I couldn't stand Wicked the book. Hates Gregory maguire I do. Hates him.
The musical is fun.
Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So I just saw Let the Right One In. I think this may be my new all-time favorite vampire movie.
Also, check out these cool dolls: [link]

Wasn't it great? However, I feel the book was even better than the movie. Waaaaay more disturbing.

I feel moved to remind people that my birthday is a mere 9 days away, and vampire dolls are always appropriate gifts. ::grin::
(Edit: Unless they're Twilight-related. But Twilight has nothing to do with proper vampires, so I shouldn't need to point that out, right?)

I read a Wikipedia entry on the book. It explained the relationship between Eli and the old guy.
Yeah, I can see the book being way more disturbing. Which means I need to read it now.
eta: I just bought a lock for my bike. Which means I can zip to downtown Evanston to buy it right now....

Now tagless for your comfort.

Wise to point this out since they are releasing Twilight Barbies. For real.

Ken and Barbie are, however, the perfect dolls for Twilight.

Well that's just silly. That totally undercuts the message of the stories, because everyone knows what little girls and boys do with Barbie Dolls.

Please tell me Mattel is making the Edward doll out of glittery, glittery plastic. Please.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

But with Twilight Barbies, we could TOTALLY make our own Todd Haynes Barbie Movies! IT WOULD BE EPIC!
