Mr Ripley and Other Things (like Lent and Valentine's)

[slumber]

So. Have seen The Talented Mr Ripley. So. *does not say anything* Everything's spoilery, so I hide them under cut. Clever, no? XD

OMG Jude Law dies a fourth of the way through and there is NO sign of him for the REST OF THE MOVIE! Ahflsjlajfljf I felt SO ripped off! And MATT DAMON! EURGH. He SO does not look at ALL like Jude Law how can people be STUPID enough to even THINK there is a RESEMBLANCE?

SHALLOWNESS ASIDE, though, that was slightly creepy and disturbing, but it was slashy too, so, oh well.

*attempts to come up with intelligent discussion involving the psychology of human identity and the theme of wish fulfilment*

RAR NOT ENOUGH JUDE I NEED ALFIE AND CLOSER!

*fails miserably*

Would you BELIEVE that I had NO CLUE that today was Ash Wednesday until Raphie told me she was going to diet fast? Hah! There goes Catholic education down the drain. :| I DID know it's the Chinese New Year, as all my proper Chinese friends (Am only one-fourth Chinese--Halfblood, in HP terms, lol) were off to dinners and whatever yesterday.

Hah. And here I thought it was just a funky Wednesday because I don't have to leave home early.

Oooh, and also! Much thanks to essawkward for inviting me to the group chat. XP I had little to no idea as to who the people in it were, but whee anyway! *g*

Valentine's angst is NIGH UPON US and already I've been cut from flists twice. REJECTION! *sobs* (Ahahaha, though, not really.)

I dun want to abstain from anything this Lenten season. *induuuuuulges*

How can you POSSIBLY be thinking of Jude Law when Tom and Peter were such a beautiful couple and then Tom killed him but Peter was all "Tom has someone who loves him" and waaah it was so beautifuuullll! *sniffles*

Whee, group chat. Glad you liked it, and sorry you didn't know anyone. I wish you could be on msn and know us all. *flail*

:D Naah, s'alright, I made some new friends! :P I knoooow, it's sucky. :\

[essawkward.livejournal.com]

New friends are always good! And basicall everyone I know is a super fantastic person (I'm so lucky) so... if you ever want more? :P

Yes, the Talented Mr Ripley shits me. Jude is brilliant in the parts he's in though, but Matt Damon - ick. I hate movies like that, where the protagonist is wholly unlikeable and then you still want them to get away with stuff because they're the protagonist. I hate feeling conflicted.

[slumber.livejournal.com]

*giggles* Yay for Jude, nay for Matt. Yes. Ahhh, I just sort of hated Matt Damon all the way through, and interjected my viewing pleasure with sudden bursts of "Dammit, aren't they flashing back to Jude Law yet?" (It was very sad that they never did.)

Fourthblood. :|

Hey, at least you're 1/4. I LOOK like Chinese (many people said so) and I'm not aware of any Chinese descendants.

*giggles* Really? Ahh well. :P

Tom/Peteromgitistehsex!

Isn't it creepy, though, that my last two boyfriends were named Tom and Peter... and Tom looks kinda like Matt Damon, and Peter looks like Jack Davenport? It was one of those lykewoahoooohHAWT moments for me.

Shutting up now.
