OH SHIT I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THE SAGS STUPID TITANIC.


ETA: Well, not stupid Titanic--I actually got some good work done on the first six pages, and the show looks really boring. I just hate looking up in the middle of something and realizing that I missed something else.

And yay Cate!


ETA 2: You know, maybe I'm depressed because I'm having to watch FREAKIN' TITANIC on an endless loop. And I don't mean that in a snarky way--in all seriousness, I am listening to people wail and scream and pray and die for two hours, over and over and over again. I have got to get through this so I can go back to laughing my ass off at Star Wars.

I agree with the "stupid titanic" comment.

But thats cos I have something against Leonardo DiCaprio

[law-witch.livejournal.com]

WHOA - hugs you tight - forgot it was tonite!!!!!!!!!!

[gracefallson-me.livejournal.com]

you really haven't missed anything. but its been ok.

[decor-noctis.livejournal.com]

who doesn't?

[museofswearing.livejournal.com]

Wait, did CateKate win? *crosses fingers*

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Did! (http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=494&ncid=762&e=1&u=/ap/20050206/ap_en_tv/film_sag_awards)

[spectralbovine.livejournal.com]

I don't!

Wait, was that rhetorical?

[museofswearing.livejournal.com]

ROCK ON. I need a CateKate icon, I talk about her often enough...

[luna-k.livejournal.com]

Heeeeeee. I just posted, "I wonder if Cleo is going to do a SAG recap?"

::smacks self::

All in all, this was one of my favorite award shows lately. Mostly, because it was shorter than others. ;)

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Amen. That's why I was so pissed that I forgot about it--I could have tossed off a two-hour recap no problem, and here I had to go get sucked into people screaming and flailing and drowning for two hours.

[luna-k.livejournal.com]

Hey, it's being replayed on TNT right now! ;)

No, for real... Titantic baby. Stick with that. It's gonna be the first chapter I turn to when I buy the book.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Heh. Well, if my lineup is correct, it should be chapter four. : )

[blackdiamants.livejournal.com]

Yeah that would be cause for emo-ness.

[crumpeteer.livejournal.com]

You know, I've only been able to slog through Titanic once, and that was strictly for Ioan. I'm not sure I could make myself do it again.

[myriad69.livejournal.com]

I have no idea how you can bear to sit through Titanic over and over. Horrid film.

And here's a wee something that should make you grin: The Hopkins Green Frog Mystery might have been solved, but there is still one mystery that remains... (http://www.livejournal.com/users/circe_tigana/667550.html)

::loves on you for pointing that out::

Seriously, hanging out in Cleo's LJ is like being at a really nifty night club. You meet the coolest people, there's no cover charge, and it's open 24-7.

[barrelgoddess.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'd wager that that's at least partly behind the depression. Lord knows it'd have that effect on me if I watched it on loop. @.x

[myriad69.livejournal.com]

And you get to bask. I love the basking.

*worships Cleo from afar, omg*

[edda.livejournal.com]

I've never seen that damn movie and I never will, and I salute your ability to survive it.

[vladimirsever.livejournal.com]

YAY CATE!

Aww, Cleo!

[lizzyrose89.livejournal.com]

Just let the Force guide you, and you'll make it through!

[outinthestorm.livejournal.com]

If you get sick of watching Titanic, you can always watch this:

http://www.angryalien.com/0604/titanicbunnies.html

It kinda has the best bits.... *grin*

[chopper8825.livejournal.com]

Titanic is a really long film too, isn't it? Plus, Leo DiCaprio's acting is like a drawn out fart - I really, really don't like him.

However...Star Wars! LOVE IT! Can't wait for the m15m - I can imagine some massive digs at Yoda and Obi-Wan coming up.

Yuffie xXx

[spherissa.livejournal.com]

i don't either though it depends what role he's in

[misshallelujah.livejournal.com]

You know, maybe I'm depressed because I'm having to watch FREAKIN' TITANIC on an endless loop.

Good point, considering that Titanic was once touted on a TV ad here as the movie for which you have to bring a dozen boxes of tissue into the theater. Not happy viewing material. *hugs*

[yarha.livejournal.com]

You could, oh, I dunno, mute the volume. I'm sure they're not sayin' much that's interestin', anyway. :p

All things considered, I'd suggest chocolate. ;)

Yarha, OMGAAAAHCRUNCH*Dies*

[ladyelaine.livejournal.com]

*perk*

Star Wars?!

