So tired

[cleolinda]

Aw, hell. I've been sneezing a lot lately, and then today I came down with these weird alternating hot and cold spells. I don't know that I'm running an actual fever, but it sucks either way. It's probably allergies. But still--I am determined to not go into the month of October without finishing the annotated Fifteen Minutes thing because I HAVE

I used to confuse Uwe Boll with Manute Boll. "Why'd that basketball player start making crappy movies?"

This is the second time I've heard about Keira Knightley doing a remake of "My Fair Lady." I had hoped it was just an evil internet joke.

Rex Harrison is probably rolling in his grave.

That's the really annoying bit- if they want a big star for the box office, they can cast a really famous, charismatic guy who can't sing in the Higgins role. With Eliza you need to have someone who can sing. Soprano. Which Keira Knightley has never shown any sign of being capable of, let alone being anything like Julie Andrews or Marni Nixon.

As soon as I read that, my thoughts for some reason immediately went to Emmy Rossum, and I flashed back to seeing her in "Phantom of the Opera."

Suddenly, Keira Knightley didn't seem so bad.

Nooo, someone new! And talented! A star is born and all that! Cast famous classy actors as Higgins and Pickering and Mrs. Higgins, get true singing actors for Eliza and Freddy. (If they cut "On the Street Where You Live" I will be SO SAD.)

NEW HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE WHAT. WHAT. ::flail:: That's a whole stew of mixed feelings, there...

"Eoin Colfer to write new Hitchhiker's Guide book."

I almost spit Crystal Lite ALL OVER my laptop (good thing I didn't: my baby is sensitive these days).

Srsly? I mean...AF was entertaining. But...Hitchhiker's is so massive! I'm not sure it can ever be done. Also, he's basically asking for nasty mail and reviews. People like me will hate anything he comes up with. No matter how awesome it actually is. We're just annoyingly devoted like that.

Basically everything you said.

the sia song from the end of six feet under is gorgeous.

i really wish i hadn't seen the cover of her latest album, because that made me never want to hear anything she ever records. ever.
