I should know better than to read death!fic. It makes me deeply unhappy when all should be fuzzy and bright. On the plus side it gives me an excuse to go and re-read all the happy fic again though, which has reminded me that I might not have recced annlarimer's Don't and idhenson's wonderful Five Other Uses Danny Butterman Found For His Notebook. I'm afraid of writing in this fandom because people are so good. It's fantastic.

There was a guy sitting next to me on the bus yesterday who ate an entire pack of Starbursts on the ten minute ride, one after the other. By the fifth or sixth one my teeth were hurting in sympathy because those things are sweet. It was hilarious in an oddly weird way. Maybe he was hungry.

Never go into HMV when there's a sale on DVDs. Picked up the MIB boxset and Bad Boys II, the latter proving my theory that Hot Fuzz will exponentially increase sales of Bad Boys II, Point Break and Cornettos. A bought Cornettos the day after we made her watch it; she said it'd given her cravings. Now I've bought one of the few - only? - cop genre films I own amongst over 100 DVDs, solely because of HF (that and it was only £3). Yet Simon said on the commentary that they had to write to everyone involved in the movies they showed in order to get permission to use them. Seems a lot of effort to go to when they're providing free publicity anyway.

Speaking of The Pegg, I just got Big Nothing as part of my free trail of Amazon DVD rental, so I'm off to watch that with Miko. Not expecting much but hey, Simon Pegg. For free. I'm not going to say no.

I sadly saw Bad Boys II in the cinema. It is tripe. Well filmed tripe, but tripe none the less. Point Break is ... well it's odd.

I don't know. It didn't hold my attention all the way through but it had its entertaining moments. Though being able to check LJ during the boring parts probably helped; I think I'd have been bored senseless in the cinema.

I'm not in a hurry to see Point Break. Keanu Reeves 'acting' is low on my list of tolerances, so I'm waiting until there's some way of me seeing it without having to pay for it.
