New chapter up at
peter_and_fran.
I don't know if you know what the weather's like here in Canberra, but we're pretty much always in drought. It never rains. Except that for about the past week it's been doing nothing but, and it's been cold, and I like the rain since we need it and all but DAMN I'm tired of being wet and cold every time I step outside. I worked in the cold and rain for a bit today before working inside with a sleepy, crying Luke. Could've been worse. He could've been hyper.
I missed Andrea Gabriel at the Lage :(
I have a hair on my chin. Just one. I thought you'd all like to know that. Also, I'm working on a new Lord of the Rings icon batch.
1. Current favorite TV show? Lost, of course.
2. What show/movie/book/etc does everyone else like except you?
Show: I don't like any of the CSI/Law & Order etc. shows. None of them.
Movie: Garden State. I like it, just not as much as everyone else seems to.
Book: Dunno really.
3. Favorite snack food? Chocolate.
4. Do you believe in *true* love at first sight? True love? Don't know. Guess I'll have to wait and see.
5. What is your non-canon OTP*? (including crossovers) Yeah, so I just forgot to continue this halfway through. Erm. Depends on your view of what canon is, really. Most of my pairings aren't strictly canon, but are on the obvious side of non-canon. I mean, Sam/Frodo is canon. Let's go for Ryan/Seth, shall we?
6. If you were elected president, what's the first thing you'd do? Make gay marriage legal. (<--
truffle_shuffle wrote that but it's the first thing I'd do too.)
7. Which bad habit do you wish you could break? Laziness.
8. What's one thing other people do that pisses you off on a daily basis? Post something pointless or inflammatory to an LJ community. Just. Argh. If you think the bad guy in Spiderman 2 is called Zato and you don't know the name of the actor who plays Jin, don't fucking well post, or check your facts first.
9. Who would star in the movie of your life? Tom seems to think Lauren Ambrose.
10. Which of the LJ moods describes you right now? I put in Listless didn't I? Because my shoulder hurts.
Watched Lost 1x18 - Numbers again tonight. Worst Aussie accent EVER, but aside from that one of my favourite episodes. Hurley, Charlie and Sayid, my three favourite characters, out for a walk!
Links of the Day: Elizabethtown trailer. Orlando looks really good with his hair like that, and he actually looks like he's acting in the trailer. Of course they could've just pulled his finest moments from the film, but...so far it's looking better than I'd expected. He has his Legolas moments, but mostly he looks okay - physical comedy seems to suit him. The jumping on the bed is adorable. In fact he's adorable through the whole thing, makes me want to hug him. However, they seem to avoid him actually talking in the trailer, so his accent probably sucks. Susan Sarandon is GORGEOUS, and I want the song in the trailer.
I think that trailer's enough to make me develop an *actual* crush on Orlando Bloom. Kill me.
Also, Peter Jackson has been kidnapped and replaced by a poorly made robot. Or lost a LOT of weight. Either way.
Oh, and this post. Including all the comments.
metaquotes is the funniest community.
Songs of the Day: Time of My Life by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes
Medley? Surely not. Anyway, this is the Dirty Dancing song. I love the fact that in spite of the fact that it's supposed to sound 60's they get some synth in there. Synth is the bane of the 80s.
Balle Balle (Punjabi Wedding Song by the cast of Bride & Prejudice
OMG! OMG! Etc.
Pics of the Day: Orlando Bloom. If you value your life you will shut the hell up right now.


















My favourite pic of him.

And HOLYFRIGGINCRAP- Peter doesn't even look like Peter anymore. Holy Crap. What diet/work program did they put him on, I want in!
From:
no subject
I don't know, but I miss the old Peter. He's even thinner than when I saw him in Sydney.
From:
no subject
It is. It's in the script.
From:
no subject
For now I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say it's the latter.
From:
no subject
I don't think that's considered a trailer, though. Maybe a kinda sneak peek? A lot of it seems to be in need of some editing. But whatever. Excited!!!
From:
no subject
Yeah, a sneak peak is more accurate. But isn't it good?
From:

I have faith in Orlando. I always have faith in Orlando. I just keep believing that he will grow as an actor and get better. Which, really, he has. It's just going a lot slower than I'd hoped.
From:
no subject
Hmm. I never have. I thought he would just always suck. Glad I'm wrong! Or so it seems.

I would have doubted seeing it a little, but his performance in Kingdom of Heaven had made such a vast improvement that I think I am all for this new movie now. He really is improving as an actor, slowly, but steadily and I'm kinda siked about it.
And wow...Pete looks like a totally different person. He looks great and he's wearing pants and socks now too....doesn't have all that Pete-ness to keep him warm! Right on PJ!
*cheezy grin*
From:

I so wanna see a pic of him as a kid with braces...*sighs* He'd probably still be hot though.
From:

Bah, I don't see how it's a good thing. I miss Hobbit!PJ.
And may I add, I think Orlando's always had straight teeth. Evil bitch.
From:
no subject
And yeah...I kinda miss teh cuddly ol Hobbit myself, but I still say right on that he's in better health now and can therefore continue to make us righteous kick-ass movies for longer than perhaps in his less than perfect physical condition from before. I have a little room to talk...I too suffer the curse of obesity...and my physical health has suffered a lot. I'm proud of him...I've tried everything short of the Gastric-Bypass and can't seem to lose more than 5 or 10 pounds. I would sooooooo get that the instant I had enough money to do so.
My step-sister got it and she's so skinny you can hardly recognize her.

I tried twice to see the Elizabethtown trailer, but both times I clicked that link my computer completely froze up, and now I'm afraid to try it any more. That is the link of DOOM.
(Really, it's not like that trailer won't soon be popping up on every Orlando fan site in every format possible, but still. *glares*)
The Dirty Dancing song! *loves* What the hell is it with that movie? I've been dizzy over it since I was about nine or ten.
If you value your life you will shut the hell up right now.
*remains totally silent, but grins in a vaguely hopeful kind of way*
I have high hopes for him in E-town. He can DO it. I KNOW he can.
And hey, who is he petting in that fifth picture, the one from Haven?
The boy has slash coming out his pores!From:

It's an awesome trailer! He looks fantastic in it. Oddly. I don't know who he's petting.
