My thoughts on the matter…& she’s going away…
As a movie…Standing on it’s own (well not on it’s own, as you still need part 1 for part 2 to make sense in full)…It was a good movie.
As a movie, based on a book…It did the usual, and didn’t stay totally true to form (which is what we know happens & come to expect)…But didn’t do as bad a job as a lot of them have (and usually do).
The book was better…Which, honestly, is usually the case.
It was…The culmination of expectations meeting the actually of reality.
And…Where the bloody hell did my rat go? *looks around* Seriously…He was suppose to be there…They changed that part in the first one…And then…*poof*…Nothing? Seriously? WTF?
But as my wonderful Sissy pointed out…That just goes to prove that WE are right, and WE know what really happens, despite the fact that some (most) or what really happened has still been corrupted by book & movie. *nods*
And that is all I’m going to have to say on that matter for the moment.
In a related matter…*starts to poke William with sticks, then remembers that’s a bad idea and refrains from poking William with sticks*
And I do so hate writing that name & actually calling him that…Will have to remedy that shortly. Not his fault he was so unfortunately named by his mother…
I so totally lost my train of thought. O.o Bloody hell…
ANYWAY…There has been some upset to my storyline by said unfortunately named boy/man’s arrival…BUT…I am all of the fines with it…& I do apologize to him for saddling him with another piece of magical jewelry, as I do remember (or did remember afterwards anyway) how badly the last piece of magical jewelry he encountered and he got on in the end. *bites lip* Yeah…Hopefully all will be forgiven.
*le sigh*
*pokes @ Squirtel* She heads off for (or rather we drop her off at) camp tomorrow. She will be gone for three weeks…Three looooong weeks. It’s the second time she’s been ‘gone’ for three weeks…Though last year we had to go and get her for a night, as they didn’t have a hold over on the one week-end. So it was more like 2 weeks, & then another week…This will be a FULL three weeks.
Harley will get to see what it’s like to be an only child for three whole weeks…Hopefully I can keep him happy & entertained, and NOT on the computer the entire time.
We do have a trip down the river planned…Need to get him a life jacket yet…But then he, Mum & I are suppose to take my boat down the Jordan. I inflated my boat the other day to make sure it was still in good condition (as it wasn’t out at all last year).
So yeah…I’m thinking that is it for this entry…I am off…My Wasil has gone off to WallyWorld with his friend Jon…*shrugs*
Man, I so need to see what Micha is up to. *pokes at her with stick* She’s so difficult, though! Mostly cause her way of thinking is so different from mine…. & I’m sure you’ll think up good ways to keep the youngest critter entertained. (: *hugs*

Who is William? What happened with the last piece of magical jewellery he received? I hope your Sonja has fun at camp, and that Harley does get entertained by you… Maybe allow him a couple of hours on the computer at least that will give you some time to do whatever it is that you need to do.

RYN: Aha… I love Buffy – I have the whole series on DVD, and as soon as you mentioned Spike’s name, I was thinking of the piece of Jewellery he had to use in the final episode of the series. Didn’t he also appear in a lot of episodes of Angel as well (I have that series on DVD as well) – so… anyhew I’d like to see your writing sometime (I absolutely LOVED Spike! Uh – English accent = MELT!)<br> I’m glad to hear that Sonya has a few friends as her bunkmates it’ll make the time go all the much faster for her too. 🙂

I think it’s pretty impossible to translate books to film directly because of the different mediums…kind of like trying to directly translate languages. It’s just not the same. It was entertaining. And, yes, we can make needed corrections. 🙂 ♥
