Gets Me Every Time...

Sara:
*blushes*

I'm not currently being beaten up with swords, no. I had training this morning and got hit on the elbow, but nothing serious. I am being careful ^_^;

Kei: I'm looking forward to it, whatever happens. A lot of people are complaining already that it may get stale, but considering the amount of time they'll have had to think about stuff while not working on the show, I think it's going to be pretty good. Like they often say on their commentaries, there's a lot they didn't get to do, and this'll give them a chance to flesh stuff out more. Perhaps some two-parters, or a bigger story arc?

John: Aha, I didn't choose that. T'was Dan's genius ^_^

Shin: I thought you'd be excited ^_^

And thank you ^_^

Ajeh: Ajeh! Where you been, dawg?



I went to see Over the Hedge this evening, and I must say that i really did enjoy it. The first 'U' classified film I've seen in years. And there is something about well-written, wholesome family films that warms your heart. Well, mine anyway. Cause I am a softie.

It got better as it went on, and although you could tell exactly how things were going to plan out you let yourself get dragged along by it anyway, because it's not meant to be taken as a serious piece of drama. And in some way I think I had a better reaction to it than when i went to see Tha DaVinci Code, because I was always looking at the story and the acting, and all sorts of things like that. Films where you can immerse yourself in their world are the better ones, I think. I think children's films achieve that better than almost any other genre.

Or maybe it's just me.

After a while I do tend to feel kind of depressed and lonely after watching a really heart-warming film, though. I'm not really sure why. I guess it's just the relationships they have there and the way everything works out... having to go back home and get on with proper stuff seems more than menial ^_^; But that's life.

Everything I read, or see, or every programme I see about writers makes me want to write my story more. Films inspire me (either through good, involvong storylines or crap ones where I can analyse what doesn't work), and programmes about writers make me jealous to the point where I want to rattle off my story just to spite them already being on TV for writing something I don't like.

And that's another reason for writing my books- I want to do it because I'm too fussy about other people's stories. Every plot point or character that seems out of place I want to re-write how I'd see it. It's a little... spoilt, I guess. But if it helps me get everything down and leads to an eventual publish then I won't complain. Then I can blow smoke out of the arses of the people who inspired me, heh.

I'm really looking forward to this holiday.
