cleolindaI'm late to the party with this one, but it needs to be linked: An Open Letter to Harry Potter Fangirls.
Awesome icons made from HP in 15 Minutes--seriously, I envy the Photoshop skills on display here.
Desperately behind on the movie news, although this sounds good. I also heard that the ROTK EE has been delayed until December. Boo.
I felt a great deal of despair when I realized that, as sick as I am of the Chronicles of Riddick trailers I've been forced to watch at every single movie I've seen since last July, it is quite clearly a perfect candidate for Fifteen Minutes. However, I am broke refuse to pay to see a movie that has pissed me off for several months now. Therefore, you should not, under any circumstances, download a bootleg, and you should not burn it to a CD, and you should certainly not email me (my email is not in my user info) and ask for my mailing address, which I will certainly not give you as that is bad, bad, illegal, and very bad.
In other news, I still feel achy and feverish and cold. In Alabama. In June. Yeah, I'm sick. I'm desperately behind on a ton of things, and basically the only way I was able to get the Harry Potter Fifteen Minutes done was to drop everything else for about four days. I'm starting to wonder if I should just call it a week and drop everything until Black Ribbon gets finished.

While Fifteen Minutes is a most enjoyable diversion, you should have your priorities, and sadly, "Ribbon" trumps almost all else. I don't think anyone would fault you for that....

Date: 2004-06-09 07:34 am (UTC)Dude, sometimes? They play it TWICE. Like, when I went to see Van Helsing, I think it was, it was the very first trailer they played, and then they played it again almost at the end! It's like "OMG LOOK AT US WE ARE SO COOL LOOK HE PUTS OUT CANDLES WITH HIS BARE HANDS!!!!!1"

Date: 2004-06-09 09:21 am (UTC)Thought the letter was brilliant... and am contemplating posting over at TORn (theonering.net). Even though our movies have all come and gone, there's a lot of cross-fandom peeps there. It might do some good.
As for Chronicles of Riddick... I must admit that I have been looking forward to this for a looong time. Which is ironic because I can't stand Vin Diesel. But I am a shameless fangirl of Karl Urban's and that overtrumps my dislike of his castmates. Also, if Dame Judi Dench deemed the project worth her time... it can't be a total loss. Can it? I've been assured that Dench and Urban are the only things that keep this movie from sinking.
Get better, Cleo!

Just get some rest, don't burn yourself out. We'll fend for ourselves, for now.
I'm cutting back on online time this week, myself.

At least CoR has nifty explosions and Vin Diesel.

They do go away a helluva lot faster with antibiotics. Anyways, I hope you're feeling better soon. Make some chicken noodle soup and add Kentucky bourbon to the mix -- it does wonders for a cold. ;)
