Real life has been a killer of late but no more! 6 weeks and 2 days until I fly off to Vancouver, I'm so very very excited.
Things that I've seen lately - TDKR, The Amazing Spiderman and probably a couple more that I'll remember in a minute. First of all, TDKR was pretty amazing. I wasn't blown away but still it was one of the best films I've seen in a long time. I'm still a Dark Knight girl at heart and I think I was always going to compare the two films unfortunately. The third felt like it was just moving from big set piece to big set piece, there were no fun and games in between. Although Anne Hathaway did try her best as Catwoman. And there were a few casualties along the way, the main one being the atrocious lack of screen time given to Cillian Murphy (one of my favourite actors) as Scarecrow. I would have loved to have seen more of his character as the judge in the people's court.
I really enjoyed Spiderman as well, not just for the utterly adorable Andrew Garfield. It did what it said on the tin and I found it far more likeable than the 2002 version. So YAY!
We've had a new trailer for Doctor Who over the last couple of days which looks amazing. I have never really been a fan of Amy Pond but I seem to be liking her more as the series go on. Shame that we're about to lose her, and Rory of course.
Ooh, big excitement last weekend as I went to see The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Radio Roadshow with NEIL GAIMAN as the voice of the Guide. Unbelievably exciting to be in the same room as him, I was floating above my seat for most of it I think. It was really good fun, with the original cast there for the voices and some amazing sound effects and live music as well.
I think that's it for the moment, I will hopefully be writing something more serious soon, there are a few ideas percolating in my head mainly to do with the awesome novel I'm reading at the moment. But all shall be revealed.
I'm off out to a nerdy comedy thing. *sigh* I love nerds.
