  Well, this weekend is going to be busy. With TFMrs working late on Friday, we have to fit in the following into two days: *See the vicar and reception people to agree on hymns, reading and fodder. *Watch Leeds vs Portsmouth at 11.30am, Sunday *See Kill Bill Vol. 2 I rented KBV1 last night to remind myself of the story and such before I see the second half, and fuck me, it's still absolutely awesome.
There are just so many little bits I had forgotten that I loved, like GoGo's little wave and "Hi! " before she kicks The Bride's arse. = Few things in the news and stuff which sort of interest me. Bollocks to you if they don't interest you. *Michael Jackson's going to court, baby! Let's face it, as unpleasant as the allegations are and as tired as we are of the stories, there is a certain curiosity that will make us watch this, if it does get shown on television (MJ's lawyers want to block it).
We are going to get a view of some of the strange goings on that happened in Jackson's life and just what life at Neverland is like. Hell, we may even get to find out what the "identifiable mark" on his cock is (by the way, notice that's at least two famous people with ****s on their ****s. Has everyone's got something indentifiable?
Could someone pick mine out in a line up?). *A Take That reunion, eh? Bollocks. Doesn't it show a desperate time for the music industry that the biggest stories in British music news are rumours of a boyband and a girl band who split up nearly ten and five years ago respectively? Is the world really crying out for the return of Jason Orange and Howard Donald to the stage? And if it does occur, is this Robbie admitting that he'll have problems keeping up his end of the EMI deal (Didn't the silly tosser realise when he screamed "I'm rich beyond my wildest dreams! ", it was essentially a loan that had to be paid back? ) and that his dream of conquering the US is never going to happen? *A comic book adaptation that has me worried - The Watchmen. After years of rumours and cancelled productions, it has been given the go ahead. While I do own a few 'graphic novels', I'm not the biggest comic fan boy. However, The Watchmen is genius.
Set in the Cold War, it's an examination of the psyche needed to be a superhero and the responsibilities that come with power when trying to "save the world". It's complex and deep, with several undercurrents that it takes a couple of reads to notice. And now, Hollywood want to cash in on it. Considering the last Alan Moore book turned into a film, League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen was essentially rewritten to become a Sean Connery action vehicle, you have to wonder how they would do this.
The main problem is that to include anywhere near the amount of story for it to work, the film will be over four hours long. The only hope I have is that two names keep being mentioned - Terry Gilliam to direct and Robert De Niro to play The Comedian, a disillusioned, old, right-wing superhero. Right, I have to keep up the pretense of work, so off I go. In the meantime, here's a picture of a squox and a squino (yesterday was declared Squirell Shopping Wednesday on b3ta). = And as I write, another Front Page! This one is really undeserved - a picture based on the story that a US channel was going to show pictures of Diana from the car crash. I think I must have joined a clique or something!