SW fan (short for fanatic), right here!

[http://users.livejournal.com/lorien__/]

i feel so sorry for you...
they aired titanic here yesterday... and i did my best to try and watch it and i couldn't.. honnest to god.. it was just tooo eeccccchhh... so i can't imagine what it's like to watch it over and over again...

hope you get through it fast...
how many movies do you have to finish? and what's the new deadline?

L.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Honestly? I've had the sound muted for days now. I have the subtitles on, and I've been listening to whatever music I wanted on my headphones. I just keep having to turn around to the TV and skip back to whatever scene I now have to watch five times to figure out what I want to say.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Yeah, "Attack of the Clones" is going in the book. : )

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

I still have more than half to go, and the new deadline isn't a fixed date--I basically just said, "Hey, let me turn in one a week." And now I"m behind again. Fnarrrr.

[http://users.livejournal.com/lorien__/]

ouch...
reason i asked was... i suddenly remembered that there are a lot of two-hour and longer movies in the list...

well... we're all here to cheer you on... ;)
*grabs pompoms*
you can do it... yes you can... :p

*hugsies*

L.
feeling silly...

Random comment:

I've decided that your alter ego Cleolinda Jones is the daughter of Indiana Jones and Princess Leia.

Carry on.

[particle-person.livejournal.com]

Clio is the Muse of History in Greek mythology. There may be some relation.

[ayn-rand-fan-13.livejournal.com]

I'm so sorry you have to watch it so much. I personally liked Titanic, but I sob the entire second half. You know what's funnier than Star Wars? Star Trek.

[katiekate11.livejournal.com]

love the icon...

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Interesting... why Leia?

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Oooo, that's really cool.

[spectralbovine.livejournal.com]

She was the first Big Female Fictional Character that sprung to mind, since there were no name restrictions. And it kind of fit, cause of the whole Han Solo/Harrison Ford thing, and your doing a SW movie, and "Leia" kind of has the same sound as "Cleo." There might be a better option out there, but Indy is totally the father.

It was either those two, or Tom Jones and Jane Eyre.

[particle-person.livejournal.com]

Honestly, knowing you, I thought 'Cleolinda' was a play on 'Clio.' :)

Where did 'Cleolinda' come from then?

Sending a hug ...

[(Anonymous)]

Just wanted to send you a virtual hug. I can see you have been down the last couple of days. Wanted to tell you that you are funny and touching and brilliant. (... and as much as my POTO obsession is in full bloom, usually I check your journal first because you make me laugh. You rule over the hotness of GB - how is that for props?) You will be very sucessful writer and you can count on me being one of the first in line to buy your book.

And BTW, I am 37 and Valentine's Day always sucked ... until this year. Good stuff can happen at the oddest times. Cheers, dear.

Awww, thank you so much. : )

[ponygirl118.livejournal.com]

::hugs Cleo::
I was in 1st grade when Titanic came out, & I remember all of my classmates talking about it and me not having a clue...
& yay for SAG!!
Well, my friends a member, so I guess I'm biased. Ah, well.
BTW, love the recaps. I plan to buy the book when it comes out.
::hugs again::

Sorry Lauren, guess I was myth-informed. My mythtake.

[dietcokebreak.livejournal.com]

I forgot that they were on too. ::disappointing::

On the upside, I went to see Being Julia and it was fabulous. :) I hope that Annette Benning takes Oscar!

[decor-noctis.livejournal.com]

it's more him as a person than as n actor. I mean, I think he's brilliant in What's Eating Gilbert Grape? and even in Romeo and Juliet but...there's something I don't like.

[illmantrim.livejournal.com]

sends in a wee huggg

[spherissa.livejournal.com]

I don't know that much about him asa person, and I don't know, I have issues believing what I read about famous people, or at least believing it too much, I think we have a tendency to mythologise them and along with mythologising them we highlight and ignore certain aspects of their characters. Perhaps not us as individuals per se but certainly in the information given.

But redardlee, I don't know enough about him, as a person, to hazard an opinion.
