Movies & More in Taipei

On Sunday (12/21) I went to see The Day the Earth Stood Still with Jim. While it had some cool special effects, the film was just OK in my opinion; I could have waited until the DVD was released and saved myself NT$300+. Anyway, had a nice visit with my friend, who still longs to go back to the US.

We had lunch at Burger King in the mall (only my second time eating at BK here), then wandered around the biggest Eslite store I've been in so far (large foreign language learning section). On our way to Starbucks we saw this guy performing an impressive dance with a large hoop. I don't know what this style is called, but here's a video I took:
