h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

My thoughts for the last 3 hours have been mostly occupied by my awareness of the absence of cigarettes. I was sure I had one left, but a search of the entirety of my hovel seem to indicate otherwise.

One of the farms I used to live on was recently declared free of foot and mouth.

I'm waiting for Lord Flashheart to come 'round and kill me.

I'll take a bath if he doesn't get here soon.

Then I'll see if I have a pair of leg covering devices that don't have a gaping hole in the that isn't meant to be there and that I can get my fat behind inside and then walk to the Londis and pay my taxes.

Then I'll come back home and if Lord Flashheart still isn't here it could be a case of *if you want a job done properly you have to do it yourself*. But of course I won't. I'll stay here on my martyr's cross of sins and lies, waiting in vein for Lord Flashheart to come and do it for me.

I remember you have stopped smoking. As in Needle me.

So stop, now you have the chance.

And who in BoB's name is Lord you speak of???

Lord Flashheart -- "Next time you get bored with your lives just give
me a call and I'll come round and kill you."

A charming chap, often a little tardy though...

I really must rewatch some of the blackadder stuff again, I overwatched it all when i was at Uni, and have been on a period of recoperation since I'm still waiting for Goddo .. thought he'd have been here by now

*flutters by*

Read some Slaine. It helps!

Just how frelling awesome is Day Watch?!!!

Saw a clip on Johnathan Ross. looked pretty cool. STILL cant make head nor tail of Night Watch, so day watch should be a fookin laff!

Is it good good good?

The only thing that confused me about Night Watch was that I must have blinked when the subtitle explaining that Sveta had placed the curse upon herself...


I've seen Day Watch twice now, and I still think it is as you say good good good!
I want Zhanna Friske for Christmas.
I love the use of subtitles in these films. It's even more skillful than the way they're used in Heroes.
And I couldn't thinking that they packed more awesomeness into the film with their 4 million dollars than Spielberg did with the 150 million he blew on Transformers, but that could just be me.

So, you're saying that dollar for dollar, it's a better film than Transformers? AWESOME! I'll take you up on that and try to get to see it soon... Money allowing!

Question: just how jaw-dropping did you find Transformers?

It wasn't as silly, laughing all the way through at the ridiculousness as Shoot Em Up. It wasn't life-changing like, I dunno, Willow or Labrynth, and it's not one of my favourite films of all time like 300 (A-UUH! A-UUH! A-UUH!)...

However, I enjoyed it thoroughly and cant wait for the next. All I can say is that it appeals to my sensibilities. While I didnt particularly like the redesigned transformers (too shiny and pretty, I liked the blocky 80s style) it was still a hell of a thrill to see them on screen. I wanna see it 3D at an IMAX! Big fangirl grinnage! but ultimately forgettable after a couple of weeks.

Ah, Shoot Em Up was good fun.

Willow life changing - that's different.

Labyrinth - for a moment I thought you said Pan's Labyrinth and was going to go off on one about how we must worship Guillermo del Toro for Cronos, Blade 2 and the stunningly heart-distilling brilliance of Pan's Labyrinth... David Bowie scared me when I was wee.

300 -- the beards were wrong, and where were all the helots is those moody shots of field of wheat eh? Gorgeous though. "Then we shall fight in the shade."

Enough with geeky fangirls stuff it's just as arousing as when you describe yourself indulging in chocolate.

Anyway I figure Day Watch will at least be enjoyable to you. It's doesn't take itself too seriously, has sexy effects and a fine plot with a touch of sentimentality.

so the squeaking and squealing with delight during things like Batman Begins (And you should see me wtaching heroes!) are a good thing? Ooooh! And how about the over-excited shooting of zombies with a pump-action shotgun? (Oh my! House of the Dead 3 EATS my money but I LOVE it! bangbangbangbangbangbang*shunkshunk*bangbangbangbangbangbang*shunkshunk*bangbangbangbangbangbang*shunkshunk*bangbangbangbangbangbang*shunkshunk*Oh crap, I died again *snik* damn, only a fiver left... bangbangbangbangbangbang*shunkshunk*bangbangbangbangbangbang*shunkshunk*bangbangbangbangbangbang


Hee heeeeeeee!

You got me all 'cited now!

And yes, Willow was life-changing. I discovered fantasy, Val Kilmer (hey, I was young) and just how scary a film can be before I cant watch it... I'm easily scared...

300 didnt have to be 'correct'. It's just so 'RIGHT'

Havent seen Pans Labrynth yet... I keep intending to but need to be i the mood to give it my attention properly.

As for Day Watch, I saw the clip where she drives along the building and then back through the hallway... I was grinning from 'ere to 'ere so I can safely say that there's at least parts of it I'll enjoy

Yes and yes. Did you really ever doubt it?


re: Pan's Labyrinth -- get in the mood. Though be prepared for two hours of heart-wrenchingly life affirming cinematic brilliance.

Aye, that's Alisa/Zhanna Friske -- I still want one for Christmas.

I've been offered marriage and a life as a luxuriously kept woman if I learned russian.. Apparently it's quite sexy...

*wants to learn russian!*

I'm thinking of John Cleese in A Fish Called Wanda...

*nods furiously*

That sorta thing, but without the sock garters

But, with garters of a more appealing kind one might hope...

Ooh, no, garters are a waste of time and make my thighs look flabby... I prefer stockings and suspenders, preferably from a full body basque, but they are hard to find with good cup sizes.. Apparently only skinny women with no boobs or skinny women with HUGE boobs like to wear a basque...

Though lately I've been liking just the knee-high-socks look. Might pull that one off again tomorrow night actually... The schoolgirl needs a whirl, she's not had one in a while...
