol, grr.

[a fine mess]

Awwe Leanne. Yeah 7 is too young for these movies.

[wickedrum]

my brother introduced me to horror movies from a very young age and I did the same with my own children. They are all horror fans

[a fine mess]

I'm in my 20s and still don't like horror. Depends on what kind though. I can take blood/gore, but I have my limits when it comes to horror.

[wickedrum]

some people just don't like it

[a fine mess]

It scares me, lol. I'm not a great fan of comedy either, can only take it in small doses.

[wickedrum]

I agree about comedy. But if scary and 'funny' are out, is there a lot left?
