I loved it too. Glad that my Tumnus love was not roused to ire by the movie Tumnus, who was as charming and fey and daffy as I hoped he would be.
I am a large, semi-muscular man. I can take it. Don't hide behind Mal 'cause you know he'll shoot it down for you. Tell me.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I've decided that the girl who plays Natalie ini Love, Actually needs to play Tonks.
Have they picked a Tonks yet?

Hey. New board.
Oh, that would be a good match, maybe. But then, I've never gotten a firm grasp on Tonks' look - is she supposed to be really tall or something? I get that impression, but maybe that's because "clumsy" means "lanky" in my mind.

She morphs - she has no real look. She can look how she wants.

She's a good match for the potential "blahness" that is Tonks's natural state, but that picture makes me think she can also do the vivaciousness that is Pink Tonks. Unfortunately, she's about ten years too old for book Tonks, but since actors' ages don't really count for the HP films (see, Alan Rickman), maybe they won't pay so much attention to that.

Hey. New board.
Am I crazy for thinking Keira could do it? I'm probably crazy, but I love her so much I want her in everything.
Edit: It's too bad Amber Tamblyn is too young. She could do the clumsy bit, but she still looks high school age. I want her in everything too, though.
Edit 2: Of course, Amber is way not-British, too. I guess I should keep my thoughts in the realm of the sane, huh?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Forced Emmett to watch A Christmas Story two nights ago. He sat with his Mega Gir in his lap and declared, "I'm bored. This movie is boring." in his Gir-voice every twenty minutes throughout the movie.
And yet, in typically Emmettian fashion, the next morning requested that we "watch the movie with the BB gun." And with surprising perspicuity announced, "he's tight!" when Darren McGavin appeared on screen again.
He's now on his third viewing.
I'm kind of getting a crush on Ralphie's teacher now. The actress is just so good, and gets to play all the fantasy parts too.
