( Cut for those who don't care to hear about my computer issues. )

Let me just say how much I am now in love with the Silver Surfer : )

Also, every villian worth his salt does in fact need to have both a black leather trench coat and a hooded cape.

(And Jessica Alba really is not a blonde - it just doesn't work.)

God, I love Johnny Depp - what a brilliant actor!

I just got finished watching Edward II. It was intense. And let me just say that Tilda Swinton is just ungodly amazing.

Oh God. I just watched the deleted scenes from Rent. I have never before watched deleted scenes on a dvd where I thought every single one of them should have been left in. Just glorious, all of them, but particularly the "alternate" ending - rather than ending with the montage of Mark's film over the last song, they cut to the bare stage where ( Read more... )

That was good, 'cause I'd actually been worried about how I was doing ( Read more... )

The costumes were gorgeous, the cinematography was absolutely stunning, and the chorreography was just amazing. I think I'm going to have to get a copy of this movie.

So I've now worked 2 evenings at the Monteagle Inn and it seems to be going well. Tonight they left me to lock up so I was by myself for about half an hour, which was sorta wierd, but also thrilling in a way. I was sitting in the office, just sorta looking around trying to remember everything I had to do, and realising I'd done all I could 'til 7 ( Read more... )
