beckymonsterI had a user from hell today at work.
Don't get me wrong, if they show that they've made an effort to try things for themselves - be happy to cover the same thing again and again until I'm this colour.
Even so, if it's obvious after a 40 minute interview that you're a) not taking it in, b) we're only half way through and (most importantly) c) you haven't even TRIED to do what's required on your own but are getting ME to do the work for you....
You Are On Your Own Sunshine.
Still, my X-Men: First Class DVD was waiting for me when I came home - so my equilibrium has been restored.

Useful Fannish (and other sorts) Links that are Useful
The Guardian Newspaper visits Aardman Studios and peeks behind the scenes at their next (but one) film 'Pirates! An Adventure with Scientists!' Well worth a read if you are fans of Wallace And Gromit etal.
For his 25th year as a Choreographer, Matthew Bourne will be creating a new version of 'Sleeping Beauty' with 'vampiric' overtones. Also, Sadlers Wells will be putting on a retrospective of his work. WANT!!

yuletide just about to start up again, a handy dandy guide to taking part (clue - it's easier than you think!).
For the record - I'm going to ask for the following:
Nolanverse Batman (2005-)
Jane Eyre (book) - although I reserve the right to use this casting as reference. 'M just saying!
Sunshine (2007)
And either Warrior (2011) or RocknRolla (2008). See what is nominated and see what I feel like at the time.
Something I thought (and most people reading this, most likely will think the same way) I'd never say Can I be Keria Knightley pls?
This is a couple of days late but I still wanted to comment - More details of Joss Whedon's take on 'Much Ado About Nothing' including that it 'should' appear on the festival circuit Spring next year - which *may* mean that it might make an appearance at the Edinburgh Film Festival (June/July)?
After all, the BDM bowed there in 2005 (I know this, because I was there!)

So, that's me - How are you guys?
