Okay, I don't normally find LOLcats funny, but my first one ended up being pretty hilarious (you'll like it). Some of the others are sort of amusing too. Heh.

The whole process is hit-or-miss, but the hits are fantastic.

I liked the ones using titles from Neil Gaiman's journal.

Hee, nice.

It's totally a zombie movie. If it moans like a zombie and groans like a zombie and mercilessly hunts the living like a zombie, it's a zombie movie. :) I know purists disagree, but I'm with you, kid.

Hee, thanks.

"All About Steve"? Seriously?

I'm going to see Stardust tonight, I'm super excited. The friend I'm going with had no idea it was based on a book, though. It'll be interesting to see if that makes our reactions different, since I love the book to pieces. (And? Wearing my BPAL Yvaine. *dork*)

Hee, do you like it (the BPAL)? I loved the ideas for the Stardust scents, but I can't wear florals, woe.

And when my sister and I went to see the movie--I loved the book and loved the movie; she didn't even know what it was about and she loved the movie. I'm just saying, you both have a good shot at having a good time. : )

I like it a lot - it's a metallic lavendar, which sounds more like a shade of nail polish than a perfume. The metal tang dies down after a while, though. It's interesting.

Ironically, we never made it to the movie; downed power lines led to a giant traffic jam that meant we missed the start, and even if we'd been in time the side of the highway that the theater is on was closed off. XD So we went to another theater and saw the Simpsons. We're going to try again soon.

For the record, I was highly disappointed by Superbad.

I thought it was a remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers...?

cleolinda August 19 2007, 21:25:24 UTC

I did too, and apparently it started off that way, and then it... wasn't. Apparently the production's had a fairly tortured history (see the bit about the reshoots).
