My 'still in the plastic' list of movies for tjournal

[linden_jay]

I have a... well, I don't know if it's a good habit or a bad habit, but if a movie is recced strongly enough for me by people I trust and I find it for a really good price, chances are I'm going to buy it, even if I've never seen it before. But sometimes even if they're sitting on my shelf, it takes me forever to actually just sit my ass down and watch them, so... this is my list of movies/TV shows that are actually in my house, and the boxes still have the plastic on them.

Hey--I finally believed that you weren't making up the part about him singing, so that's something, isn't it?

I can't remember--did you see the new James Bond movie? Yes, I'm tangenting all over the place today... it's me, you should be used to it by now.

[lady-adrian.livejournal.com]

Hun, I'm so hyped I can actually keep up with you!

But no, haven't seen it. Any good?

[linden-jay.livejournal.com]

See? Sleep deprivation=easier Jayspeak translation! There's no bad here!

Actually, it was awesome, and I'm not typically a Bond fan. Like... I've nothing against him/them or anything, I'm just not like whooo Bond! I saw Goldeneye, thought it was cool, then skipped the rest of the Brosnon films.

But yeah, it was good and fun and had me peeking through my hands, and Daniel Craig makes an awesome Bond. He's not someone you look at and go 'damn, HOT!', but when he's got the accent working with the attitude and the body and all? Damn. Sexy. Plus, it's the most recent movie I've seen in theatre since Pirates.

Cool...maybe will see it when it comes out on DVD. I wasn't a big fan of Bond, to be honest...I mean, I saw Goldeneye too (obvious reason, there), but apart from that, not interested.

[linden-jay.livejournal.com]

Yeah-- like, I'd recommend it just as a good movie in general, not just as a Bond movie, which I was pretty pleased with.

And yeah, Goldeneye... mmm. Bean.

[lady-adrian.livejournal.com]

Yeh....lotsa Bean. Bad Bean. :D

*grins* I'm mean. Sibling just woke up and I called her an old hag (well, she called me grandma). She could tell I hadn't slept.

[linden-jay.livejournal.com]

Bean with pretty SCARS! Mmm...

You are mean. Poor thing, getting all old and stuff and you're taunting her. Crazy not sleeping girl.

Hey, I'm older! Just wait til I find the eggs....:D

And OMG Icon!Love.

[linden-jay.livejournal.com]

Isn't it awesome? I giggle every time at that one.

You're not supposed to turn your sister into a meringue on her birthday!

[lady-adrian.livejournal.com]

That never stopped her doing it to me! *pout*

Besides, I think she ate all the eggs.
