The story of a bored individual...

You've all probably noticed that I'm using my Journal to post some X-men news as well as my regular posts. This is just to make X-Men website
better. I will consider making a new journal for this later, but right now I can't be bothered.

Sniper470 can be downloaded! It's the short film that Billy Boyd was in. I've just downloaded it, and will watch it after wards.

Quiet day today. Camelia left a 7 a.m. to go to an audition for a school she wants to attend next year. I'm crossing my fingers for her. I really hope she gets in because she really wants it. But I must admit that part of me wants her to get in so I won't be alon next year. Feel kind of selfish.
Ok, I'm hoping she gets the result she wants out of this audition, because that's the most important thing! :)

I've gotten sick. Just a sore throat and cloudy head so far, and that I can live with. It's when my nose gets clogged up it gets really bad, but I'm not gonna worry about that before it happens. Am downing "soothers", some blackcurrant sweets for my throat and drinking tea, so I'm ok. :) No worries.

The guy from my production group called me at least 6 times yesterday. I didn't pick the phone, I was in no mood to talk with him. And if it was important the guy could have sent me a message. If he asks me on Wednesday why I didn't pick up the phone I'll just say that I either lost it or was never in the room when he called, and didn't have money to call him back.

Saw Britney Spears on "V Graham Norton" yesterday, not because I wanted to, but because Camelia just had to see it. Geez, Britney is a total idiot, the more she spoke the more stupid she sounded. I didn't want to say anything, but finally I did, and Camelia got all defensive about it. She tried to attack one of my old heroes, but then I just said: "You can say what you want about them I don't care. That doesn't help the fact that Britney is a moron." I let it drop after that, coz Camelia obviously couldn't see past the "Britney is a great dancer" thing. I just got a little annoyed for some reason... I don't know...

Saw "Matrix: Revolutions" yesterday, that was quite a sucky movie. The only thing I found a little enjoyable was the final fight between Mr. Smith and Neo. I also think that if I hadn't known who Hugo Weaving was I wouldn't have found that such fun either. It's just the way he talks in that movie... it's kind of weird. I think it's kind of sad that this was supposed to be the concluding film, when I was left sitting with a bunch of questions I didn't get answers to. The first movie was onto something but the last two really blew it. I don't really know if i liked this one less than "Reloaded", but it sure as hell wasn't better.
The fact of the matter is that I only went because I had promised Camelia and that I knew that they were going to show "The Return of the King" trailer before the movie. The trailer for "ROTK" broke my heart, I so wanted to run back here and watch all the trailers and look at all the pictures. I've been downloading things without looking at them, so I can know as little as possible before the movie. "Two Towers" got a little ruined for me because of all the spoilers and stuff I saw and read beforehand. I have read the books, but I don't know how it will play out in the movie. So I'm trying to get the same kind of surprised feeling that I got from "FOTR". Am really looking forward to it now, next week we'll hopefully have tickets for the premiere in Leicester Square. :) 32 days to go! ;)

Was at the cinema yesterday with Lily. We saw "The Matrix: Reloaded". First time I saw it, but it was her second time.
I can't understand that she was willing to pay to see that movie twice!?! I am very thankful that she joined me to see it, but that movie was crap. The Reviews here have been at about 4 out of 6 stars. I think the only reason it made it up to four was that people loved the first one. If I was gonna be very nice I would give it 3 stars, but I don't really think it deserves more than 2. But then again I have never been a big Matrix fan.
This movie has so many plot holes and missing information in this move... One might argue that we will get the answers to this in the third one, but I'm not hoping.
There are also a couple of scenes between Neo and Trinity where I felt like gagging. Now, I'm not big on the mushy romantic stuff generally, but this was too much, and sooooo out of place.
My theory of "Every movie has at least one good quote" was almost crushed by this movie, but I managed to find one or two I liked. The one I remember now is. Mr.Smith is saying something like "It's all me" Then he punches a guy in the stomach, saying "Me, me, me". The guy he punched turned into a copy of Mr. Smith, and he replies: "And me." That was a bit amusing.
For all of you that saw the spoof on The MTV Movie Awards 2003 will understand why Lily and I were laughing when Neo met the Oracle. Couldn't get the spoof out of my head.
In short: This movie isn't about the plot, but "Ooooooh, look how many effects we can make". Very sad really, because I feel that the first one was onto something.
Ah, well.
