The story of a bored individual...

Have a lot of pictures I've been wanting to post. Mostly of the areas where I live in Norway, London and even Poland. These pictures have been taken from mid january up until now, so there are quite a few. So if you want to know a little more about where I live, follow the cuts. :D

Hope that was informative and not to dull. Now, time for bed. Have classes tomorrow, and we're filming some pick ups afterwards.

 ( SERENITY review )

 

In short, everybody must go and see this movie, and make up their own mind. I’m going again soon, and will then hopefully be able to write a better review.

 

Go HERE for great interviews with the cast! :D (spoiler free)

The little guided tour of Portobello market went well yesterday. No problems. Was nice meeting her again actually, getting some news from the former home.

Went to the thearte again yesterday to see A Life in the Thearte. I enjoyed myself more this time, had much better seats, and didn't pay through the nose for it either. :) This time we stayed around after the show to get a glimpse of the stars, maybe even get an autograph. Both Sol and I scored an autograph from Joshua Jackson, here's a low quality pic: ( autograph )

Sadly my camera decided to die on me, don't know if the pictures I have taken can be saved, but will hand them in and let the pros. take a looks. Sol took a few pictures so I can copy pics from her. Patrick Stewart didn't come out the same way as Joshua, but maybe I'll catch him another time.

Next X-Man on the list is Alan Cumming at the Collectormania in April/May, will hopefully be able to get his autograph. :) Still not sure about Sean Astin, as I've already got a signed copy of his book, and those autographs ain't exactly cheap.

 

Saw Constantine today. I liked it, I must say. It's not the deepest movie I've seen, but it now ranks as a steady number 2 to the X-Men films on my comic-book-movie-list, and might be the first other comic-book-movie I actually buy on DVD. I liked the visuals, and it was a role that fit Keanu Reeves with his limited facial expressions. It's been called a mix between The Matrix and The Exorcist, which is kind of weird as I'm not a huge fan of either of them. I'm not really able to write a full-blown review of it right now, but what I will say is that I liked it.

Also got a kick out of the Sin City teaser trailer being shown before the film. The wait is just far to loooooong. *sigh*

Yesterday I was at the Collectormania 5. It was great, even though I at one point thought I wouldn't make it.
The first obstacle was getting up in the morning, I was very tired, but I got out of bed, and got some food. Then it was the task of getting my hair to look somewhat normal, when my mom rang. It was really nice talking to her, as always, had a little chat with dad too.

When I finally got on my way there were a few delays in traffic, so I got to the train station a little later than I though I would. Thought I have come this far so I bought my tickets and sat down to wait for the train to Milton Keyes. There were some delays and I didn't make it to CM until about 13:30. The first thing I did was run around like crazy getting que tickets. I couldn't believe there were any left but I got tickets for Peter Mayhew, Ray Park and Craig Parker without any hassle. I had a real hard time finding Robert Englund's booth tho, must have walked past it at least four times because I got bad directions, but I found it eventually and got a ticket.

After I'd gotten all the tickets the thought of food struck my mind, I hadn't eaten since 09:00, and was getting really hungry. Went to the closest diner and had a look at the menu, they didn't have anything to my liking. I stood on the top for a while, saw Clint Howard. Decided to find my camera to take a picture, but as I hit the button nothing happened. The battery had died, so I had to put food on hold and had to go hunting for a battery. Finally found one, spent a little over 10 pounds on it, but I was just happy to have it working again. :)
Then I could finally get some food, so I walked a lot in the search for a place without too many people, and food I would eat. Ended up in Burger King in some remote location of the mall. Food was good. When I finished up it was about 15:30 and I got back to where the signings were and saw that Peter Mayhew had an open que.

( My meeting with Chewbacca. )

Afterwards I took a breather, even though I'd been sitting when I ate I didn't feel like I had done anything but run around most of the day. I usually sit still most of the day, so I was rather tired. I sent some text messages with Isen, she was at home sunbathing, just taking it easy. :) I decided to have a look in the stalls so I wouldn't fall asleep just sitting around, passed the board with the que-numbers and discovered that they had passed my number in Ray's que, and that Craig's had become an open que. I hurried over to Craig because I could get in to meet Ray anyway. I got over to Craig's que, and prepared to meet Haldir.

( My meeting with Haldir. )

I hurried over to Ray Park's booth, and got in his que, which had also become an ope que while I'd been over at Craig.

( My meeting with Toad. )

Was finished at about 16:45, sat down and waited to meet Robert Englund. Sadly it turned out that the mall was closing, and that Robert wouldn't be meeting anyone else. That was also something Isen wanted, but I hope she's happy I got the other two. Am happy I got to meet Craig because of her tho. :) So thank you very much for that Isen! :)
