Ick!
Too hot.
We're off to see movies - Cat and Monstrous Bebe to see 'Spiderman 2' and me to see King Arthur.
I'll update with a little critique when i get home, i think.
Whoot!
Air conditioning and popcorn!!!
SPOILERS AHEAD!
Edited to add this. Okay. I did enjoy the movie. It was lovely to look at, it was well made with an incredible cast. Not a single, annoying American in the lot!
BUT...
The movie ITSELF was too...American for me. As an American, that might seem odd, but... There's a certain - attitude. A certain 'message' - hell that there IS a 'message' - is just SO American! It's annoying.
A few moments of bathos that made me a bit pissed, and a few too many 'duh? that wouldn't work' moments that jerked me out of the flow...
All in all? It could have been SO much more, and wasn't. I'd say it was good, but not excellent, and NOT entirely what i expected.
*sigh*
AND? SO many moments when we could have gone a tiny, tiny TEENY step further and had boitouching slashy moment and they just...didn't take advantage.
But, lovely to look at, and maybe some of the awkwardness was due to cuts the director had to make. We'll see.
I'd say, if you're really on a budged or pressed for time, wait to rent this.

We did see Spiderman 2 and liked it a lot. My husband is surprised that I'm not more eager to see King Arthur, given the number of books on my shelves on that subject, but I was waiting to hear whether it was any good. I'm kind of picky about King Arthur. I thought the Merlin mini-series on TV a while ago was pretty lame. Also, have to get the babysitter again! Is it worth the expense?

Probably so, although i DON'T have a lot of historical knowledge about the time.
I'm putting up a little review at my journal in a few if you'd like to read it.

I just read Letters again.
Yes I'm an addict.
But you made me cry, again.
And get all squishy and hot and bothered.
And it happens every. freaking. time.
And I just thought you should know.
*swoons*

Ummm....I'm amazingly flattered, giddy, and grinning like a complete idiot.
Thank you!
Made my day.
I think Letters is about my favorite i've written, so far.
