( The call of the wild. )

Everywhere I turn, people are trying to spoil The Avengers for me by telling me what to think of it. I don't want to know! So I'm going radio silent until this evening. I hope I make it to 8:30.

Most of the time, I like knowing what people thought going into a movie. I like to have a general feel about the thing and what to expect so I can modulate ( Read more... )

I dreamt, vividly, last night, and I remember it so well, perhaps, because I was woken abruptly by a series of coughs that are the last remnants of a cold. (Yes, I caught a cold in summer. Sigh.)

If there's even a slim chance this is playing before movies opening this weekend that I had no interest in otherwise, like Scream 4, I WILL GO SEE THEM TO SEE IT ON THE BIG SCREEN.

I have a secret weakness for Poms, and someone made a Pomeranian in a tophat with monocle and I AM NOT MADE OF STONE.
