BLIZZARD, and also BLIZZARD. and pollspam

[cimorene]

Hey, also, I don't think I mentioned that it's basically been snowing for over 24 hours here, and for most of the middle of the day it was snowing like sideways in that "window/balcony is solid white" sort of way. But at no time during the blizzard has it been above freezing. It wasn't even sticking till noon or so but finally the sheer mass of snow just built up so it couldn't melt fast enough. OH YOU CRAZY WEATHER. I need a tag for "crazy fucking weather" or possibly "LOL global climate change" or something to that effect.

Meanwhile Veronica Mars is in severe danger of cancellation, or alternatively of s4 skipping 4 years into the future with her as an FBI agent.

And here are the movie posters and a ton of high-res stills from Becoming Jane (Jane Austen biopic starring Anne Hathaway) and they're gorgeous and I'm getting excited. Also, 4 stars from Empire and a very promising review. Yay! Time to make icons! In honour of that, and of my convincing aeslis to read Austen for the first time evah, a poll.

It snowed here today! Well, it rained and then snowed, so sadly none of it stuck. I felt really bizarre, walking to the tram with my umbrella and seeing all the white flakes swirling around me.

I am so excited about Becoming Jane. I'm actually starting to really like Anne Hathaway now that's she's ditched her Disney contract. I bought The Devil Wears Prada a few days ago and it looks set to become my new favourite comfort after a bad day film. I have the biggest crush on Miranda!Meryl Streep, ever.

Also, uh, the fic is coming to you. I swear. I got very angsty about it last night and spent today rewriting bits and trying to resist the urge to dump it in the trash and start over in a very limited space of time. :|

Yank playing Austen?

You left out option F: "I don't give a damn, because these kind of films don't interest me in the slightest". Srsly.

Also, Jane Austen is overrated. As a matter of fact, to is Maggie Gyllenhaal. And Veronica Mars. The only thing not overrated in this poll is Toll House cookies, because Toll House cookies clearly rule.

You know, I actually don't think I've ever read anything by Jane Austen come to think of it. It seems like I should have at some point, but while those titles all ring a bell (and I've seen one film of Emma, the one with Ewan in it), I actually have no idea what they're about.

As for cookies, my current favorite is made with peanut butter m&ms. That way you get yummy peanut butter, some chocolate, and the crunchy candy shell as well. In fact, I think I may have to go to the store tonight and get some peanut butter m&ms...
