I blow off the thread for a couple of days and what do I miss? Seryn is doing drugs with her night nurse. Good god woman you really know how to have a lost weekend don't you? I was voted me most decadent and depraved by my class in high school.

I've never done anything with my yahoo stuff except use my flikr account for pictures (I prefer it to photobucket anyhow.) I don't know why. It's easy to just get used to what you've always had and not want to try new things.

And then the reason I keep saying "No new IM accounts" is because I'll be on the computer and I'll be trying to have 3 conversations on MSN with 3 different people, plus check my email or hang out in chat or whatever else I'm doing and the computer keeps making that "ping" noise it makes every time someone posts a comment to me and I just get overwhelmed. It amuses my grandparents who are sitting in the other room listening to the "pings".

I much prefer the telephone.

yup, the floor is here, but i'm still gonna opt for my comfy sofa. And cusions, and pretty paisly shawl.

Well... Casanova was shit.

In defiance of the speed dating circuit they had set up in my local cinema, I went to see a movie (supporting the none desperate single person cause) and well, Casanova was the one.

Its extremely pretty, gorgeous costumes and what not, Heath was great as always, hamming it up in just the right way and keeping the comedy subtle and light as possible, and Sienna wasn't as irritating as I'd expected, though my absolute favorite character in all this was Venice (by the way hubby if you were needing honeymoon ideas)

It just appeared to have been written by some breathless 15 year old girl obviously over the frickin moon about being able to use the word 'fornicate' like a real adult. It seemed to have gained its knowledge of the past from the pages of an Historical Mills and Boon novel and was about as delicate and witty in its dialogue as your average conversation between 2 12yr old txtrs.

It did have some charm, unfortunely it also had every single cliche in the sodding book - including the end-snog-in-the-rain(tm) and considering it was a film about the world greatest lover it was about as sexy as a halibut.

that kinda went on for a while, I meant to stop at 'shit'

well, there you go.

Still worth seeing for the purty dresses, just go on the cheap day.

*reebok reebok reebok*

I went to this improv comedy thing once, where it was some girl's 16th birthday so they did an improptu musical about her. Most hilarious thing I have ever seen EVER. From the song about how she met her boyfriend to someone playing her blind dog and continually bumping into things. But the funniest thing of all is that she swore that someone was sneaking outside her window in reeboks (why reeboks, I have no idea) but she swore she could hear them, so this one guy kept sneaking across the stage going "reebok reebok reebok". So now, I don't sneak or stalk, I "reebok."

End of stupid story. You had to be there.

EDIT: yup, that was the one.

oh, just a film - bloody revenge tragedies, fops and Queens, good acting, bad acting, Samuel Pepys, two mice

in a nutshell and the King of England in a dress.

oh and Shakespeare.

All round good clean family entertainment.

No, not really, its about restoration era theatre and the men who used to play the womens parts before women were allowed to play them. It looks and feels divine and the lead, whats his name? Was in that film about the kid who goes on tour with the band, Goldie Hawns daughter was in it... god, all the names are running off just as I reach them, well anyway, he's bloody good, and Rupert Everett play Charles II, which is casting perfection.

It a somewhat girly film, but its also a bloody good antidote to all the lovey dovey valentines crap we've had to put up with for the last two or so weeks. I though maybe afterwards we could watch Die Hard or any other film with big explosions and minimal romance.

Yeah, Stage Beauty was pretty much as you described it. Some great performances, some so so. An interesting if completely fictional look at the roles of men and women in theater in that time period. And some very interesting costumes.

And yes, the guy that played the lead, whoever he is, was not terrible to look at. Not at all.

So, it's violence and explosions huh? I just request something without so much blood cuz we all know how easily I get grossed out. Or at least warn me ahead of time so I can close my eyes.

Billy Crudup!

finally remebered his name. Yes, would not pass up the opportunity there for all the ice-cream in heaven.

Actually not so fictional, the theatre's were in the midst of a big shake-up at that time, and some women did make it onto the stage (though not officially I don't think) And unlike a lot of movies Its a fair portrayal of London at the time (i.e. everythings layered with cack) I quite liked the sound track as well, theough Afro-celt Soundsystem wouldn't have been the first people I thought of.

If only the people who did that did Casanova, I could'a had a new favorite movie.
