random observation

So I’ve been known to buy movies out of the cheap bin at Walmart and then forget to put them away for a while, which means today I finally realized that the last two movies I bought are kind of ironic.

-Hidden Figures
-Gone with the Wind

I sort of feel like this range of interests says a lot about how little I care about messaging in my entertainment.

The Hunger Games book/movie thoughts

Okay, now I’ve listened to The Hunger Games on audiobook and started Catching Fire (a bit over two disks in), and seen THG movie. So I might as well post about my thoughts.

Fandom, Characters/Ship: Iron Man movies, Tony/Pepper (Tony POV)

Ever since I finally got around to watching IM2, I've been in the mood to make a Tony/Pepper vid, so this is the result. Don't know if or when I'll make more, but I had to do something with it.

Some fandom plus NaNo

Okay so I realize I never really did a reaction post to the DW s5 finale, in fact I guess I didn't do anything for it. But the reason for all thing is...
DW s5 finale talk...briefly )

I also finally had the chance to watch Iron Man 2 last night and here's my main thoughts...
Spoilers even though I know most people interested have probably already seen it )

And NaNo update.

Woot

Baseball season starts tomorrow, YAY. I'm really looking forward to having baseball to watch again. So there will probably be more posts by me on the subject soon enough.

Also, I woke up this morning with a craving to watch 'Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.' I haven't watched that movie in ages so I can only conclude this came about because I refused to watch Doctor Who and am craving a replacement time traveling in a phone booth story. Unfortunately I can't find my copy of it and even if I could it's VHS so I'll have to find some other means to view it.

However, it looks like reaction on f-list to the new DW ep has been generally positive so I might watch it, but still probably not right away.

baseball yet?

They've started playing evening/night ball at the softball field near my house. As a kid that always used to annoy me because they played until after my bedtime and the lights and noise kept me up. Now it at most means I need to keep the music going if I'm not watching something at night.

And that I WANT BASEBALL. I only miss the Olympics being on because now I'm in a lull between sports in the evenings. We're still a bit under three weeks from the season though. I want to watch my boys again.

Also I haven't said anything about the last couple movies I've seen:
Alice in Wonderland and Shutter Island )

Slumdog Millionaire

So I went and saw Slumdog Millionaire yesterday and I can say I can see why it won Best Picture this year. It was a wonderful story and really well done. Of the three Best Picture nominees I've had the chance to see now it was the best done (and I say that as someone who also adored Benjamin Button although maybe not quite in a Best Picture way).

So if you haven't had a chance to see it yet I would recommend it.

So went to see 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' last night and it was pretty good, but really this post is about how it relates to Doctor Who...obviously.

Narnia vid

Title: God Says Nothing Back
Song: God Says Nothing Back
Artist: The Wallflowers
Details: 4:45 long, wmv file, 33.6 MB
Made By: jedi_of_urth
Fandom, Characters/Ship, spoilers: Chronicles of Narnia, 'Prince Caspian,' Peter and Susan focus, and how they may be getting to old for Narnia.
Located at: MediaFire

Well besides WMM throwing a hissy fit I quite like this one. It maybe has a little foreshadowing of the Susan turn in The Last Battle if you know about it, but it's mainly about how Susan and Peter react to being back in Narnia, older and facing a changed Narnia. In the end they're told they can't return because they're too grown up now, and maybe they are.

Hope folks enjoy it, and as always comments/feedback always welcome.
