*books tickets for me and Aimee to England*
Oh god. Take me.
You guys can have Daniel...I'll watch.
I just want Alan Davies to understand that he's made a terrible mistake by recently marrying that obviously gorgeous and by-all-reports perfect for him woman. And then, run away with me.
Ha. Aileen, that's a good handwave. I didn't go there at all, but I can see that. Like some labor revolution...
We don't work for the MAN anymore
so,
we don't have to wear your stinking robes!
Besides, have you ever tried flying in one of those things? Oy, the chafing!
So much chafing!
Other things I forgot:
Kingsley was FAB. And those kitten plates? Hysterical.
About
the Blood Quill
: in the book,
Lee Jordan is also subjected to it (Harry recommends using murtlap to heal the bleeding), so making more victims in the film is not that far of a stretch.
I'm totally chastened Kathy. You are completely right. I guess I was thrown off by the
Don't hurt the TWINS!!
knee jerk. Good point by you.
Yes, Aileen, ita on both points. The one scene with the
kitten walking back out of the plate through the catflap made me think forcibly of the "Talk to the butt"
scene in the Stuart Little film. Same kind of cat I think, too.
Yes, Aileen, ita on both points.
Capitalisation is our friend...

No relation between ITA and ita!
No relation between ITA and ita!

Ratatouille
adorability: Yesterday Pixar gave a special screening just for the children's ward at the hospital. It aired on closed-circuit TV in all the kids' rooms, while animators, screenwriters and general purpose Pixar storytellers wandered the halls, poking their heads into every room to chat the little noodles up and see who had questions.
They also passed out toys; late in the afternoon I looked out my office door and saw a wee small girl, who looked not unlike
Monsters, Inc's
Boo, trundling past with her mom and her IV cart beside her and a brand new Ratatouille rat, almost as big as she was, cradled in her arms.
general purpose Pixar storytellers
I can't be the only one who saw this phrase and said, "hey, dream job!"
Also? ADORABLE.
