OMG best western since unforgiven!

[janie_tangerine]

Ok, as you already have guessed that I went to see 3:10 to Yuma.

GOSH WHAT A MOVIE.

I never was too big on Russel Crowe to tell you the truth BUT I'm very big on Christian Bale, since Velvet Goldmine, and OMG in this one he was just amazing. And mr Crowe CAN act, wow. Both terrific. And the plot was just perfect (BUT THE ENDING, WTF? T-T) and it was a WESTERN like it should be, I think the best I've seen since 'Unforgiven' at least with the timing (meaning the best since 1992 XD) and well while no one could ever top THAT movie, oh god. I so, so, so loved it. Technically it was perfect too and damn it screams to be slashed. Now I'm gonna see again the old version which I remember had a very much happier ending and if I remember right I'll just try to merge the two things and hopefully this could get me out of the block, or at least partially. I hope, really.

Also if there was a guy with a five year old kid there which kind of was pointless, I mean, when there was someone getting a bullet out of a wound he was screaming °_° also if in the end he was all like OMG THIS IS TEH COOLEST MOVIE EVER SEEN which was partly true but.. O_O oh well, go see it. Oh go see it. I mean. Just.







I so want more caps of this.

*is such a western!whore*

*goes iconing*

That said, some news?

Mmmmh, news n1 I may have some sort of job. Well last year I gave some Greek and occasionally Latin repetitions to a girl at my school and it seems that my number has gone a long way because last day the mother of another girl who doesn't go to my ex-school called to ask me if I was willing to give repetitions again. So now tomorrow I'm going there and hope it works, because I wouldn't really mind some money coming and if I wanted to forget everything screw that, I'll just allow myself to forget maths XD

News n2 I don't know WHY did I ever choose the Rosseau course at university. Apart from the fact that the guy isn't a bad teacher but it's... well... just not too great either, I can't flash myself the Lost Rosseau everytime °_° and I can't ramble on how Rosseau's civilization theories actually have a sense if applied to Lost while I should be listening but that's a whole another matter.

And I think I'll be reading A tale of two cities next. I really want to finish a Dickens book. And that one's short, sort of, so I'll try again with that. Hoping I actually get through it. Blah, I want to like Dickens, really, but the most I did was half of the Pickwick papers, which I even was liking but... oh well, I'll finish everything, eventually.

Music speaking, I've got Warren Zevon's Mutineer on repeat. God what a genious and what a record. It never was one of my favourites but I'm definitely changing my charts because it's brilliant. And I think I've done my weekly-rambling-thing, for now XD

Okay, I think we're officially soulmates. I've got to second the cheers for the dead languages and the... less enthusiastic cheers for both maths and Dickens (never warmed to him, to say the least). Warren Zevon is beyond awesome, as is Danielle Rousseau - and she does leave an impression. Especially because she's a lot cooler than Jean-Jacques, who managed to combine naivete, a touch of pedantry, and just being an all-around nasty piece of work. Yay Danielle!

*Marries you.*

Oh how you make me happy when I hear Zevon praise ;) Never warmed to Dickens either. Hated 'Hard times' with all my heart though, I just want to finish one for the sake of it to be true... dead languages are definitely much more interesting than whatever has a number in it. And definitely agree with the JJ vs Danielle thing, she definitely is cooler and you described him exactly as I would.
