I`m gonna watch Wallander for the first time.  The British Wallander, mostly because of a certain someone.  I`ll try to marathon through the three first episodes in a row. It’s my first time (though I have seen & read the Swedish ones long ago) and I shall of course live-blog in between the intermittent screams of excitement and yawns of boredom that I can currently foretell.  Gird your loins, for there will be ladyboners all over the place!

But not just yet, I`ll rather make one big post than several little tidbits of repetitive squealing and descriptive clawing at the screen.

supposed to be sleepy now but

Die Hard was on TV and I don’t know what happened

I just downloaded a program called Dark Room, so that I won’t be bothered by a bright white background in my eyes while I`m noting jotting down whatever.

Plus, now I can live-blog my movies without  closing or opening the windows because of the very annoying light-issues!  Yay~

“I DETEST cephalopods!!”

I just finished watching Peter Pan 2: Return to Never Land…

And gosh darnit, I really liked this movie!

How can this be?  How is it that I enjoyed a friggin’ sequel  to a classic Disney movie??  I didn’t even like the original!  (What I can remember of it, that is..)   It was all rather odd, and though I can rightfully blame my current PMSing for the welling tears of emotion, I think my enjoyment was actually more because of being able to relate to a character.  Y’know, that is really what most of the movies go for.  They want you to relate to a character, because it makes it more realistic.  But in my case,  I could never really relate to any of the flimsy princesses and daring heroes.  I thought for a while that I was like Belle, but upon further inspection I soon realized that we actually have nothing in common, except for both being brainy book-a-holics.  She wants adventures in the Great Wide Somewhere (and she wants it more that she can tell!), while I am perfectly happy staying at home, thank you very much!

Well, anywho, I liked it.  It might be because of the wannabe cool grownup girl, and it might be because of the slapstick humor, or it might be because of the not-so-subtly Disney-fied deaths and locusts.   It was all really weird.

I was supposed to write something interesting here…

How Tron: Legacy is affecting my life this week:

I want to make my own, glowing clothes.  I desperately WANT several of Jeff Bridges’ awesome costumes from Tr2n, and I`m willing to take out a year of education to be taught the process.  No, seriously!  I`ve been studying the techniques behind the awesome Tron Bags for days now, slapping myself repeatedly for not paying more attention in Tech-class when I was 15, and debating whether or not my wallet can handle the stress.  Also, I`m slightly depressed about not knowing about Tron Lines when I started this year of school.  If I had, my sewing project would NOT have been the red mess it is now.  It would’ve been made of AWESOME!

Oppdatering for dagen idag:

Søsken-besøk.

Alle fire søstre (inkl.meg) pluss mamma var her hos farmor.  Med barn.  Stress.

Kort pause + middag.   Sliten og i veldig dårlig humør.

Dro på kino med Christian.  (Han som ga meg Harry Potter-arret i panna mi.)

Så Avatar i 3D.   Litt skuffet.  Veldig awesome.

Ble kjeftet på av fyr fra en leilighet utafor.  Vi aner fortsatt ikke hvorfor.  Scary.

Sliten nå, men hyper på Mentos-sukker.  Vil sove.  Trenger å løpe.

Tangled

Wohoo! This one looks hilarious!

Easy A

I need to watch this one. o.o

Been waiting for months..

Rango

This one looks funneh!  Deppish!

The Last Airbender

I`m not even a fan of the franchise (or Shamalaiaman) but I WANT this!

What does Ledger, Depp, Law, Farrell and Tom Waits all have in common?

.

The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus!

So, here’s to the weirdest movie I`ve ever seen!  Out-weirding Alice in Wonderland, Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas, AND MirrorMask!  In fact, it contained elements from all of those, and then some!

If that trio of trippin’ movies I just compared it to did not tip you off, it was a friggin weird movie of epic proportions.

And the actors!  Oooooh my word, the actors in this movie!  Ledger, Depp, Law and Farrell, all playing the same guy!  Can you even imagine anything like that?  I sure as heck couldn’t, before today!  But damnit, if they didn’t all rock the socks right off of my now sockless feet!

