Wow, I got
nothing done this weekend. I was planning to write either fic (I know, I know) or a review of
The Other Boleyn Girl, which I saw on Friday and didn't hate, unlike everyone else in the world, apparently. But I just wasn't feeling inspired. And then on Saturday I had a huge allergy attack and ended up just lying in bed watching
Monty Python and the Holy Grail and the
Sweeney Todd stage show from 1982 with George Hearn and Angela Lansbury. (I'm just going to be a bad theatre fangirl and say it: it was rubbish compared to the movie. I know, they're two different mediums and Johnny's super-restrained expression-driven performance totally wouldn't have worked onstage, but my god. Al Pacino in
The Devil's Advocate called and said "whoa, take it down a notch, partner." Hearn was just shouty all the way through to the point of absurd comedy--in the final scene he was literally shaking her and bellowing "LUCY!", causing me to shake an imaginary plastic bag and go "FISHIE! WHY ARE YOU SLEEPING?" At least Angela was awesomely psycho and stuff, but everyone else was annoying. Toby couldn't sing
or act. And the blood was PATHETIC. Fangirl is displeased.)
And then today my mom came to town, so we just hung around and ate and did a bit of shopping, and then I came home and fiddled around online and watched TV and stuff. Oh well. Maybe will write something tomorrow. For now, I'll just...do this meme again:
Rules:1. Pick 15 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie. Just don't look at comments, kiddies.
ETA: Fine, I'm screenin'!
5. NO GOOGLING/using IMDb search functions. I mean, I guess you could, but where's the fun in that? Try to guess on your own at least first.
( and here we go! )P.S., I totally loved Ellen on SNL. "Mama, I think he's tryin' to seminate that I'm fat or summin'!" Hee!
