SQUEEE!

[neverwhere]

X2X2X2X2X2X2X2X2X2 IS FUCKING BRILLIANT!

*squeals excitedly* I won't give away any spoilers, because everyone deserves to be as surprised and incredibly happy as I was when they see it. I just want to let you all know that I had a enormous grin on my face from the moment it started, and it never left my face, that's how good I felt watching it. I had goosebumps and butterflies and wanted to leap up from my chair with rapturous applause. And of course you know what the best thing was -- NIGHTCRAWLER! Yesyesyes. I squeed and giggled and swooned like the sad fangirl I am, and I didn't care! He's just amaaazing. Mmmmm. :)

When it was over I honestly couldn't stop grinning, and I when I walked out of the cinema people kept staring at me because I was talking to myself, repeating over and over 'ohmygod that was so brilliant wow that was so brilliant'. *laughs* I felt like I was floating on air for at least an hour afterwards. Yes, it really is that good. Go see it now!


I also saw...Jerry Springer: The Opera. That's right. The opera. And it is mindblowingly good. It's a tragicomedy with a cast of 20 amazing singers, and great songs like 'What the fuck (what the fucking fuck?)'. 'Talk to the hand' and 'I just wanna poop my pants', to name but a few. It is actually a fantastic satire and is at times very poignant, giving a depth and inner life to the insane cast of characters that you never think about when you see them on tv. It's without a doubt the best show in London right now, I'm so glad I got to see it before I go. I picked up some badges in the National Theatre bookshop to wear with pride -- 'Jerry Jerry', 'Crack Whore', and my personal favourite, ' Chick With A Dick'. *lol* Although I'm not sure I'll ever actually wear that one. ;-)


In other news: Today at the optometrist the eye doctor asked me if was under 16, because 'I might need a parent's permission before having my eye test'. UNDER 16!? Dear god, that's a new one. I'm used to being mistaken for 18 or 19, but under 16?? I couldn't decide whether I wanted to hurl abuse at her or break down and cry. Instead I just looked (and felt) shocked, and said with all the politeness I could manage, that I was in fact *25*. Grrrr.
But at least I now have a brand new pair of ubergeeky glasses, which I like very much. Geek power! :D


Tomorrow I'm off to Collectormania with trianne, hjartad, sheldrake and lots of other LJ people. By my next entry, I'll have met (but sadly, not shagged) my BILLY! Wheee! :)

NIGHTCRAWLER. NIGHTCRAWLER. NIGHTCRAWLER.

X2X2X2X2X2X2X2X2

I <33 you, nevviekins.

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

*bounces with you* :D

*snugglesmooch*

[eyre-lasgalen.livejournal.com]

You saw it? EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Oh, I can't wait. I absolutely can't wait to see that film.

Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love ya, tomorrow. You're only a day awayyyyyyyyyyy!

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

It was released a day early in England, woohooo! *does the Happy Nevvie dance* :D

[eyre-lasgalen.livejournal.com]

Hey, I just realised that we both went to the optometrist today. Spooky Mulder-Moment.

Unfortunately, my specks aren't geeky, but are a little too cool and fashionable. I'm actually frightened. They're Gucci. Gucci! I'm seriously appalled that I bought designer frames, but I didn't buy them because they are designer, but because they are totally different and cool and look wicked on me. Stupid Gucci.

Don't tell, but with the special anti-reflection coating (helps when I'm looking at bright projection screens at school) they're going to cost $400!!!! I freaked. I can't believe it. I've never spent so much money on something like this for myself.

UGH!

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

The psychic link is still working I see! ;-)

Jerry Springer is kicking around the idea of running for US Senate. Since he's from Cincinnati, he's making nice to as many Ohioans as he can. He's giving a speech at some building on campus that I've never heard of next week, and he's going to be at a certain bar downtown being friendly before his speech. I hate bars and I'm not much on Jerry, but I might go just to see if he'll sing something from the opera if I promise to vote for him.

[meretia]

Oh, I forgot: I am dead jealous of you. I want to go to Collectormania. Have fun, you lucky thing! And be sure to give Billeh and Andy nice long shags kisses for me!

[sillypants.livejournal.com]

OMG, KURT *has fit*

I must see it again soon. Now!

*flirts outrageously with the moving pictures* :)

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

Flirt with meeee! *giggles*

There wasn't nearly enough tail action in the film. But still...*drools copiously*

*passes out*

:D

[amaterasu.livejournal.com]

*EEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!* Your icon! The Nightcrawler love! OhmyGodIcan'twaittoseethisfilm!!!!

I've heard outrageously good things about the Jerry Springer opera, but refused to believe the hype (mostly because I was afraid my boyfriend might try to drag me to go see it). Now I might not mind... I want to hear the "Fucking Fuck" song.

Give Billeh a kiss for all of us! ;)

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

*laughs*

Your boyfriend had the right idea -- you need to go! The opening number alone is worth the price ('My mom is now...my dad. Snip snip!'), and while it isn't an entirely coherent show, there are moments of pure, unmitigated brilliance. And the guy who plays Satan is really cute. *grins*

I love Nightcrawler. Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much. *happy sigh* :))

*&#()^ Optometrist

[sensefille.livejournal.com]

We just talked about this before! I know exactly how it feels to be mistaken for someone younger. One of the ones I'm still bitter about is when I went to see Shakespeare in Love when I was 17, and the woman was ready to turn me away point-blank. "I'm sorry, you have to be 17 or accomanied by an adult to see this." She didn't even ask for ID. Stupid people!