On another note:  Whatever you do, do NOT watch this movie within a month of watching The Dark Knight!  I saw TDK last week, and Ledger’s performance in that movie is not one to forget so easily.  Although he is a completely different character here, I could not help but to draw parallels to the Joker, which is a very VERY bad thing.  Because the Joker scares me.  But Ledger being Ledger, his voice had a tendency to be kind of similar to.. his own voice.   Naturally.

It took me awhile to get used to the LSD movie, but everything started picking up after Depp’s (only, and rather short) scene.  When Law did his scene, I could only compare his characterization to the one in Sherlock Holmes (which I have also watched again this week).    And Farrell… well…. Phone Booth.

Not to forget Tom Waits!  Oh my GAWD, what a performance he delivers!  Truly, I can see no one but him in this role.

Day 09 – A song you  can WILL dance to

David Bowie – Magic Dance

Hurr hurr, self-explanatory song is self-explanatory.

Video, however, is not self-explanatory.  Explanation here!

:D

This perfectly illustrating picture of fangirl awesomeness will only make sense to fellow fans of said awesomeness.

..Or those who saw the whole video in the second link.

Så du ikke traileren, eller??

.

Har det seg virkelig sånn at 9 av 10 som ser en film på kino IKKE har sett traileren på filmen de ser på først??  Hva er greia med at de blir like sjokkerte hver gang øksemannen hopper ut fra bak den døra, enda de BURDE huske at det var AKKURAT den samme døra som han brukte i traileren?!  Og hvorfor brå-ler de av en setning de nesten helt sikkert har hørt før, som om den er helt ny for dem?   Ja, ja, det er greit og veldig FINT at folk har det hyggelig og opplever kinofilmen som noe helt nytt og spennende, men er det bare meg som sitter igjen i stolen og tenker  “Men jeg har jo sett alt dette før!  Ingenting er nytt!”

Det är vackert..

.

Jeg har funnet årets musikk. Igjen.  Jeg har funnet en helt ny gruppe musikk å høre på, en helt (for meg) ny kompositör, en helt ny…  Skönhet..   Ock det är vackert.  Det är underbart.

.

Det er også ubeskrivelig, så jeg tror jeg bare vil anbefale dere ALLE å finne mannen ved navn Clint Mansell og høre på musikken hans!

Selv bruker jeg Spotify.

Fantastic fantasies..

.

If you ever decide to write a book, make sure you incorporate EVERYTHING people love into it, even what they’ve already read in countless other books!   I am talking of Fantasies, people!

.

For example:   Eragon!

You take an untrained Link from Zelda, and make him into a blond Harry Potter living in something like the Old Days.  Then you take the Daemons from Philip Pullman and turn them into dragons.  Then you make monsters a la Robert Jordan, and a Dark Lord a la Tolkien, and also mix in a Niklaren/Dumbledore/Numair kind of mentor with a past (which also includes swords), and make sure to bring in elves as well!

Oh, and the mentor DIES.  Make sure to bury him in an AWSOME tomb!  As the hero levels up, so does the enemy.  Why this suddenly happens at the same rate is never explained.  Mix in some clever wittiness to cover up poorly written character development, and kill off a few good guys to make the baddies look even baddier.

.

If all else fails, make SPARKLEPIRES!!  Cuz EVERYONE loves those glittering teenagers with temperamental problems and bad eating habits who watch you sleep for months and then leaves you to die of grief and then goes suicidal themselves because they left you, right?

Right.

.

I love Eragon.  It`s unoriginal, like all other Fantasies, but I love it.

Iron Man 2 (x 2)

BOOM BABY!! (Yet again..)

I just got home from watching  Iron Man 2 in the cinemas for the second time this week! It is still made of awesome.

.

Sooo yeah.  I went and watched it again.   This is the only movie (exept HP5)  that I`ve ever seen twice in the cinemas.  I kinda had to, because my friend Chrash was in the military and couldn’t see the première with me, and since he`s kinda the only Marvel-fan-friend I`ve got, it was a neccessity to go see it with him.  Too bad the rest of the audience was even lamer today than last time.  That was a downer.

But this movie Iron Man is still EPIC WIN.

Iron Man 2

FAKK JESS!

I`m just home from watching  Iron Man 2 (the première)..

My reaction?

BOOM BABY!!

.

