Fandoms, Old & New
I got the new Buffy Season 8 graphic novel, No Future for You. Oh, lawdy. I just wanna lay down in the middle of it and roll around, that's how much I love it.
Love, love, love you, Season 8. Want to kiss you on the forehead and read you bedtime stories.
I actually brought it to work. Just so it would be near me in case I have time to read it again. I might spoonfeed it some lunch and then rock it to sleep.
WHAT I'M SAYING IS: I LOVE IT LIKE I GAVE BIRTH TO IT MYSELF.

I went to see Indiana Jones & The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull with Suzie & Dad. My boss had already summed it up for me perfectly:
"It's like Steven Spielberg didn't know if he wanted to make another Indiana Jones, or another E.T., so he just made both."
He wasn't kidding. I didn't like it, I thought it was kinda cheesy and stupid. I kept saying "Really?"
Really, Indiana Jones? You're gonna try to sell me that? I'm not buying. Sorry. I'm all stocked up on aliens and killer ants. I want to see some BIBLICAL SHIT GO DOWN.
And Shia LaBeouf? Hi. You are SOOO cute, and I love those big green eyes. I mean, I'm a fan of yours. If I was 16? Posters of you. All over my room. Probably even on the ceiling. Tiger Beat, yes. But please, PLEASE stop pretending to comb your hair in this movie. We can all plainly see that you have FAR too much hairspray in your hair to get a comb through it.
Kate Blanchett? Call me. And see if you can borrow Indy's whip.

Sex & The City!
I can only say happy things about the movie. It made me laugh, it made me tear up, and it wrapped it all up in a bow just like I wanted. I've already read that they're planning a 2nd movie. I only hope they don't wait too long to make it, cause I really don't want to see Samantha having sex in the nursing home.
Even though, as the oldest - Samantha looked totally hot. Sweet baby Jesus, help me look that good when I'm 50. Samantha makes choices I wouldn't, but when she throws that sushi at Smith and tells him that she is NOT the kind of woman that stays home all day to cook for him - well.. she's just my hero, is all. Damn right, Samantha. We've got better things to do.
Also, Dante was smoking hot, and I will carry the image of him peeling his wetsuit off forever and ever amen. I was so happy with the gratuitous shower scene. Finally! We women get one of those for ourselves!

Angie got me to watch Coupling at her house on Saturday. I'm not much for British humor, so I thought I wouldn't like it. But then this happened:

I love me some Coupling, but then again I love British Comedy. You should soooo check out Little Britain.
O and don't even get me started on Indiana Jones. I too sat there going REALLY? SERIOUSLY? WHAT? NOOOOOO! and napped a few times in between.
Yeah? Little Britain? Okay, I'll tell Angie. She's the British-to-Cookie filter.
I know!! All I said during Indiana was "Really???" and "Unlikely."
I liked Indiana Jones. All the IJ movies were just silly adventures with an exceptional theme, I didn't think the ET at the end was all that far-fetched for an Indy movie. I kind of liked the tie-in, that similar creatures had visited earth before. The ants were crawly, icky, and every bit as outlandish as the sword fight- but I thought that's what made them fun. Of course, I'm easily amused.
Coupling is a *great* show. The Young Ones is another great British comedy. It's a bit older but definitely good for a laugh if you're in the mood for stupid.

I just thought IJ was stupid, but that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy parts of it. I definitely don't think it was as good as the first and the third, though.
I watched that clip. That's Fred from Drop Dead Fred! I KNOW THAT GUY!
Oh yeah! I'd forgotten he was in that!!
