Let's have a random post, shall we?
I saw Iron Man 2 last night and enjoyed it muchly, especially the scene near the end in the Japanese-style garden, with flying flower petals and mecha, LOL.
Today we went to see Robin Hood and all the haters can step to the left, because I thought the movie rocked! And while I am disturbingly prone to loving Ridley Scott movies, I think this one was just a very original retelling with spectacular fight scenes. There were little things that bothered me, like Russell Crowe in general (just not a fan), the fact that his Merry Men didn't have enough face time (IMHO), and the little issue of the entire English army never showing up at all, even though they were supposedly right behind Robin (or if they DID return, where were all the Nottingham men? Dead?). But these are little quibbles. Mostly, I love anything that includes medieval England, bone-crunching battle scenes, hot archers, and the Robin Hood myth. Mmmmhmmm. Two thumbs up.
Then, we came home and watched Walt Disney's Robin Hood, which was totally awesome, too.
I recently bought the Kitchen Princess manga and have been tearing through it. I love this sweet, sappy shit. Also, I am dying to try the cupcakes made with pancake mix in paper cups. I'll let you know how they turn out!
Work tomorrow. Yuck.
