And because I'm sorry I didn't think of it yesterday, here are two doodles that represent my absolute favourite things about The Dark Knight Rises. Again, SPOILERS behind the cut.


( The Romance )


And the other thing, of course, is our sweet earnest officer with the sticking-out ears, John Blake.

Oh God, my heart. My heart.

Two things that keep bothering me about movies in the UK:

1. Before every movie there is a card that shows on screen to certify that X movie is indeed viewable to cinema audiences. It is has two spaces below which are meant to be signed by the head of the Board of Censors and the director of the film. Now Quentin whatsisname may very well be the head Censor. But who is David Cooke, and why does he sign his name instead of--oh, I don't know--the person who directed the damn movie? Peter Jackson was the only one who ever signed this weird but necessary document, and it made me love him even more. I mean, I know directors are busy, but it's this attention to detail that wins people over.

2. The audience leaving before the credits. RUDE. So many people worked hard to bring the movie out; if we liked it isn't it only common courtesy to sit through everyone's names? People who leave before the credits are rude, rude, RUDE.

Which is to say, I saw Order of the Phoenix. :D

It's too soon to give a coherent opinion, but....It was all kinds of AWESOME.

Things You Probably Shouldn't Watch Consecutively As They May Make Your Brain Wibble

House
Jeeves and Wooster

The Blue Planet ("life on the reef isn't always about food...it's also about sex!")
The Little Mermaid

Rurouni Kenshin
Kagemusha

Or, more likely, I should stop watching DVDs altogether and concentrate on...I don't know, working.
