I think that I would understand Brokeback if it were in a completely different language. I'd say as a silent film, but then you wouldn't have all the gorgeous soundtrack and aching silences and perfect sound effects. But it's a film that doesn't need a word of intelligable dialogue (and doesn't have that many.) The script is good, but it's visually and aurally perfect. Every scene is its own story and fits into the bigger story, every scene has a purpose, and the visual framing and mise-en-scene is always flawless.
Also, every single ad on TV is sexist.
I'm getting tired of the afternoon thunderstorms we get around here. Also, I was going to see Pan's Labyrinth again tonight with Mitchell but he opted out so I watched The OC instead. It all seems very anti-climactic for an end to a 4-season show. I liked it better this season without Marissa but I still felt like it was too much about the couples and not enough about the other relationships on the show. I miss the Seth/Ryan time mostly.

Nominations for the important awards of the season - The Saturn Awards - are up. Children of Men may not have been nominated for an Oscar but if it doesn't win the Saturn there's something wrong with the world. SNAKES ON A PLANE AND SLITHER! I hope the girl from Pan's wins best young actor. Alfonso vs. Guillermo for Best Director is an interesting one. Alfonso Cuaron is my favourite director but Pan's Labyrinth was done beautifully. Heroes, Lost and Veronica Mars are all up against each other for Best Series - that's a hard one for me, and why no Supernatural?? My FAVOURITE category is Best Supporting Actor, there's only one name on that list I don't know and love (but I'm rooting for Masi.)
Also nominated was Battlestar Galactica, and I have a link to pictures from that signing event I told all you Californians to go to but I guess you didn't hear me or something. I want Tahmoh Penikett so badly, holy crap. He's just. I can't even. And I don't LIKE V-neck tops on men.

Each player of this game starts off with 10 weird things/habits/little known facts about yourself. People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 10 weird habits/things/little known facts as well as state this rule clearly.At the end you need to choose 10 people to be tagged and list their names. No tagbacks. Then everyone has to post one weird thing about me in the comments. Okay, I made the last bit up. Humour me.
1. I really, really dislike small, underlit bathrooms. I don't know whether it's because the bathroom in my house now is ridiculously huge, or because the one in Tokyo was so small you could barely move and lit terribly, or because with my glasses off I need lots of light or I could fall and die. I just hate tiny bathrooms.
2. I don't just have a mouth fetish or an oral fixation, I literally judge people by their mouths. I usually look at mouths instead of eyes when people are talking, too. This is why I am obsessed with Dom's new mouth.
3. As an addendum to 2, enunciation turns me on.
4. I don't held pens or chopsticks the way they're supposed to be held. I rest my pen against my ring finger instead of my middle finger.
5. Soup makes me queasy.
6. I am the biggest procrastinator ever. It's an ART FORM for me.
7. I think in words, not in pictures. As a result of this I have a really bad visual memory and visual imagination. I can remember specific pictures if I really try, but colours are more impressions than colours. It also gives me weird dreams because the visuals are rarely fixed like in other people's.
8. I don't mind spiders too much at all - I'm happy to catch Hunstmen as big as my hand in a jar and put them outside - but I'm completely freaked out by insects of all kinds. Even those tiny moths. Not so much flies, because I live in Australia and if I were freaked out by flies I would pretty much never be able to leave the house, but everything else. Especially butterflies.
9. I like to show off my stuff. It's true, I am a material girl, but not so much for expensive or fashionable or cool things. Just my things, and my people, too - photos of my family, my convention collections, cool stuff my friends have done.
10. I can cross one eye without crossing the other. Oh, I'm also ridiculously short-sighted. -8 in the right eye, -6 in the left, for those who know about these things.

Something weird about you? Hmmm.. YOU STILL REFUSE TO WATCH THE OFFICE.
Also, BBM = love. I wish we would have been friends last year when it was BBM Fever because I was INSANE about it.

I think about these things in the shower. Normal people think about their day, I think about how perfect Brokeback Mountain is.
Aww, Trucco seems sweet! He's just not as silly as the other two.

Hayden Panettiere spam...*drool*
I'm only 20 and it still feels a little wrong. But I'm sending the writers telepathic messages for some Hayden/Ali onscreen (or offscreen for that matter, as long as it's highly publicised...) lovin'. Ohhh, yes.
