This is actually Survivor in this ad. Starbucks is the winner with this one and the other ad with the woman at her office. If anyone can find the other one for me, link it?

This is the greatest thing ever.

And as a note, a lovely note - I am a total dork. It is a rare person who can make me all girly and swoony but it's been managed. Thanks all of you. It's good to remember that I'm loved.

And because it doesn't take too much time... and I hate the training I'm writing...

I slept in this morning. Probably not the best choice but it made it so I got to ride in this morning with priest which was nice. We talked about a lot of things.

I've been thinking because of mistergone's meme yesterday. He asked people to list the five movies they would show someone as a 'get to know you' sort of thing. That was rought and I think I'm going to have to change the answers I gave him. One of them is Sabrina without a doubt. Lost in Translation should probably go in there some where.

Anyway, I've been thinking about what books I would use to explain to people who I am. I've been thinking about this for like a week now after I realized that my favorite book could tell people a /lot/ about me. If they knew what to look for. I know what to look for because I'm me... I don't know what anyone else would get out of it. My list so far is...

The Lions of Al-Rassan - Guy Gavriel Kay
Remembrance - Jude Deveraux
Some graphic novel here. Not sure which one yet.
Arrow's Flight - Mercedes Lackey (Maybe. I'm still wavery on this one.)

.... and I don't have a fifth yet. I need to think about it more.

I do this with songs from time to time but books are harder, I think.

Now I have gmail too!

So, you know, send me e-mail there, all of you.

You really shouldn't have to ask what the address is. Hotmail.... Lj... It's all me. Except when its my sister. But that's rare.

Current Mood: awake

This makes me very sad.

Good Bye, Ray Charles. Good bye and God Speed.

I need to watch the Blues Brothers this evening.

Current Mood: crushed

I'm here. Very tired and a day full of meetings. I think... I think it is time for lunch now. Mmmmm. Yes.

I filled this out again on a few people's journals in the past few days. It's a repeat for some of you.

It will be playing at the Cinerama. Tickets aren't on sale yet but I will be going to see it at the Cinerama. Just giving advance notice. That's where I'll be June 30th.

Video Business reports that New Line Home Entertainment will release the extended edition DVD of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King in December. The trade adds that the extended edition took longer to produce because cast members, now filming new projects, had to be rounded up from all over to complete their commentaries.

NY Daily News featured an article on the Batmobile at New York's Licensing 2004. "It has to get up to 220 mph to get airborne, but then it can jump 20, 30, maybe 40 feet," said Charles Roven, producer of the upcoming Batman movie. *shiver*
Man. That script. I know what is going to happen but that just makes it better for me in this case. The anticipation of the coolness might just give me a heart attack, though.

Good cartoon news - Gennedy Tartakovsky has gotten permission for more episodes of Clone Wars. There will be 5 12 minute episodes coming in March of 2005.

The news is that Henry Cavill, Jared Padalecki and Jason Behr are all testing for Superman this week. Mostly unknown guys. A good choice, I think.

Here is a fascinating picture of Marvel's upcoming movie slate. Spidey 3 - May 4, 2007. 2005 - Elektra, Fantastic 4 and Iron Man. 2006 - X-men 3, Namor and Ghost Rider.

Viggo Mortensen will reunite with his "Lord of the Rings" studio New Line to topline A History of Violence for director David Cronenberg.

Darren Aronofsky's The Fountain will start filming on November 1 in Montreal. It will be staring Hugh Jackman. There were lots and lots of people attached to that role over the past year. Glad they're moving forward with it. It's a story about immortality and that death is something to be embraced and not feared.

Adding to the sequels that shouldn't be: You Got Served 2.

There are good reviews of Dodgeball and I, Robot coming in. (I'm kind of surprised by the later. It really just looks like a Wil Smith movie. Not that I have problems with that, it just doesn't look like it is an adaptation that will make people happy.)

