GIP! Meme!

[misscam]

Well, not only GIP. Am house-sitting for my parents, as well as watching the cat and the fish. I won't be on any IMs until late Sunday or Monday. E-mail me if you want anything (camilla.sandman at gmail dot com).

Planning to spend the time reading crapy romance novels and watch Discovery (which I don't have at home). Wheee!

To amuse yourself while you miss me terribly on IM (yeah, right), the movie meme. Basically, guess which movie the quote is from (and who said it), and I'll cross it off the list as they're guess. As an added bonus, the first to guess right can get a 100 word drabble from me. If you're really sick, you can even ask for more Bushlovepoetry.

10. No, this is the Valley. Finland is the capital of Norway. - Earth Girls Are Easy sekhmets_temple

11. What do we leave behind when we cross each frontier? Each moment seems split in two; melancholy for what was left behind and the excitement of entering a new land. - The Motorcycle Diaries pipibluestockin

12. Right. Goodness. Well, well. You know, being Prime Minister, I could just have him murdered. - Love Actually honorh

Hop to!

(And no, I didn't do any Lord of the Rings quotes - far too easy.)

ETA: And thus you had them all, you insane people. Claim your honours.

As I suspected... Oh! I have a crappy little icon I made you can use, if you like... shall I e-mail it to you?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Sure, if that's what you find easiest.

[siraj.livejournal.com]

Heh... Sent your way... If you want to bleach your eyes at the horridness, I'll understand perfectly.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Now that would take a lot.

[siraj.livejournal.com]

I used MS Paint to do it in...


Sure you have enough bleach for that?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

I read badfic on a semi-daily basis. I have enough bleach for the ages.

[siraj.livejournal.com]

... Good point.

[sekhmets-temple.livejournal.com]

Mmmm badfic. Delicious.

Erm, actually, I posted to say we can look these up? We don't have to soley rely on the dusty low-tech archives that are our brain cells (two in my case--cells that is, not brains)?

'Cause I found #1: Crocodile Hunter: Collision Course :D

[misscam.livejournal.com]

I have a sneaky suspecion some of the others have also been looked up, so I'll allow it. ;) Though you get to share it with Siraj, since you go the movie and she got the fella, and you posted within seconds of each other.

(David Wenham's in that one, too.)

[sekhmets-temple.livejournal.com]

David Wenham's in that one, too.

Yes, I know. I just haven't been brave enough to watch it. Steve Irwin kind of frightens me in the OMGWTF-are-you-doing-with-that-crazed/angry/poisonous-creature?! kind of way.

Kind of veering off on a tangent: I wish there was some way I could see the TV series "Sea Change" that Wenham was in.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

I quite like the OMGWTF-are-you-doing factor of Steve Irwin, really. Though I am waiting for Irwin Hunter: The Crocodile Revenge. David's oart is rather small in the movie, but he is playing very Aussie.

Mmm. Diver Dan. SeaChange is actually available on DVD in Australia, but of course, there is the zone issue. Though luckily not for me. Mmm, multizone player...

[sekhmets-temple.livejournal.com]

Grrrr...must get a region free player somehow.

The gap between release dates for DVDs around the world has narrowed significantly over the last few years so I really wonder why they had to implement this region 1, 2, 3, etc. crap. In some cases, especially between Britain and North America, the gap is non-existant.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Because they hate us all and want to make our lives pain, ever waiting for the ogling.

It is extremely annoying when some movies only get one or two region releases. Though of course in Norway, a case was actually won for us mortals being allowed to crack our DVDs and play them on whatever the heck equipment we want. Now if only we could make that universal and for zones too....

[siraj.livejournal.com]

There's Wenham in that movie?

... it was pretty lousy over here, I might just have to watch it, just for the Wenham then...

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Then you're really dedicated ;)

Ah Irwin, thou crackst me up.

[siraj.livejournal.com]

I'm just waiting for Irwin to get munched... one less idiot to kick in the balls.

And for Wenham, I'll put myself through torture, happily MSTing all the way to lessen the pain.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Or get drunk and then watch it.

[siraj.livejournal.com]

I DO have that 2/3 of a pint of Jack Daniels still sitting in the freezer... That'd make Irwin tolerable, at least... Or possibly entertaining.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Well, if he can amuse me, I'm sure he can amuse Drunk!You.

[siraj.livejournal.com]

I'm not so sure about that... every time I see him, much less hear his damn voice, it makes me want to beat him with a crowbar until he shuts up for good... I don't know what I'll do if I'm drunk and have to deal with the git.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

If you watch some of the Behind the Scenes stuff, he's actually behaving quite calmly and talking in a calm voice, which just utterly confused me. Normally, he speaks like a man with an exclamation mark at the end of each word. Crikey! What! A! Beaaa-uuty!

[siraj.livejournal.com]

That's exactly why I want to hit him with a crowbar... if he was at HFA, he'd cause a Punctuation Downpour in three seconds flat.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

If he was at HFA, he'd be grabbing fangirls by the legs and proclaimning how beautiful and dangerous they were.

[siraj.livejournal.com]

And getting bit too, probably...
