Time Travel and Talk Shows
Dec. 6th, 2003 12:39 amSaw "The Time Machine" yesterday! That movie really sucked! I've seen the old version, and that one was just plain boring, but this new version
was terrible! Geez! The old version is a masterpiece compared to this version. The monkey people (Morlocks) just looked terrible, I was laughing my ass off when they showed up on screen. And the humans (Eloi), well, don't have too much to say about that... Another thing, I don't usually have anything to say about the score of the movie, but I can't shut up about this one. The music was really irritating, it sounded like a tape recorder that's running out of batteries. Just plain terrible. Hmm, I should shut up now, cos I'm just rambling.
Saw "V Garham Norton" this evening, Val Kilmer was a guest... is that guy on drugs?? Or is he just slow? I think being the voice for Moses got to his head... he had a full-grown beard, and just basically looked like a hobo. Ok, 'll shut up, don't want to offend any fans. Urgh...
Then I saw "Friday Night with Jonathan Ross". Ozzy and Kelly Osbourne were on, always funny. They started talking on one time Kelly had walked in on
Sharon and Ozzy while they ere having sex. Disturbing. I really like that talk show, it's not so typical as the other talk-shows. He usually has fun guests anyway.
Hmm, am really rambling today aren't I? I'm just bored. Camelia is out at a concert; Händel's "Messiah". Then she's going to a party. I'm staying home for two reasons; I've got my period, and I don't really know the people having the party. Besides I'm not really a party person, I prefer quiet cafe's or just staying in with some friends. Ah, well I still have fun, just in a more quiet day.
Oh! I almost forgot! I got a C+ on my "Reading Film" test! It counts for 30% of my final grade, so I'm happy. I was so sure I had flunked. Last lesson he went through some stuff and said what people had done wrong, and then I just though. "This can't have gone well." Now, just before he was going to hand out the test yesterday, he said that four people in our class had gotten an F, and then I was soooo sure I had flunked. So, he handed them out, and I wasn't going to look at it, but couldn't help myself, and there it was! A C+! I almost jumped out of my chair and did a happy dance, but managed to contain myself. I am so pleased. I know C+ isn't the greatest grade in the world, but it's the best one I've gotten in quite some time. :)
Bought the soundtrack for "The Return of the King" today. It was beautiful! Wow! Just great to get into the spirit before the movie. Billy Boyd and Viggo Mortensen are featured on the Cd, very nice. I thought Liv Tyler was also supposed to have a song on the track, but I might have been misinformed.
So, now three of the hobbits are featured on some kind of CD, just need to hear Sean Astin. I'm crossing my fingers for Sam's little song in Cirith Ungol. They didn't really want to answer that at the "Collectormania 4" screening. So I'm choosing to take the silence as a "yes". Ah, well, I'll find out in 12 days!
I don't really know what to make of Annie Lennox's song... I like it, but I just can't connect it to "Lord of the Rings". I just can't, but I was the one who wanted Enya to sing the title song for all three films. "May it Be" is my favorite one so far anyway. People might disagree with me, and they are welcome to do so, but I'm sticking with my choice
Think I'll sign off now, am getting fed up with writing.
