pushing daisies + movie meme redux
And after months I finally caught up on Pushing Daisies. I've seen everything I was missing last night and actually re-watched one because I didn't remember it and it's good because I finally can start watching it as it goes again. God, that show is just so adorable. It so just is. ♥
And I caught up also with notes for one class. Now I need to catch up with the other two *sigh*. But, I've also seen His Prettiness' movie that was out on dvd after three years with no distributor and it was really, really good. For once. But since I think tomorrow I'll have a pretty big movies recs post, since I'll finally manage to see Miracle In Sant'Anna (which is getting ridiculous, I've been wanting to watch if for two weeks and still haven't), I'll just ramble about it then. And since we're talking movies, I'll steal a meme from pnr. I'm not using the same movies I used last time I did this though.

Why did I choose all dialogue lines? Oh well.
