I forgot about this in my last post, but I love that part in Watchmen after Ozymandias explains his great plan. Rorschach and Nite Owl are all, "Well, we can't let you do that. We're going to stop you." And Ozymandias is all, "Would I have told you all that if I thought that was possible?" Followed by possibly one of my favorite quotes in the whole thing

"I did it thirty-five minutes ago."

I laughed a little hysterically and had to set the book down for a minute. It was just...kind of perfect.

Also, I'm really not bashing Twilight since I did enjoy the first one a lot, but this quote from Robert Pattinson makes me laugh:

"When you read the book," says Pattinson, looking appropriately pallid and interesting even without makeup, "it's like, 'Edward Cullen was so beautiful I creamed myself.' I mean, every line is like that. He's the most ridiculous person who's so amazing at everything. I think a lot of actors tried to play that aspect. I just couldn't do that. And the more I read the script, the more I hated this guy, so that's how I played him, as a manic-depressive who hates himself. Plus, he's a 108-year-old virgin so he's obviously got some issues there."

I think what Pattinson is trying to do is distance himself from the screaming hoards of fangirls. Apparently the whole cast was at Comic-Con and the fans were a little...crazy.

And as for the other part...He's kind of not kidding. At least, the books are told in first person and there isn't a part in the first book where she isn't praising some aspect of Edward. Even when she doesn't like him she still finds him attractive. All the praise does, after a while, get a little tedious. But I can easily see the manic-depressive thing.
