Watching Once Again

[veradee]

The other week Galaxy Quest was on TV, and it inspired me to rewatch some of Alan Rickman's films, which I hadn't seen for quite some time.

Obviously, I started with GQ. With the exception of Star Trek, I've never been a science fiction fan, but I very much enjoy GQ anyway. It's very funny and so cleverly done. Apart from that, I have a soft spot

I have heard the same thing about TMD, that it is the closest to AR of any of his movies. Or at least I would like to think so. :D

My very favorite is Sense and Sensibility, hands down. It is a very restrained performance but with so much fire below the surface.

Yes, it is a nice thought, indeed. Who could resist Jamie? :)

I love S&S very much as well, but it's the first of AR's films I ever bought and therefore the one I have watched the most. It was time to rewatch some of his other films.

No, I think I've never cried as early as that. :)

I'm only seen AABA once when it was released at the cinema. I do own the video, but I couldn't bring myself to watch it. I rather liked it when I first saw it although I thought that Stella was quite annoying. But I'm afraid a couple of remarks and manips made by some fangirls about the sex scene, which I once inadvertently read about, make me dread watching that scene (and the entire film) again.

The kind where the girls imagine Stella as themselves and PL O'Hara as Alan Rickman and then speculate whether AR would look exactly like that when he orgasms. To read about that I don't find sexy but off-putting.

I'm not sure I could live with either Nina or Jamie. Nina is too chaotic for my taste, but Jamie is too tidy. And it wouldn't go down well with me either if he suddenly started to redecorate my flat. But of course he also has many characteristics that are just plain adorable.

Rather like hiding under the blanket in bed or sneaking into the bathroom when you're having a bath. ;)
