You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

I had a funny line about Memento, but I forgot it.

Part of being a script supervisor is tracking continuity for the project you're working on. Part of doing that is taking polaroids of everything so you remember where all the props were and stuff.

On the shoot I worked last week, I couldn't control myself. I had to take one extra picture of our lead, just to write "TEDDY" on the front and "DON'T BELIEVE HIS LIES" crossed out with "HE IS THE ONE, KILL HIM" underneath it.

And no, having too much time on one's hands is never a problem a script supervisor ever runs in to.

There was also a side of, "Damn, Kate. You look like Jessica!" which distracted me.

Every time I see a picture of Kate from that movie, I first think it's Jess.

Speaking of Ewan, what did I just get delivered to me today???

And speaking of Bale, Empire of the Sun arrived yesterday.

I have to remind myself that I'm allowed to watch it and not feel squicked or ooked at his extreme youth on account of him being, oh, my age. Mostly, I've just been remembering how much I love that movie, and wanting to watch it again. Just have to remember to wait a week or two before watching Velvet Goldmine again this time.

Sean: Ha!

Phil Nugent has a great joke about Memento buried in this amusing story on his blog.

Always Anti-fascist!

Love the Pillow book, Tep. And no, not because there is a fic called "The Pillow Book of Tim Bayliss" but that made me happy too.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The Pillow Book

Yeuuuuugh. Even the promise of naked Ewan couldn't make me watch more than 20 minutes of that movie.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory this afternoon. It's actually quite lovely. I enjoyed this version a lot. Mostly because you could tell, really, that Willy just didn't care for children all that much.

I liked the first half of the film better than the factory tour, but it was interesting. I'm leaning on the side of much better than the version with Wilder.

and BONUS!!!--CORPSE BRIDE TRAILER!!!! HOT DAMN!!!!

Loved the Goblet of Fire trailer, too.

Dear PTB,

I have been a very good goth girl, and not stabbed any of my co-workers with hatpins. Please let include a trailer for Corpse Bride when I go see Charlie & the Chocolate Factory tonight.

Thanks bunches!

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Too bad Ewan and Christian and Jonathan were all so damned ugly and undesirable.

Yeah, that is a pity.

sigh.

What? Drooling, you say? No, no, not at all. Ahem.

You know, we must not forget that horrible hag, Toni Collette, when thinking of Velvet Goldmine. Such a shame that movie was filled with unattractive naked people getting their groove on...

t wipes away drool puddle.
