Finally, Paul Bettany will be in an adaptation of a quality piece of literature! I read on Rotten Tomatoes that he will be playing Lord Asriel in the adaptation of His Dark Materials. The article is here.
Speaking of movies, I finally caught Pirates on Monday. People, people, people, just because Peter Jackson made his movies reaaaaaally long doesn't mean you have to do the same. And in light of King Kong, Peter Jackson should probably save the long version for the extended cut. But besides its length, Pirates was a fun romp. And the new, scruffy Norrington? OMG, teh sexy! Lizzie, just hook up with him. Orlando is so very overrated. My mom and I caught The Break Up last night and it was a definite waste of money. For a so-called romantic comedy, there's no romance and less comedy - it's two people yelling at each other for two hours. Though it did make me want to visit Chicago.
Bookwise, I'm slowly making my way through Under the Black Flag. Next, I think I need to take a little fiction break, so I may try to track down Temeraire at the library.
