Hee. I thought you meant the continent at first, Barb. Then I realized what thread I was in.
Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Just got back from Australia.
Heh -- on a walk with my parents the other day, we ran into a neighbor, who used the exact same phrasing, and we all thought she had been on a trip! Sure, a trip to the movie theater...
Ha! Well, and I'm in such a wonderfully, blurry daze still, I forgot to italicize.
You wanna know the real tragedy? My in-laws are going in two weeks. To the continent.
I wanna stow away.
Finally saw the Bond flick on Friday: felt like an addendum to the first one. Saw it with somebody who hadn't seen Casino Royale. He enjoyed it - but was understandably confused by some of it.
Also thought that the action scenes were too confusing. (I thought that and thought that there was going to be some big payoff to the intercutting of the sewer/roof chase with the Palio at the beginning so that was disappointing.) I liked Olga and the way he treated her as a colleague. I also liked Fields and was sorry that she was killed. I wonder if they cut scenes where they say that her first name is Strawberry.
Oh, also saw Four Christmases yesterday.
A few laughs but mostly disappointing. (Although there were some amazing actors in that thing.)
For those of you watching Return of the King on TNT, Don't forget this handy visual aid.
holy shit! that's insane and awesome all at the same time. much like fandom itself.
wow...
Hee!
Watched most of the first hour and a half before Amazing Race came on. After all, I know how it turns out (LotR, not AR).
But after AR, you could have flipped back and seen all the heartbreaking endings. I mean, in theory you could have. And it would still have the emotional impact. In theory, at least. Ummm...yeah.
I don't think I could ever live at Bag End. Cozy and charming, yes, but the name would forever give me the nagging feeling that I was living in a scrotum.
Well, if you live in a cul de sac, you live in Bag End already! (Cul de sac = end of bag. Tolkien loved his little puns.)
