In movies:
Does it make me a horrible person if I cried more during I Love You Phillip Morris than I did while watching A Single Man? No, that would be silly. But it still feels slightly wrong.
I think it's because you knew what was going to happen in ASM. That doesn't make it any less depressing however. Jim and George were together 16 years. Jim dies in a fucking car accident that also kills at least one of their dogs and possibly the other one. George can't even go to his fucking funeral because it's 'only for family.' Shit, nobody would have even told him Jim had died if Jim's cousin hadn't shown some kind of humanity and called him. I didn't want to see George kill himself if only because I knew Jim wouldn't have wanted him to, but I knew it couldn't (and maybe shouldn't) have a happy ending. Beautifully sad movie and Colin Firth was excellent.
I Love You Phillip Morris still... bothers me. But in a good way I guess. I'm not quite sure how I feel about it. I laughed, I cried, I got really involved in the love story between Phillip and Steven. It left me feeling depressed and hopeful at the same time. This movie needs to be out in theatres already! It's really fucked up that they keep pushing back the release date. The movie's site where you can watch the trailer (and other videos) - http://www.phillipmorristhemovie.com/
Anyhoo, I recommend both movies.Especially I Love You Phillip Morris?
In television:
Doctor Who just keeps getting better and better!
There's just so much I'm loving about DW that I can't quite get my thoughts together. I love Matt Smith's version of the Doctor. He's weird, crazy, and I love how he can freak out so easily but still work out a solution (even if it's not the best one). I love how much he cares for Amy. I love how touchy he is - I am a total sucker for forehead touches (and kisses) and it seems to be a THING with the two of them so I am ecstatic about that. I love the Weeping Angels being creepy as fuck. Oh, GOD! To finally see them MOVE. The forest in the ship was creepy and brilliant. I love the crack in the universe. I love that there are already some very interesting theories going around, especially regarding that one scene. I trust in Moffat and team enough to think that it wasn't just a mistake on their part. Breadcrumbs.

The US needs to get caught up so I can use more spoilery icons!!
Also, I wish I wasn't saving money for buying things when I'm in Europe (also bills, but whatever) because I really want this and this. Among other things. Is there also an Amy action figure out there? Because I can't have an Eleven without an Amy. Which reminds me, I know where my Kirk and Spock are, but I seem to have lost track of Jack and Daniel...
In Real Life:
Nothing much. Working. Got to hang out with two of my friends last week. Trying not to think about my upcoming trip too much. I'm already having trouble sleeping and part of that is because of my anxiety over flying and being so far away from home.

Regarding things I want to buy lately (money would be also welcomed by the universe or a distant aunt)

I Love You Phillip Morris was so camp at points I couldn't believe it, but I loved it! I instantly went online to find out more about Steven. Very interesting and fun.

Date: 2010-05-05 06:35 am (UTC)I didn't mind the last scene so much :) While I'm A-OK with them being the BFFs they already are, I think this might be the first Doctor/Companion combo that I actually ship as well. But I'd still rather have forehead!kisses any day.
