hathycol | Troy

For the poor buggars that have been subjected to Troy, go here. You need this in your life. It's nearly as good as the genius that brought to NUMENOR: Sploosh.

Paris is practicing archery on a nice straw man nailed up to the wall. He hits bull's-eye after bull's-eye.

HELEN: Wow, I had no idea you were so good at this.

PARIS: Neither did I. Weird, isn’t it? And I really want lembas now.

HELEN: What?

Hee.

I didn't like the film, actually. I just couldn't engage with any of the characters. Nor learn their names, actually. It was just... bleugh. They couldn't make up their reminds whether they were to villify or heroicise (is that a word?) the Greeks, which just didn't work. Achilles was a tit, by the way, and was also having hot and sweaty sex with him at every opportunity. Temple Bird (she had a name?) was only there because Achilles was pissed off at his cousin. I'm convinced. Greek-King-Dude was just, quite simply, Stryker all over again. Beaneh (Odysseus?)was the best of the lot, even if he gave up on any form of accent and nearly ended up turning around and going "Ee by gum..."

Paris (I can remember, pronounce and spell that name!) was a tit as well. Hector (yay for the Trojans!) was somewhat likeable.

Helen... was not as attractive as she should have been.

On that topic, actually, I have a complaint. There were too many naked men. Naked Elves are good. Vampires are probably good too. But oh NO, they had to be muscly men, which just make me think "Well, I'm glad I'm on my side of the fence." Why no naked women? That's discrimination, I'm convinced.

The whole film was just dull. I was not interested whatsoever.

The rest of the evening was pleasent enough, arsing around Ormskirk with Simon out of a lack of anything better to do. Oh, my life.

And now I'm revising like a demon in preparation for politics. Could someone explain to me why I still don't have any notes on AMS? STV I have now got sorted, but I know nothing about AMS. Speaking of politics, my CDROM of the powerpoints has just turned up. Ah, technology. Fingers crossed for AMS stuff...

I may actually watch them now just to see if it works.

So lazy. But then, I have a three hour shift at work to look forward too. Woot.

(Want my Interview With The Vampire DVD. Now. Right now. Want my ROTK DVD too. NOW. Will go Theoden on collective arses if both films have not been viewed by the end of the weekend.)
