The Brothers Grimm, and other matters

First of all, happy birthday to imadra_blue! And apologies to people who deserve them - I've been a complete disaster about getting things done lately >_<

Took off a few hours from sleeping and reading today in order to go see Terry Gilliam's The Brothers Grimm - just the slightly-nightmarish extravaganza of supreme set decorations and acting skills I'd expected it to be. Worth seeing if only for the way Matt Damon looks (un-bloody-recognizable) and Jonathan Pryce's French Accent.

Am still unhappy with it, though, because THEY KILLED A KITTEN. A soft fluffy white persian one, and FSCK you don't do that and get away with it. So a warning to sensitive people: when they come back from the forest that first time, that's a good time for a bathroom break. Nothing important happens in that scene anyway.

In other news: I actually use "fsck" as a real-life expletive. Am geek^n. Also, Wednesday's Vampires would have the second Krolock - as in, not the one I have the hots for - so I'm selling off those tickets.

NaNo: Part 7 and skirting the edge of keeping up with schedule, but still ahead by a grand total of 16 words. Have got to write more tomorrow.
