phantomasRandomly in the past days (week?)
Watched Wall-e. Beautifully done, especially the beginning, which is pretty much the saddest, most heartbreaking scenario I may have ever seen, and it goes on to be okay overall. I am much amused by the studios necessity of making Wall-e a 'male' robot and Eve a 'female' one (the metaphore about the green leaf 'pulsating life' inside of her...not subtle), otherwise we would have robotic m-preg *sighs* /a no-holds barred buddy couple, where the other partner is worth more than the 'DIRECTIVE'...
I enjoyed it but I regret Pixar selling out to Disney.
I just re-watched "Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye" with Nick Lea. Oh, how gorgeous he is (and good in the part too)...I don't like the film ending as it does! But it's a feast for screencapping and Nick does angst so well :D
VIVIDCON vids are popping up! YAY!
Connotations! Slash con in October in Newcastle, with Gruboid smut!!! And other fun activities and lots of fan chatting ;)
What else...read and posted links in![[community profile]](http://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
papawinchester for a few John-related stories. I miss John. I am avoiding spoilers for the new SPN season (mostly) but I'm sorry to say I feel a bit detached from it all.
Work is going so-so and I'm getting irked by the little things. It's sunny outside. Watchmen better win the lawsuit 'cause I want to see it!
Decided to delete the rant I typed about stuff about women. It bored even me and I see no future in which these issues will be solved to any degree. But everything that's wrong in the way women are represented in US telly can be found abundantly represented in Two and a Half Men (irkingly, it's also funny, damn).
I may have had too much coffee today. I'm on a warpath with myself, LOL (always start with the biggest obstacle/enemy, the little ones can be crushed later!). And links were too hard to put in this entry.
Also, I'm reading a Bruce Lee biography. Will need to look for those 60s 70s kung-fu films I grew up with.
*wishes for a dragon to come and fly me away*...
*waits for said dragon*....
...never one around when you need one, uh?
You take care, people :)
ETA: I forgot! how could I? Thanks tobiani mentioning iOffer, I may have accidentally acquired the whole series of Laramie, Garrison's Gorillas and The Quest...erm. *ggg* *hides* old, VERY OLD TV series! Which I loved!
