Cemetery Junction - Ricky Gervais is a legend.

How to Train Your Dragon (in 3D) and Dear John. I agree with what Lise said about Amanda and Channing having amazing chemistry. But I also agree with the rest of what she said. Ugh! Might read the book, though - I saw it in a bookshop here the other day; although it's called 'Remember to Look at the Moon', or something, which threw me at first!

It's been beautiful, 25°c weather here recently, and then tonight it's poured with rain - complete with thunder and lightning!

Tra le nuvole (Up In The Air) and Amabili resti (The Lovely Bones). The first was really good, and actually had quite a lot of substance to it for a rom-com, but the second was the most harrowing thing I've ever seen. I cried all the way through. Weirdly, I'd still really recommend it, though, although I don't think it's out in England yet (and I have no idea why Italy got it first - odd!).

Really windy and rainy and, just, bleugh.

It's actually been really sunny today with lots of blue skies!

Blue skies = yay!

Sta nevicando! It's snowing - wooo! Although it means that my plans to go to Venice tomorrow are somewhat destroyed.

It's just overcast and rather non-descript, to be honest.

It's pretty overcast today, about 2°C and slightly windy. It's better than it has been, though.

Avatar in 3D. Seriously, it's amaaazing!

Absolutely freezing - I think it's about -5°C right about now.

Did You Hear About the Morgans? SO. GOOD. I want to go into witness relocation with Hugh Grant, damnit. I also want my parents to adopt a gorgeous Chinese baby and call her Rae, please. But I think I'll stear clear of the grizzly bears.

A Series of Unfortunate Events. I found it really disturbing. I dunno, I know the title somewhat gives away the fact that it's not exactly gonna be a barrel of laughs, but I did think there was something unnecessarily sadistic about the fact that the children's crazy uncle takes them on a trip and goes into a shop 'to buy nice things', leaving them locked in the car... ON A RAILWAY LINE, with a train about to arrive at any moment. Michael McIntyre's Hello, Wembley! is much more to my taste, though.

'Saw V'. Awful. Horrific. Traumatic. Scarring. Upsetting. And who put me through this? My boyfriend. What a lovely person he is.

Quando sei nato non puoi più nasconderti (Now That You're Born, You Can't Hide Anymore) for one of my Italian literature modules. It was about illegal immigrants (clandestini) in Italy, and it was actually rather good. And, it was also much less distressing than Roma, città aperta (Rome, Open City) with all of its wartime horrors.

Lesbian Vampire Killers - yes, it's as weird as it sounds...

It's STILL snowing and while this is pretty, and stuff, it makes it difficult for me to get out, and I'm boreddd.

Twilight.

Eli, I love you. There's no point me pointing out every single thing I like - the amount of quotes would prob'ly make the internetz crash. So I'll point out what I don't like - nothing. 'Cept maybe the lack of constant updates. Seriously, you're doing an amazing job; like other people have said, it would've been so easy to make any of them in the wrong, but I just feel for all of them and desperately hope that they can sort it all out so they're all happy. Pretty impossible, I know, but I can hope, right? xo

I saw it last night and loved it, too! I was kinda surprised it was only a 15 in the UK, though. Like, I know there was no horror/gore in it to justify making it an 18, but I did think that at times it was a bit, err, graphic? Very, very, VERY good, though. And yes, the Vera Wang dress = And also those blue Manolo Blahniks = I never caught the television show - I think I'm gonna have to buy the boxsets!

Solitaire! I used to love that game... And the flying cards bit at the end! Haha, bits of everyone's posts from years ago would all just be in a big mush of text. That would actually be quite cool to see, I think! But, seriously, I well wanna PM an Admin and be like, 'Is there a maximum number of posts a thread can hold (or, actually, a maximum number of posts you can quote in one post) before the system totally crashed?' Although, I reckon there's probably easier ways than that to make it crash, anyway...

So, I currently have a story whizzing around in my head that really wants to be written. Problem is, it's just a loooooot of dialogue between two characters, as far as I can see. There is one key event, but I just wanted people's opinions on fics that focus more on feelings. I'm sure it's the right direction to take it in - there's no other way to write it, imo - but I was just wondering if I should write it, given its stylistic nature. Thoughts?
