Wooohooo! Finally saw Spiderman on friday (finally? It just came out in the UK! *laughs* I guess it just seems like a long wait...;- ) and absolutely LOVED it. I had no idea it would be so enjoyable - not just fantastic fun but enjoyable because the characters weren't just the normal two-dimensional action film puppets, but complecated people with real problems and neuroses and flaws. Well, as complecated as you can get in this sort of film anyway. ;- ) Everyone should go see it! Go now!
Went shopping with Eyre and Kara on saturday, and Kara finally found a beautiful autograph of her beloved Alan Rickman (on a lovely photo of him as Snape at the Halloween Feast) which made her a very happy bunny. I bought some kitchen supplies and a fabulous Ravenclaw banner (finally some Harry Potter merchandise for the other Houses! There are 3 other Houses besides Gryffindor y'know!) which I will hang above my computer. Go Ravenclaw! *cheers*
Today I met more Ravenclaws from Hogwarts Online - Chris, aka Professor Argumentus, whom I had seen once before (we saw a play of The Hobbit together) and Professor Laffengraff, Head of Ravenclaw, who is in London for a visit. Eyre, Kara and I met them in Leicester Square and did a bit of walking around sightseeing and things, but mostly just talked and had fun being together. I had a great day with them, I hope they had fun with me, even though I had extreme hypermode engaged. *laughs* I know I'm quite a happy, bouncey person, but I wish I didn't get so OTT when I meet new people. Well, its either that or become extremely shy and quiet and don't say a word...I don't know which is worse sometimes. Anyway. :) Today was fun. :)
I'm listening right now to a cd by The Tolkien Ensemble, a brilliant classically trained company of musicans and opera singers from Denmark who have set Tolkien's poetry to music. I can't believe they aren't well known in LOTR fandom, they're fantastic - I wouldn't assume that Tolkien fans would be afraid of classical music, but that's the only reason I can think of for why the Ensemble aren't famous and why every Tolkien fan doesn't have their albums. They even make Tom Bomadil's song interesting. *chuckles* (It helps that the soprano who sings Goldberry has a stunningly beauitful voice. ;- )
Goodnight Nevviefans! : )
