Here are a few I’m looking forward to seeing this year:
Mamma Mia!
Have never seen the musical this looks like it’s based on but this actually looks kinda cool! Got the shock of my life to see no other than Lily Kane in the lead! *g*
Wanted
Morgan Freeman, Angelina Jolie with guns, and James McAvoy being hot. HELL YES.
10,000 BC
New one from Roland Emmerich. This actually looks really cool (mammoths FTW!) but now that I know Steven Strait is in the lead, I’m definitely seeing it!
Definitely, Maybe
Out of all of them, this is DEFINITELY the cutest and one I’d really like to see. Ryan Reynolds as a dad? D’awwww. And who’s the little cutie who plays his daughter? She looks familiar.
The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
UM HELLO. Yes of course I’m seeing this. Big duh factor. Plus we get some proper eye candy in the form of Ben Barnes - w00t!
Cassandra’s Dream
There’s only one thing you need to know about this - Ewan McGregor and Colin Farrell are in it. YES PLEASE.
Leatherheads
George Clooney and John Krasinski in a movie about American football. Looks hilarious.
Forbidden Kingdom
I’m not usually big on the martial arts movies but even I would seriously consider going and seeing a movie with both Jackie Chan AND Jet Li.
And last but CERTAINLY not least, the movie I am waiting for most eagerly, which is released about a fortnight before my birthday - YES!!!!!!
The Dark Knight
HELL FRIGGIN’ YES. Christopher Nolan, I freakin’ LOVE you, man. If the movie is half as good as the trailer makes it looks, I’m going to die a happy fangirling death.
I heard this on the radio this morning and laughed myself silly. (Note: It was actually MUCH funnier listening to the audio by itself because it sounds SO MUCH LIKE HIM. Heeeeee.)
…and I’m DONE. I’ve spent most of tonight transferring my photo album/gallery over from another domain to this one. Thank God I’m finally finished. I also updated a whole lot of photos that I hadn’t included previously (like the Kitty Hawk and lunar eclipse photos I posted here).
If anyone wants a squiz at any of them, you can access them here.
Now I’m going to bed before I start sneezing my head off again. I hate colds.
So I’d sort of been deluding myself with this AWESOME tour (with Trafalgar) I wanted to do next year but just had a feeling that it was going to be too expensive.
Well, today I applied for a loan to help pay for it. But not only that, also to consolidate my other debt and get rid of the damn credit card that’s been bloody dead weight I couldn’t get rid of.
The girl I spoke to with Suncorp was really lovely and very helpful (I’m so pleased I got her and not some other person!). I’ve been told my application has been sent to the Credit Department for checking because I SHOULD be able to service this loan even though my financials say I can’t (it’s this whole ‘being named on the lease where I rent’ thing. I only pay a third of the house rent but I’m liable for 100% as I’m named on the lease. I explained all this to her and she was more than understanding).
ANYWAY. Please please PLEASE cross your fingers that I get this loan approved. Not only would it mean an absolutely awesome trip but it would mean getting rid of my other debt and I’m not entirely sure which I’d be more happy about.
*is trying to think lots of positive thoughts at the credit dept*
