In-process commentary....

( A long and storied career of dumb and crazy )

At first, the news about Jared's new movie project made sense. Who cares what the subject matter is, it's Peter freaking O'Toole, and any young actor would kill to work with him.

But, oh, the badness. The ego and the craptacular painting and the mealy-mouthed drippy sentimentalism. And the BADNESS. Three movies. THREE. A TRILOGY of badness ( Read more... )

I am v. sad to have completely missed the SPN fandom love meme. I need to stop this whole periodic retreat from LJ and fandom. For a while I was having this weird withdrawal from fic-reading that was worrying me, but has fortunately now worn off. barkley's fandom love vid is v. adorable in a total 80s flashback kind of way.

Hee! Oh, Heroes, you ( Read more... )

For some reason, I'm very awkward about being away from LJ. If I'm busy enough at work that I can't do more than skim, I feel horribly guilty about not commenting on entries, especially if people are talking about their lives.

Two other things that I forgot to say about "Angel" last night:
Eve's clothes are hideous and need to stop.
"There should be a law against adding y's to the end of people's names." "That mean I have to call you Wesle?" - HA! ::still snickering::

sleeping on the bus, particularly sleeping standing up makes for a very groggy me. so, got in, got coffee -- and put my head down on the desk for a 5 minute nap. thank god for boss that comes in a little late every day, since I actually managed to pass out/get some real sleep for those 5 minutes. am now refreshed, though coffee is cold ( Read more... )

heh. So many pretty broody men.

The Children of Dune mini-series has its flaws - Susan Sarandon is essentially wasted as a one-note villainess, all the characters get a little shafted in the development department b/c there's so many of them - but stunning visuals, nifty effects and a whole passel of good lookin', intense-eyed, well-built boys ( Read more... )
