the nomness

I feel I should post just this one screengrab and have that say it all for my review of Local Hero. It’s certainly the impetus for finding the film in the first place, although it’s not the only thing I came away with. The face Oldsen pulls, softly bouncing on the balls of [...]

I am so excited to see this film that I squee.  Audibly.  To the great distress of my cat, or sometimes the unfortunate person I am talking to on the phone.  This morning it was my aunt.

Why this film is applicable to this site goes without saying, ob……..(wait for it)…..viously.  THIS should be amazing visually [...]

I saw In The Loop over the weekend and I’m already dying for an extended 2-disc Blu-Ray release. In a useless attempt to avoid my mind’s oversaturation of this beautiful, beautiful character, I am instead choosing to focus on Peter Capaldi’s body of work. Heh. Local Hero arrives tomorrow, I’ve already bought [...]

Oh Jesus. I just saw two episodes of The Thick Of It, a BBC comedy from a few years back upon which the film In The Loop is based, and I’m dying. First off, the show is brilliant. I know I want to see the film but right now I just want to watch [...]

I’m briefly popping my head up from editing this next behemoth to share the sweetest countdown to the Season 6 House premiere that I’ve ever seen. Nevermind that it’s the only one I’ve ever seen. I have a feeling that, short of video of Hugh Laurie counting backwards, this one will take the [...]

This week’s memes included:

My own personal Twi-nom goes – Rob, Jackson, Peter, Kellan, Taylor, and the various boys from there.  If I feel compelled to let my mind wander, Jasper often finds himself lost in that big ‘ole house and wanders into an awkward situation with Edward and Bella.  My stories are always so much [...]

It’s not that I’m SPOILED, per se (please reference South Park), but it’s more that even now in my 30-somethingth year, I am always suprised when faced with the idea that I canNOT have something. I’m smacked in the face with a big ‘ole WTF – I can not haz?!  and then I go immediately [...]

I think the subject here is a bit misleading. I’m talking new old like when NBC would run old episodes of Friends over the summer 8 years ago with the tagline “If you haven’t seen it then it’s new to you.” And now this is entirely wrong because in no way is Friends [...]

Eff & I got to talking about Crispin Glover this morning (do NOT ask how, I’m not entirely comfortable with the path we had to take to get there), and I immediately jumped to his Letterman interview. Then I went mushy thinking about Letterman, because I’m probably one of only three or four folks [...]

Laymee and I went to a very early dinner, and then imbibed (as we are want to do) on beer.  And wine.  Then, an hour before the screening, we meandered over to the cinema and planted our arses in the frontish (no other seats.)  I think I need a deep tissue massage today – old [...]
