In other news, I got out of bed at 1 pm (unfortunatly, not unusual - my body seems to think its somewhere in the Atlantic, time-zone wise), cleaned the apartment (mopping the floor without a mop was interesting), got groceries (foooooooood) and re-watched Voyage of the Damned (where David Tennant is gorgeous - and lanky - in a rumpled tux and, yes, the inevitable Chucks). Gods that happy couple in VotD makes me so frelling happy. That's what I want, right there.

Watching Shaun of the Dead last night, I realized that Shaun's mum, Barbara, was Penelope Wilton. Yes, that's right, Dr Who's Harriet Jones, Prime Minister. The fandoms, they bleed together!

ETA: Whilst comment-chatting with pythfic, she responded to my doubts as to Noah Bennet's omniscience with, "Also, c'mon. He's Noah fucking Bennet. He has ways of finding this out." To which I innocently replied that it "ought to be on a pin or flag or somethin'." So she says the magic word: icon.

It's her fault. Really, it is.

cleolinda's Cloverfield in Fifteen Minutes is up, also on m15m. I still do not feel the need to watch this. (The fact that the two movies with "Zomg! Spiffy camera effects and movement!" - The Blairwitch Project and Children of Men - that I've ever watched were done so forcefully from the first row may have something to do with this.) Also, her Heath Ledger linkspam, including a quote from the NewYorkTimes which reflects my own sentiments:

The dismaying sense of loss and waste at Mr. Ledger’s death at 28 comes not only because he was so young, but also because his talent was large and as yet largely unmapped.... Mr. Ledger’s work will outlast the frenzy. But there should have been more. Instead of being preserved as a young star eclipsed in his prime, he should have had time to outgrow his early promise and become the strange, surprising, era-defining actor he always had the potential to be.
It's like with the Weeping Angels of Dr Who: the loss of all that potential is what really hits.

The first time I ever saw Blair Witch was on my own, in the dark. It scared the crap out of me (I think it was the psychological aspect that did the trick). The camera didn't give me motion sickness because I was luckily watching it on a pretty small television in my basement...

But since my love of scary movies run eternal, I plan on giving Cloverfield a try ;) I'll post a review when that happens!

I've been so worried about the hand-held camera action that I keep on forgetting it's a "scary movie". Though from what I've read it's more of a natural disaster thing.

I think I might cave and watch it, though. It premiered here yesterday...
