I was warned.

My god does this movie have problems.

Confusingly, several chunks of this movie are quite good.

The fight scenes are especially good. They’re filmed in a new way I have not seen before. I hope to see more fight scenes filmed like that. It was almost like a go-pro but without inducing vertigo in me.

Eggsy was great. Petition to have him in ( Read more... )

How much I enjoy ballads, particularly murder ballads.

This started back in high school and every time I think they can’t lure me back I spend hours with a single ballad on a loop I kid you not.

I suspect it comes of me going to summer camps as a child and memorizing so many camp songs. I have quite the memory for songs (and Shakespearean verse.) I ( Read more... )

Watched on Netflix, while on skype with my boyfriend, who is 3,000 miles away.

Here's the notes I took as we watched:

Got into Weregeek in high school. I think it was in the wake of ending my archive binge of Narbonic, and browsing tvtropes for recommendations. I followed Weregeek loyally for years. Fell behind for a month or so and then caught up again in early 2014.

Then that “reveal” happened.

I’m still disappointed about that. Like, seriously, whaaaa? Years ( Read more... )

I will not be going out to do anything 4th of July related because for some reason, my family has a curse with the 4th of July. If we try to do things on the 4th of July, it does not end well. Highlights include: our car breaking down and stranding us well past midnight trying to get back and forth with the tow truck and a replacement car, fighting ( Read more... )

Slept in way too late: whoops.

Ate an actual breakfast at a decent hour: good.

Found story ideas from five years ago: holy shit this is actually great I can use this for a tv script!

About to leave on another cross-country road trip! So excited! Been waiting for this ever since I got back from the last one in December.

I'll post pictures when I can. Internet usage will be sporadic for the next week or so.

So, about two weeks ago, I didn’t watch the latest episode of Game of Thrones. I was in LA, sleeping on a friend’s air mattress, trying to find a place to live. I watched some other tv, wrote some fanfics, and worried and stressed about apartments and paperwork. I read books on the plane. And I thought “I can catch up on this episode later.”

Then ( Read more... )

I’m doing ANOTHER ROAD TRIP!

This one’s a doozy, gonna be very long, VERY long days driving. My mommy is going with me this time, we’re going from New England to Yellowstone, down to the Grand Canyon, and then quickly through the Vegas strip just to see it, and then to LA, which will be my new home. (Those are places I missed on my last trip out, ( Read more... )
