I just finished watching Howl's Moving Castle (for what must only be the second time in my life, please do not judge me for that), and maybe I'm crying a little, but in a good way. And now I want to watch something else that's just as good (or better!), but I have no idea where to even start.

So, um. It's been a while since I last updated (a week, I think?), mainly because my body decided it needed it be weird (period-related symptoms, but no period, WTF?) and then my brain decided it needed to be extra scary on Friday, which I'm still recovering from ( Read more... )

After last weeks post about the amount of subtitled showings at my local cinema that week (22 - 28 June 2010), I decided to have a look at the figures for this week (29 June - 5 July 2010) - [Note: The weeks given start on a Tuesday, as that's when I happened to check the listings ( Read more... )

At my local cinema, 21 films are scheduled to be shown between Tuesday 22nd and Monday 28th June 2010. When added together, there will be 353 separate showings during this time.

Out of all those showings, only 1 showing will have subtitles.

So please, when I say I can't watch a film in the cinema because I need subtitles, don't tell me that I ( Read more... )