Oh dear, this movie did not dissapoint!  I`ve been drooling over this beauty since I first saw the trailer (which, incidentally, was on the PDS) and started anticipating the awesomeness that is Downey Jr. returning as the snappy genius!  (He does very well with snappy genius!)

Kick-Ass

.

Akkurat kommet hjem fra Kick-Ass på kino.

IT WAS SO MUCH AWESOME!!

Homigosh, it was such a kick-ass movie,  pun very much intended!

.

Okay, så jeg kom akkurat hjem fra kinoen..   Dette er den første filmen jeg har sett alene på kino, men ettersom jeg ikke har noen venner igjen som faktisk liker denne typen filmer  (bortsett fra dumme Chrash, menhanerimilitæretellernoedrittogkunneikkekommetilHorten)  så ble det en litt mer ensom kveld.  Noen ungdommer foran og bak, bare.

.

Det er en liten ting..  Hovedpersonen skal være smånerdete comic book-fan, en taper-type som representerer mesteparten av oss nerder i verden som bor bak en PC-skjerm og driter oss ut omtrent daglig.  So why did the guy have such a good fysionomy, such clean skin, such an obvious cute look underneath all the nerdy-makeup? Because that`s what it is; makeup.  They had to get someone who could do this kinda awesome role, and still look kinda normal while doing it.

Well, they nailed it.   (Exept for the really clean skin. That bugs me.)

And he`s CUTE!   Omghe’ssocute..

Crunchy-week!

.

Åkei, så er det kino-uke igjen.  Den delen av måneden når (NÅR!) det er så mange nye filmer på èn gang at det blir latterlig mye kino-gåing.  Ja, jeg kaller det latterlig mye.  Bare for et par år siden, så var mine kino-besøk sjeldnere enn to ganger i året!  Nå, derimot, så er det mer enn to ganger i måneden.  Det virker kanskje ikke så mye, men det føles rart når (NÅR!) filmene nesten hver gang kommer samme uka.

.

Woops, der datt jeg ut at hva jeg holdt på å skrive..  Jeg kom over en ikkesågammel rockesang jeg hadde dilla på i fjortis HarryPotter-tida, og ble umiddelbart fjortis i huet..  OOOH, de spiller på sekkepiper!  ..eller er det en støvsuger?  Jeg er jommen ikke sikker..

Anywho!

Planen så langt:

Kick-Ass idag,  Iron Man 2 imorra.

Woop de doo!!!

My daily shot..

..of fangirling.

Okay, guys..  I know most of my readers have little or no interest in & on the subjects I mostly fangirl on, so I`ll spare you the gory details.

Let`s get down to some boring basics:  I`ve been using all night/morning on watching the (absolutely weird and simply mesmerizing) movie Mesmer (from 19 90-something-or-other) and indulging my fangirling self with some lethally high doses of hormonal goo.  I don`t think I`ll be able to sleep at all now right now.  (And even if I am, the real morning is going to be deadly hard to deal with anyhow.)

.

Gah, my stomach is kind of aching.  This always happens when I forget the time in the morning!   And now it`s getting really light outside..

Dagens film.

I loved it.  But not as much as I`d hoped.  It did not flow as expected.

I need to see it in cinemas.  Preferably in 3D.

It`s only forever!

Oh darn, is it 06.00 am already??   How did that happen?

.

Åååhåhåhå, klokka er bare seks om morran, det er da ikkeno! Ihvertfall er det ikkeno nytt, ettersom det er nøyaktig det samme som har hendt hele den siste uka.  Hvorfor er det alltid slik at jeg finner de beste godbitene midt på natta når jeg egentlig skulle ha sovet?

Murphy`s Law, I say!

.

Play this song on full volume for a *taste* of what I`m listening to this very moment, dancing and lipsynching wildly while lying on mah belly trying to write a blog at the same time!   It is fun with Bowie-Gospel!

.

I`ve been avidly studying watching  ‘The Making of Labyrinth’ most of the morning, keeping me wide awake.  (Ya know, that favourite movie of mine from good ol’ 86?)  I tell you, it`s just not healthy to fangirl-giggle so much too early in the morning!   My jaws hurt…   But hey!

Totally worth it!

(And to think that I did not find the guy (without The Wig) even remotely attractive once upon a time!  Gosh, my sadly ignorant teen-aged years!)
