I. I'm still watching The West Wing and genuinly enjoying it a lot. I'm almost finished with S2 now. I love all the characters a lot and feel very guilty that in my first post I called Sam boring because I love him and he is adorable and funny, actually. CJ is consistently my favourite, and I really enjoy the Josh/Donna banter and Toby being unhappy all the time. And Ainsley Hayes is awesome as well. I don't have much more to say on it, really.
II. I tried watching The Borgias but I didn't finish the first movie-length episode even though Cesare was great and I have an eternal affection for Jeremy Irons because of Brideshead Revisited despite the crazy and disturbing shit he sometimes says. I also JUST realised I hadn't included Brideshead in my intro post, which is a disgrace. So let it be noted it is one of my favourite things in the world. (miniseries mostly, obviously also the novel, the movie less so).
Anyway, I think I may someday go back to The Borgias just because I am interested in the character of Chesare and in François Arnoud - but for now I'm holding off.
III. And this week in the category of LIFERUINERS WITH RIDICULOUS FACES WHO CANNOT POSSIBLE BE THIS ADORABLE ALL THE TIME:
- I watched Zombieland even though I hate horror movies, because it starred two of my favourite people. It was really good! The horror was over the top enough to not freak me out, and it was funny and a lot of fun. Someone's ear is in danger of having hair brushed over it is one of the most adorable lines ever in the world. Everyone should really watch this movie! It had zombie!Bill Murray! Woody Harrelson shoots zombies while riding a rollercoaster! Emma and Jesse are just as awesome and adorable as you would expect of them!
- And I FINALLY got to go see Never Let Me Go in the cinema (which is always awkward when you start bawling and then try to be subtle about it but then the bloody lights go on as soon as the credits start rolling and everyone sees what a sap you are). Anyway, it was everything I hoped it would be and more. Carey Mulligan was really great, and the girl they cast as her younger self had a freakish resemblance. Andrew Garfield pretty much had me grinning like a lunatic everytime he was on screen (when he wasn't making me bawl). I'm pretty sure many of you have seen it but if you haven't yet, watch this movie! If it's possible, because for some reason it is only showing in like 4 tiny cinema's in Belgium? It stars Keira Knightley and Spiderman AND had great reviews, programming people, what is your problem?
Also, my mum remarked that "that guy playing Tommy is kind of handsome, isn't he". YOU DON'T SAY. I love it when she likes things/people I have been fangirling over for months without realising it :P.
IV. I've also started making icons again, because Doctor Who was too pretty not to. It's keeping me entertained and this time I might actually post them :/. Maybe.
