One thing that is quite sad (boo hoo sad, not doug you're really pretty sad arn't you? sad) about spending as much time as i do reading movie news and being excited about movies is that i'm always excited around the time it's announced and then have to wait like a year for it to be made and come out.
well a nice thing is that i have just seen the trailer for a film called Stardust and it's got me crazy excited, and it come out in like a month. woo hoo for no waiting. and the film's all sky piratey and magic and crazy fun and swordfighting which you know i love.
although, you want waiting - i'm literally counting down the days till halo 3 comes out. or more accuratly til the weekend after so that me and my halo playing buddies can go play.
so. freaking. excited.
thats not to say that i've been doing nothing but wait. oh no, plenty of new-house chores, (i had giant green hands today to pick up huge amounts of holly cuttings - i pretended to be a dinosaur, but then couldn't think of any that had big hands, so settled on a huge monster that roars and waves his arms. oh, you can scorn now but soon all of japan will be in a tizzy.)
also, in the shock/at last catagory, i have organised my dissertation's classroom intervention.
with 2 months to go it's time to start doing things.
oh yes, a science communicator is me.
depending on your definitions i have also been partying, tho in a silver wedding aniversary sence. still, it was a great excuse to wear a suit, drink heavyly and then spend the last hour in a ball pit.
on the subject of ball pits, im thinking of installing one when i eventually get a house/flat/hut, they are immencely comfortable, you can hide in them and spring out at unsuspecting passers by and make them spill their drinks, throw an endless supply of balls at people or just swim in your shirt and tie. versatile and hilarious. could be amazing - but expencive unfortunatly.
but i think i have found a nearly perfect job for me, there's science, communication, nuclear fission and big equipment.
all that it lacks is puppets, for now...

So did you see it then - Stardust? It was partly your fault that I dragged the Sci Comm house out to watch it on Thursday... ***SPOILER WARNING*** It's cheese-a-rama right? And pretty shocking writing (Jonathan Ross' wife - could explain it) but highly entertaining. Although I'm still getting over the fact that Michelle Pfeiffer says "B****cks" in it. Oh and Robert DeNiro... say no more.
Did she say b****cks in it? i must a missed that. but it was pretty hardcore for a PG, all that divination by entrails and dead princes - blood everywhere, but, cleverly, blue blood so it gets round the censors. genius
I though it was more laughs than a barrel of monkeys (thats one of the highest ranks of doug films, in terms of laughs at least)
also i hummed the robert de niro song when he's prancing around, all the way home to upset my friends. great fun.
Yep, I'm sure she did. I nearly missed it myself. She was sitting in her carriage and her boobs dropped/face cracked it bit more (I can't quite remember which) and then she kind of muttered it.