There is a positive review of the Serenity script. It's got very minor spoilers in it. Not like the one I read the other day. Damn you Joss!

Current Mood: busy

I am just so tired this morning. It was like the shower I took washed away all of my energy too. I was awake and motivated before that... Even though something just felt off this morning no matter what. When I get home I need to Drano the shower, though. It still drains way way slow.

Arg.

I watched a lot of Xena last night. I really enjoy that show. It's one of my popcorn things.

I need a nap. But I also have to get things done. Wheee.

I opened up my Evanescence cd case to find my Return of the King soundtrack. That was odd. I wonder where the cd went. *yawn*

Nap time?

Current Mood: sleepy

The sharply dressed business woman in front of my on the bus this morning was reading Spike and Angel slash she'd printed out from somewhere. That was kind of funny.

People disappear sometimes. You always have to wonder who is doing it on purpose adn who just hasn't realized they've been out of touch.

Wow. Today is just the day for good movie things.

I've started reading the Batman script. I couldn't help myself. I've found myself absolutely amazed by it. I've stopped reading for the time being but I have no doubts that if he can transfer this onto the screen it will be the greatest comic book movie ever.

That said, here is a review of Spider-man 2. There are spoilers in here. It's going to rock my little world until I can't move. I know it will.

Joss Whedon says Serenity is coming out April 22, 2005. The post from him I read.... Well, I didn't know there was a spoiler in it. It's... It's a pretty big spoiler. Espcially for Mr. I don't give out spoilers Whedon. He's got to be yanking chains. Doesn't he?

Pictures are here and herefor the Farscape mini-series. Potentially spoilery. For those who look, who the heck is the spikey-hair girl?

Frances McDormand will co-star with Charlize Theron in Paramount Pictures' big-screen live-action adaptation of the futuristic MTV toon series Aeon Flux. Variety says McDormand will portray the Handler in the film, produced by MTV Films along with Valhalla Productions, in association with Lakeshore Entertainment. Filming is slated to begin in August in Berlin for a 2005 release.

Lots of sequels that shouldn't be filmed are starting filming in the next few months. We're talking like... Underworld. So. Yeah. Bleh. X-Files 2 is as well. No idea how I feel about that anymore.

Warner Bros. has announced a Krypto The Supderdog animated series to join Cartoon Network's lineup in spring 2005. Warner also announced a total of 52 episodes of Teen Titans will air on Cartoon Network and Kids' WB! through 2005, with Season 3 set to launch in mid-September.

Some time this morning... Almost afternoon.

So, Tampa Bay won the cup. Go Dave! That's what I have to say about that.

bastardchimp sent me a link to the entire script of the new Batman movie. It is sitting in another window right now. It's taunting me to read it. I can hear it calling me. Ooooooh. You're so evil. SO EVIL.

I want to read it but I shouldn't. Want to read it...

The landlord called Kris' cellphone this morning to mention that he and the bank are doing a walk through because they're refinancing the house. He called at 8 this morning. They're doing the walk through at noon-ish. No one will be home, I really don't think. I have no idea what to even think about that entire idea. Augh.

My new computer here at work is super, super sweet. Jose is the man.

What else....? Ummmm. I don't know. Maybe I'll have something else later. Right now I'm a little too scattered to have anything else in mind.

Current Mood: crazy

I don't feel all that hot. I have a cold. It is distinctly displeasing to me. I have to train temps today. I'm sure that it will be interesting to be sneezing all day while trying to teach people how to do things. There is a semi-rant in me about role-playing but it's mostly the same old one. I've never been a fan of happy, happy RP. I mean, I don't want all dark and gloomy all the time because it's wearing and grating and just out and out hard on people... but happy happy, no consequences RP is sugary and cloying.

Anyway.... I have to go get doing things. Augh. Busy, busy.

Jose is the man. He's hooking me up here at work. Sweet.

Current Mood: sick

God Speed, Mr. Reagan.
