Trojan Horse MLP is adorable!

Pinned all the Cistern pictures. Inspiration for something...written.

Will have to watch Aretha a little later, but I know I will love. 😊

i love the way people alter my little ponies, painting them and re-hairing them and adding bits and just going nuts. i don't know if you ever saw mad max: fury road, but someone made my little ponies of the main characters, and they're FANTASTIC.

abandoned victorian architecture really does lend itself to plot bunnies, doesn't it.

aretha may or may not give you chills. she's still incredible.

What is this \o/ for the snow? Do you want it to be like last year? Well, do you? :D But yaaaaaay, I escaped just in time!

Is that the movie you told me about, something about fishermen and Massachusetts? Other than the accent and the pretty, was the movie itself any good?

i don't want a repeat of last year! i'm not crazy. :p but it seemed wrong to end the year without having seen snow. so now i've seen snow. :D

you might be thinking of the finest hours, about the biggest coast guard rescue in history, which was off the coast of cape cod. (and stars chris pine, who's smaller than chris built-like-a-brick-shithouse hemsworth but also very pretty.) did i tell you about it? it's not out yet. i liked in the heart of the sea. it's got tension without having a lot of actiony dramatic scenes.

(the only other movie about fishermen and massachusetts that i can think of is a perfect storm, which was when a bunch of fishermen from gloucester got caught in a massive storm and drowned. but i have no idea why i would have mentioned it. i never saw it, because i knew everyone was going to die and i didn't want to watch that.)

And now everything is well in the jungle :D

The Finest Hour, yes, though I don't remember in which context it came up. It sounded good and it went on my list of things to check out. I did see The Perfect Storm! Everyone indeed died after struggling bravely for the entire movie, after you got a glimpse of their lives on dry land, got attached to them and rooted for them. It was still a good movie, though. Sad but good.

Sc and I went to see Heart of the Ocean yesterday as well - I'm with you on the accents, although I don't think Chris was the only offender. ;)

his must have been the most obviously weird, because i don't remember anyone else's accent being quite that off. altho possibly because he's chris hemsworth i was just paying more attention to him....
