I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Gorgeous filming reminds me of the colour palettes in the Life Of Pi trailer. Is there, like, a special Indian film stock/Final Cut setting? And why can't they make a West Indian film that looks that gorgeous? We might not have tigers, but we have stories.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Mmm, sounds like I should see the film, but just as well I waited to rent it.

So Franny wrote an email to her grandmother today to tell her she loves her and she misses her.

And Bradley Whitford just showed up as an oenology professor at UC Davis.

I will admit that Chris Pine does not look his best in a shoulder-length mop.

Okay, and Enrico Colantoni! As a French wine journalist, of all things.

Such a cast.

'Suela,

I thought the movie was just okay. Mildly entertaining at best.

Univision is reporting that people are waiting EIGHT HOURS to fucking vote in Miami. They are determined and remaining in line.

Fucking governor of FL - I hope you are fucking ashamed. This is unconscionable. Fucking unconscionable.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

What Suela fails to note is that Bottle Shock is really predictable drivel!

Yeah, it's not brilliant by any means. And I really disliked the fake love triangle thing.

But I liked the cast, and the cinematography, and it was a nice cozy movie with a feel-good sensibility. Sometimes that's what I'm in the mood for. Some days unchallenging is just fine.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

You had me at Alan Rickman, personally.

t raises an eyebrow

Are you taking the piss? I believe you are.

Which is totally fine by me. It is in fact totally predictable, because everyone knows what happens, and no movie with Chris Pine on the cast will end without him getting the girl. (Even Star Trek, because the Enterprise is the girl in that universe.)

But it was still enjoyable. To me.
