Today has been fun. Had a meeting with my bank that was utterly pointless (It consisted of "which current account is best for me?" "the one you have" "oh")Went out to lunch with my nan. She bought me a microwave. Found potential doctors and dentists in Cambridge. And later I get to fill in forms. Would be horrifically grown up of me if I hadn't ( Read more... )

• Day 12 - A movie that you hate

Another toughie (anyone get the feeling I'll be saying that a lot?). Ok, so, yeah, so there are a lot of films that I complain about (Sunshine (2007) being one of them) but to be perfectly honest, I like trashing bad science in films so it's not one of those. I could pick something obvious like Twilight (2008) or ( Read more... )

Bugger. Behind schedule again. Well, if my parents will turn off the internet when they go to bed. But no more! I have the house to myself now until I move out as they left for the airport about an hour ago. And really, shit, cos that means I officially no longer live with my family. Also why does the house always seem quieter when everyone has ( Read more... )

So, I'm finally back on schedule posting for day 10.

• Day 10 - Favourite classic movie

I'm not sure I really watch "classic" movies in the traditional sense of the word, so I'm going to cheat a little with the definition of classic. Singin' in the Rain (1952) I guess counts, but I always forget how long the dream sequence is and get restless. Then ( Read more... )

• Day 08 - A movie that you’ve seen countless times

First off, it is currently about midnight, meaning I’ve spent the best part of the last four and a half hours down the pub, so this might not be the most coherent post ever.
Secondly, my parents have gone to bed so I no longer have internet access and thus will be posting this tomorrow morning. Or ( Read more... )

Day 07 - The most surprising plot twist or ending

This is a difficult one. I just can't think of many films where I can say I've been surprised by a plot twist or ending. TV shows, yeah, plenty, but not films.
I guess The Notebook (2004) although I'm not sure "surprising" is quite the right word. More like "heartbreaking".

So, hah, yes, so I am going ( Read more... )

• Day 06 - Favourite made for TV movie

This one was difficult because "made for TV movie" conjures up an image of those Lifetime movies where children go missing and die horribly of cancer. Sometimes there are horses. So yeah... Then I realised that what are labelled in my head as "one off feature length dramas" really probably count as made of TV ( Read more... )

Day 05 - Favourite love story in a movie
As I am rather a fan of rom coms this was rather a tough choice, but eventually I narrowed it down. I am a big romantic at heart, so I like a lot of romances that I probably shouldn't. In fact, I realise as I look back that the reason I liked a lot of films when I was a kid was for the romance. So anyway, ( Read more... )

Oops. Forgot to post yesterday. Ah well, I suppose these two are probably the best days to cover together.
