Tales of Interest
Fun fact - the original version of The King's Speech was rated R in the USA. Not because of gory violence, or sex, but because of the presence of a single scene where there's a whoooooole lot of very frustrated cursing. A version rated PG-13 was released after the Oscars in which this scene (which was rather funny and poignant) was cut.
We could only find a version rated PG to go see last night, Trav and I. We had known of the rating kerfuffle in the States, and assumed the same kind of thing happened up here. Boo for censorship, but the movie is going out of theatres and all, so there's not so much selection as there was. Disappointing to not see that scene, we thought, but I still wanted to see it (yay linguists!), so away we went.
And yet there there in the very PG-rated movie was the scene, in full glory. Canada's film classification people have their heads firmly on their shoulders. :)
Main game of Pokemon White completed as of a couple days ago. Just the vast task of filling up the PokeDex left. :3 I'm actually going to do it this time. No, seriously!
...It'll be a whole lot easier when Trav rigs us up a wireless router, though, so I can actually get to trading. If anyone who has Pokemon Black (or available Tepigs or Oshawotts) wants to get a thing going eventually, let me know~
And finally, for all the dudes on my flist here who do the RP thing, you may be interested in checking out the RP Repository - s'free, almost completely customisable sites for roleplaying characters, along with other neat things like group areas and forums and what-not. Have a Rhaetia, for example!
