"Damned isn't just a word."

Hey, hey guys! Things have been kind of crazy, what with colleging it up and trying to sort out a computer-switch. These coupled with the fact that I've caught some sort of hideous cough-plague has had me feeling generally blergh, so I am going to be making some posts about stuff that is awesome to cheer myself up. And eat chocmint biscuits. Om nom nom.

I am going to talk about Night Watch because it is ridiculous, and stylish, and Russian, and kind of half way between being really clever and really not. THUS IT IS YAY.* I mean, seriously, you guys, I can tell it isn't a great movie, really, too loaded down with plots and without quite enough confidence in its style, jumping from shot-to-shot, afraid to linger, but see this? This is me not caring.

It probably helps that I read the book. The plot would not have made any sense at all without that.

Cut for those of you who don't care, which is probably everybody. )

"Everyone out of the Twilight!"

So...

I might have read Night Watch and thought it was kind of cool.

And I might have picked up a copy of the movie for cheap.

And I might have taken a bazillion screens with VLC.

And I might have coincidentally downloaded GIMP.

And I...might have iconed. A bit. Kinda.

Er.

I am not very experienced, and I think it shows because I immediately hated every one of these after uploading them, but er. Here they are, anyway. )

...I go hide now.

ETA: And then I made some more, to satisfy my masochism! Two of them are from The Ghost With Black Fingers. Try and guess which ones!
