I need to get to town and buy more music. James Blunt and Muse in particular. Muse for sure, as I don't have nearly enough by them. And James Blunt because, well, since SNL I've had him stuck in the back of my head basically.
Randomly, there's been some talk about the movie for
The Da Vinci Code and how it could be an Oscar contender (or something) next year for Tom Hanks. So far, it hasn't struck me as the regular Oscar kind of material. And, frankly, the book's not *that* great. It's fluff. It's Michael Crichton lite. And, yeah, okay, maybe Hanks will do a kick ass job and be nominated, but it still doesn't strike me as something at that level. (And, god, I guess
Titanic is at that level and look what that got.) Basically, I'm kind of amazed at the big deal being made over the whole thing. It's a fun read, it'll be an entertaining movie
(What really gets me is the fuss over the Mary Magdalene thing. It's not a new idea, people. Sure, Dan Brown made it more accessible to the general public, but the idea has been around for ages.)
Anyhoo. Television's been very good to me lately. :D
In regards to the most recent episode of
Nip/Tuck, I have one abbreviation and two words:
( OMG petrified fetus! )And then there was
( Project Runway )You know, the previews on Sci-Fi for Sci-Fi Friday aren't nearly as exciting when a third of the footage being shown is stuff you've already seen thanks to the lovely people up in Canada. But, hey, at least Ben Browder's still hot.
In which there are lots of "oh, Rodney"s and several "oh, John"s, and some flailing. Really, nothing important. But I don't really have anyone here at home to appreciate it with me.
( SGA - Grace Under Pressure )Sigh. Yeah. Good ep. Definitely one of my all time favorites.
