happy new year
Dec. 31st, 2005 02:38 am. . .and good riddance to the old.
I haven't posted movies in awhile, so i'm just going to make a short list since I otherwise can't be arsed.
October
Dracula 2000 -shuttup!
Happy Together - pretty, gay. Does Wong Kar-Wai ever have a plot? Love Tony Leung.
November
Stay
The Notebook
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Murder by Numbers
Pride and Prejudice - not as good as the BBC miniseries, but still very pretty
December
Infernal Affairs - Awesome. Still love Tony Leung. Need the dvd.
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe - Jadis kicks serious ass. Love.
Serenity - Damn you, Joss Whedon, damn you to hell.
( cut for spoilers )
Anyway, to continue...
Memoirs of a Geisha - Still managed to be pretty romantic even if the characters are, as my sister put it, "basically high priced ho's." And yes, I know that geisha are artists, not prostitutes and if you read any research about geisha culture, it'll say the same thing, but in the movie? Yeah. Ho's.
Skeleton Key -passably creepy.
That'll probably be it for this year, since I don't have time to watch any movies for the next day or so. I'm still trying to finish reading Oliver Twist so I'll have one last book for this year.

"Warm, cozy gingerbread spiced with nutmeg, clove and cinnamon."
Damn, this smells good. I'm gonna put it on tonight when I go to sleep and dream of rich, buttery gingerbread cake.
That's all for tonight.
