GIP / movie review
In which I grab some Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire preview pictures, in order to play with this icon tutorial, and wind up mostly making fun of how the kids look in their "formal" dress. I am extra mature.

(and can I just pimp how much I LURVE the WYSIWYG LJ update journal option?? Makes this GIP business SO much easier.)
Then I made two that fall into what I hope will be a continuing "omgwtfyay!" icon group, featuring pictures from the news that are just too rockin' to ignore.
(I used SO many annoying acronyms in this post. Just sayin'.)
Also, in movie-going news, if you have some time to kill I heartily recommend seeing Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, a very entertaining (if not to be taken too seriously) movie. You know, it hasn't been too long since "Ally McBeal," so maybe you do still remember that Robert Downey, Jr. used to reliably deliver the really fucking funny and the charming, but you've sure as shit forgotten that Val Kilmer did. And yet in this movie here they are, both doing so as if it hasn't been over a decade since stuff like "Heart and Souls" or "Real Genius," like they never forgot how. It's worth going just for that. Yeah, I lost the so-tangled-it's-macrame "plot" somewhere about halfway in and just had to go on faith that the clues were adding up, but the banter (and RDJ's always-excellent, full-of-soul acting) were just too cool for me to care.