Re: *&#()^ Optometrist

[eyre-lasgalen.livejournal.com]

You couldn't get in to see Shakespeare in Love? Because of that little bit of nudity? (Gwenyth was nude if I recall correctly)

That's so unfair. But any kid can get in to see something ultra-violent. Alright, so perhaps I'm exagerating a little. Still, you can see worse on Fox.

*grins*

*pet-pets the fuzzy*

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

Looooooooooooook...





*dies*

[elwhispo.livejournal.com]

..........Jerry Springer? *dies*

that is too funny

[moogle-tey.livejournal.com]

Great! I can't wait to see X2 now!!!
*tackles Nevvie* give the Billeh a wink for me!
MWA!

[ladynemo.livejournal.com]

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! HE HAD A TAIL!!!!!!!!! THE EARS!!!!!!! THE ACCENT!!!!!!! Jsvo98jwpmwv'3[0we0cmA[-WQ=R9C0!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *scream of pure joy*

Yeah, I saw it too. I think I liked it.

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

*chuckles*

I never would have guessed. ;-)

Hee.

Taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiillllllll.

[ladynemo.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeah, and is it just me, or was the movie (especially the end) really really really slashy?

"Oh, no, Logan, what will we do now?"
"Oh, Scott, hold me!"
"Logan.. I.. I.."
"I know. I know."
*kissing noises*

Oh, yeeaaaaahh. I soo call pay-per-view rights on that one!

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

*LOL*

Noooooooooo that is so wrong! Nononononono. NO.

Wolverine has FAR too much taste to ever have anything to do with that anal retentive retard. (HATEHATEHATESCOTTHATE)
Although having said that, he does always fall for the tediousness that is Jean Grey. Thank GOD she'll be the Dark Phoenix in the next one, and therefore almost cool. ;-)

[deliciouspear.livejournal.com]

First off, I thought this entry was gonna be about me - what with my name being at the begining of it and all.

*GRIN*

Second of all, your icon gets me hot.

~Squee

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

You have no idea how much I want to pounce on Kurt and drag him off for some serious Nevvielovin'. OMGHESSOHOT. *fangirl burbling* :D

Guhh.

[sheldrake.livejournal.com]

met (but sadly, not shagged) my BILLY

Well, you don't know that for sure, do you...?

Oh Billy! Oh Alan! I'm just going to explode this weekend, I know it. Seeing X2 on Sunday; haven't even seen the first one yet! Have to fit in DVD watching session before then... Oh my! Anyway. See you tomorrow, with any luck!

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

I met youuuuuuuuu! *giggles*

*gives you a badge that says 'Piss Off, I'm Paparazzi'* :D

[nerdcakes.livejournal.com]

*bounces* ooh, I want to see the Jerry Springer opera so much! Curse my living miles away from London! Curse it!

I know nothing about nightcrawler except from what I've seen on X-Men:Evolution. But he does seem pretty darn cool *nods*

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

Kurt is soooooooooooooooooooo cute on Evo, isn't he? I would give anything for him to be real, so I could show him that he doesn't need to be ashamed of who he is, and love him forever and ever. Le sigh. *swoons happily* :)

In the comics (and film) he's very religious, but not preachy. But he's still very silly and the team's prankster, which is one of the reason's he's so popular. *G*

[jrivka.livejournal.com]

NEVIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HI :D

Hehehe I should be one of those people at the end of the show and say 'I came from London to LA to Chicago JUST TO SEE YOU JERRY! Sign my boobies!' *lmao* :D

[acinonyxjubatus.livejournal.com]

Geek. Is. Good.

*hic*

[felineparadox.livejournal.com]

Why is it i always seem to end commenting on your journals once everyone else has? i want to be the first one to...no, no i'm not going to say that, because that just sounds very rude.

Anyway, I was x-men2, too! it was great :)

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

Gogogogogo!

The second is SO much better. It'll blow you away. :)

[queeniefox.livejournal.com]

and great songs like 'What the fuck (what the fucking fuck?)'

I have to see this show!

At last, I know who Nightcrawler is! Very groovy teleporting shenanegans. He was very sweet too, for a blue tattooed mutant!

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

Teleporting is so sexy. BAMF! *giggles*

You must come and see Jerry Springer. It's playing until august, so you still have time, but you should book the tickets in advance, as it sells out every night. And don't forget to wear your 'Three Nipple Cousin Fucker' badge when you leave! *laughs* ;-)

[brandybuck.livejournal.com]

*squeals and dies*

NIGHTCRAWLER!

IN MY PANTS!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!

*dies*

*has definitely found her new fandom*

Icons! I need ICONS, damnit!

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

*laughs*

Once again you have the most amusing perspective on things. ;-)

Kurt can come (ooooh) in my pants ANYTIME. *licksnoggropeshag* *plays with his very agile tail* :D

[ashfae.livejournal.com]

I'm going to have Nightcrawler's babies.

No, really.

My friend Karen leaned over to me during those opening scenes to say, "Ash! He could have sex with both of us at the same time!!!"

Re:

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

*LMAO*

Don't get me started thinking about such things...*bibbles*


Nope.

Too late.

*dreamy sigh* ;-)
