Finishing up before dinner

[cleolinda]

Still "recovering" from burnout a bit. Attended two separate social gatherings last night, believe it or not. Now need to find something to wear for The Lovely Emily's wedding (did I mention she's getting married at the end of May?), which ought to be... interesting, and possibly depressing. The wear-finding, I mean, not the wedding (I approve of The Future Mr. Emily 110%).

I do have some linkspam today, if only because some really good stuff just came out. (Nothing gets my attention like the word "EXCLUSIVE," by the way--because I automatically know which site's version of a news item I ought to go with. Also among my priorities: trailers and images.)

Yes, I saw My Little Pony: The Reign Of Buttercup Sprinkles.

*falls off chair laughing about the Vibrator*

That Princess and the Frog film looks pretty good.

Those recent pictures of Hermione and Harry burying Dobby make me so wtf - was she even there in the books? She was just tortured by Bellatrix!

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Well, Steve Kloves is back on script duty again, so of course she's there. And probably in every other possible scene.

[crumpeteer.livejournal.com]

I now have an image of an oily Heathcliff demanding more Scotch and having wanton flings with milkmaids. Somehow "obsessive smouldering passion with sadistic and masochistic tendencies" doesn't come to mind when I think of CHUCK BASS.

[robinmc.livejournal.com]

I'm just imagining Heathchuck wandering around the moors, mixed drink in hand, ridiculous scarf securely-yet-anachronistically in place.

[coryrain.livejournal.com]

Terry Gilliam to Try Don Quixote Again.
Srsly, just don't do it, this story is cursed for you man, CURSED!

Then again...there would be much Johnny Depp involved...

[lianasvea.livejournal.com]

i thought a homemade twilight sex toy would have happened already... i mean, we've already got the felt renesmee fetus.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

I don't think we can say with any certainty that it hadn't happened already. But I'm pretty sure no one else accosted any of the actors with one. (SIGN IT? For real?)

[door.livejournal.com]

You rule. That is all.

[littlecodfish.livejournal.com]

Poor Littlest Edward, I think he would be traumatized if he heard about the vibrator thing D: But seriously, that's just sick. What you do with yourself privately is your own business, you DO NOT need to share that with everyone else. D: D:

A really cool dress

[lucky-guess.livejournal.com]

http://www.babygirlboutique.com/ruched-middle-jersey-dress-tropical-print.html

I bought this for my friend's wedding. It's flattering to a fault, and comes in many sizes. It's a tad low-cut, but you can wear a cami under or a cardigan over. It's a twirly skirt, and the material feels really good.

Re: A really cool dress

[glenvorian.livejournal.com]

That site looks fantastic!

[elendiari22.livejournal.com]

Okay, Movie 7!Bellatrix has awesome hair. Great job, wig department. The movie is already shaping up to look amazing.

[aranel13.livejournal.com]

Is Rachel Weisz in EVERYTHING lately? Except, you know, the serious that shot her to stardom, aka the Mummy.

[glenvorian.livejournal.com]

SHe reminds me of Gemma Arterton and Emily Blunt - turn around, and they are in something new!

[sabra-n.livejournal.com]

'I Love You Phillip Morris' gets distributor, to open on Valentine's Day

Yay! I've been looking forward to this lovely crack for ages; the opening date is just icing. :)

[mercurywater.livejournal.com]

Same here!

[gornishka.livejournal.com]

Rachel Weisz + Hedy Lamarr and also reteaming with Jackman = not just yeah, but hell yeah.

I'm totally down with the validity of assessing the female roles in Star Trek/nuTrek, but taraljc has a fantastic response here (http://taraljc.livejournal.com/1331874.html) that says what I wanted to say about how and why Uhura and Amanda Grayson are actually well depicted.

[greyduck.livejournal.com]

One: I just lost most of an hour reading that excellent posting and all of the excellent comments. Thanks!

Two: Your... icon. Um. I'm not sure if I'm more amused or more disturbed, but I'm definitely both. *wry grin*

[robinmc.livejournal.com]

I watched the Nine trailer three times today. If that is Fergie singing...well, color me pleasantly surprised. Damn I can't wait for this movie.

Wait, RPattz is playing Rachel Weisz's son? In what universe is she old enough to have birthed him? Dammit, Hollywood...ugh.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Possibly in a young frontier bride way?

... yeah, it's ridiculous.

[laughingacademy.livejournal.com]

"Terry Gilliam to Try Don Quixote Again."

Godspeed, you lunatic.

[greyduck.livejournal.com]

It's almost... Quixotic, isn't it?

*cough*

[tiftnk.livejournal.com]

I think I hate shopping about as much as you do - I had *four* weddings to go to last year, and ended up buying almost everything they had in my size on nordstrom.com - they pay the return shipping, and I didn't have to put on shoes.

[spectralbovine.livejournal.com]

Man, I loved Cliffhanger. It was Die Hard on a mountain! Why the hell would you remake it? Or, uh, reboot it? Who is clammering for this?

[colleenpowell.livejournal.com]

Congrats to The Lovely Emily.

"I SHOULD BE READY"

[dives.livejournal.com]

oh, Michael Emerson. I rarely use this emoticon, but for you:


<3


IDK about this Nine trailer...it just makes me want to go watch 8 1/2 to be honest.

[azalaea.livejournal.com]

Gemma Arterton is an UPGRADE from Natalie Portman. And I like Natalie Portman!

[supersyncspaz7.livejournal.com]

Look, I like Johnny Depp as much as anyone, but Johnny as Frank just could not work at all.

I am so stupid excited about The Princess and the Frog that it hurts. It comes out the day after my birthday!

[snacky]

Oh Narnia YAY! OH BEN BARNES HOW YOU DOIN'?

[amaz0n-princess.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the great LinkSpam!

Also, would it be alright if I swiped your pimpin' icon? I promise to credit you....

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Hee, go for it.

[edda.livejournal.com]

I got down to let's call it "Opie Taylor and the Elder Gods" and my brain collapsed. I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY.

[mrs-bruin.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the linkspam! Because of Twilight, I found you, and because of you and linkspam, I found the internet! It's amazing how much time you (I) can waste on the internet! It's really quite a wonderful place, until you find people that make vibrators out of dolls and take them to conventions for people to sign! I'm just relieved rpattz wasn't there, because the second hand embarassment would have no end.

[rebeccasilver.livejournal.com]

So excited for Deathly Hallows and I love the Bellatrix pics! Also, I was wondering...What's your friending policy on facebook? Is that more personal or is it something like this? I don't want to be all creeptastic on facebook :)

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Oh, I friend everyone on Facebook. I mean, I go through about once a week and do it, so it's not instantaneous, but it's not a "personal" account or anything.

[stephandra.livejournal.com]

So, a good friend recently got her TLE with sunglasses and his accompanying TLB in the mail. I hope this bodes well for the future. And I didn't feel at all weird that OH SECRET LIFE YAY was my first response.

I hope she arrives on a pony.
