All Shall Love Me and Despair

Spent most of today in bed - every time I thought to get up I dozed off again. I did get up around noon to eat a bite and download my e-mail. Will have some tea now and try to come up with the energy to make dinner. Maybe I'll stick to yoghurt and stuff like that.

Just checked the Swiss cinema release date listing and omg Everything is Illuminated is listed for 14 February - same day as Brokeback Mountain! Guess I'll have to find a cinema in Zurich that plays them on the same day and preferrably in the afternoon! And imagine how surprised I was to see that On a Clear Day is listed for release on 22 December?! I doubt I'll get to see it though, as I probably won't get to Zurich before the new year. Rats.

Speaking of films, I saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on the flight to LA, which was good - I like the dark humour. On the way to Auckland the plane didn't have individiual screens and I decided to forego Dukes of Hazzard... *shudder* On the flight from Auckland to LA foxykc and I watched The World's Fastest Indian, and then The Island, which was better than expected - but then as KC said, how can you go wrong with a film that has both Ewan McGregor and Sean Bean in it? ;) On the flight from LA to Zurich, I watched a documentary about George Michael - seems to be a very recent one as it chronicles events up to 2004, and it was quite interesting.

ETA: Good grief, how could I forget to mention: In NZ we also saw Narnia which was good but certainly nowhere near the same league as LOTR, and King Kong. Which IMNSHO is a 3-hour "OH.MY.GOD." moment! Seriously, GO SEE IT! PJ certainly has outdone himself. It's amazing, and what a ride! There are a few scenes where some people may have to shut their eyes but omg the film is very much worth sitting through them! GO SEE IT!!! The 8th wonder of the world indeed...

Well, I better go make my tea...
