Big Big Love (Fig 2) – Foals
Sometimes I wish I could film my life with super-speed camera’s and strobe lights.
Yesterday I finally saw a film in theatres, which is something I hadn’t done since Iron Man. Yes, its only been two weeks, but for the past 2 months I’ve been seeing HEAPS of films. Anyway, Dillan and I saw Robin Hood. It was actually a lot better than I anticipated. Yeah, Russle Crowe’s accent was all over the place, but the direction of the film was great. And the sets and stuff. AND MARK STRONG OMG I OFFICIALLY LOVE THAT MAN. He is SO GOOD. Other than that, though, there wasn’t much going for the film. At times you couldn’t figure out exactly what the film was about, what the main focus of the plot was on, which annoyed me. But its ok. I like it like I liked Avatar, it was a good film, just not my favourite.
I think lately film has really improved. I mean, I get a lot more excited about films than I ever did before this year. That could also be because I read Empire more religiously, but still. I mean, I can’t wait for A-Team to come out, and so far 2010 has produced some of my favourite films to date (aka Kick Ass and Iron Man 2). And with the way the world is evolving, film is only going to get better too! This is very exciting stuff.
The rest of Saturday was great, too. It did rain after we left the theatres (walking around the city in the rain is actually great, though, so I don’t mind), but Mountain Dew made up for that. It was also the night of Yasmin’s/Danielle’s/Elisha’s birthday celebrations. The three of them just bunched their birthdays together, and celebrated at Yas’. It was fun, we had bonfires & trampolines & cake & stuff. It did get cold, though. But it was great, I haven’t seen Stacey or Maddie at a party in ages and those two are great, so it was nice being with them. And Danielle. She’s so nice, it was great when she came to sit with us.
Lately I’ve really been in the mood for re-decorating my bedroom. I came across Olga Bennett’s photography portfolio, and she’s done a series of workspaces of people from various creative fields, like fashion designers and illustrators and the like. My favourite is Luci Everett’s space. I would love to have the chance to spice up my room, only my father still hasn’t gotten me a desk (I’ve had my current one since I was 6), or new shelves (my current ones are half-made and breaking), or doors on my wardrobe (so no mirrors, I have no idea how I step out of the house every day). Its incredibly irritating.
I am so not in the blogging mood right now. It has been raining a lot lately. Its officially winter, I guess, even if it isn’t June yet. Nearly is, though. Whatever. This is the end of the blog.

Been waiting for The A-Team for ages. Omnomnom Bradley Cooper. And the Losers. That’s gonna be AMAZING too. Who does Mark Strong play in Robin Hood?
Reminds me…I live near a place called Blackwood pmsl.
Decorating my room this summer! Dying of excitement pmsl.

Dude, up until like two weeks ago, I had never even heard of Robin Hood! But, I guess I underestimated it, too. And A-Team is gonna be fucking amazing! <3 Bradley Cooper is the bomb. I saw Iron Man a week ago. Robert Downey, Jr. gives me crazy chills.
Okay, I'm gonna end this comment.

Mark Strong… I too love this man! I first saw him in Star Dust, and then Miss Pettigrew Lives For a Day, both film he plays an utter douche, yet loveable still, haha.
I haven’t been the cinemas in forever.

I haven’t seen Iron Man2 or Kickass yet, I am waiting for the DVDs to come out. For Iron Man though I am buying all of them and not renting, this way I have them all when the Avengers comes about.
Love, Sean
