Thank you everyone who replied about my dad, you all rock. He's doing fine considering what happened. He'll be off work for awhile and the doctors think there won't be any issues with his injuries. Something must be in the water this week because the day after dad got attacked another bus driver was verbally assaulted and the police had to get involved. Then today another bus driver was physically assaulted (he's from a different company that dad drives for), but still this is all so strange. All the assaulter's were different people, so it's not one guy doing all of this. Maybe people are grumpy because of the weather, all we've had is rain and more rain and the temperatures averaging about 12-20°C (53-68°F). Thankfully we're not back east, I heard it got to 50°C (122°F) with the humidity in Toronto; I can't even begin to imagine being in that type of heat.
NEW HOBBIT VIDEO BLOG! Just seeing so many of the old cast from LOTR made me so happy. GAH! Thanks for ruining my life again, PJ.

Serious, Cate Blanchett, STOP BEING SO FLAWLESS!!!!
I like how they dubbed Aidan the 'sexy dwarf' and all the others were making fun. While I find Aidan very attractive I'm still going to stan for Dean/Fili, he'll probably be my Orlando of these films, JUST WARNIN' YA.

Hobbit casting news
Apr. 30th, 2011 06:19 pmThranduil and the replacement Fili have both been cast...
Peter Jackson has posted a note on his Facebook page announcing the recast of Fili and the much-anticipated announcement of the actor playing Thranduil! Lee Pace will be playing the Elven King Thranduil and Dean O’Gorman will be playing Fili.
Um. Excuse me while I just freak the fuck out for the moment ( cut for a fucking lot of flailing, gifs and CAPS )
And, yeah, that's about it.
OH! Lee Pace as Thranduil... om nom nom. I like it. I was expecting them to cast someone a little older, but whatever, elves have crazy plastic surgery coverage anyway...

Of American Gods and Hobbits
Apr. 14th, 2011 09:57 pmAmerican Gods may be a mini series on HBO. HBO + Neil Gaiman (with possible Tom Hanks) = FUCKING AWESOME! A co-worker and I both love Neil Gaimen and we had discussed that one movie wouldn't do justice to the book but a mini series would be best. When I first read AG it quickly became one of my all time faves.
And, uh, this also happened today:
Just. Cannot. Words. I... omg this is really happening. x.x

Him as Leggy's dad? IDK how to feel about it; part of me is all 'LOLOLOLOLOLNO!' and another part of me is 'BRING IT!' The Doctor and Elves?
It's also 100% confirmed that Serena and Andy are back for the Hobbit. Yeah, if they weren't then I would be marching down to NZ and having a few wordsblows with PJ. Orlando's also supposedly to come back as well in a 2 minute cameo and rumour has it that they're also trying to get Dom back. And Elijah will be back as well (so I hear). Just reunite the whole cast, dammit, in one big separate movie. Have them drink tea, watch paint dry, I don't care, just make it happen!!!
Today at work I had two members from the Fringe crew come in for coffee. They were wearing Fringe Division jackets from the AU universe and I may have fangirleda lot ok, a ton a lot about this season and how much I love the show. They asked me about it moving to Fridays and how I think it'll fare, so I told them it could go either way, but that I think it could be a good move to free up more viewers for the show since 9pm on Thursdays is such a brutal timeslot. I really want one of those jackets. The dad of one of the guys I work with has a friend that is a PA on the show and gives the guy I work with props from the set, he told me he has a bunch of stuff from Walter's lab in his bedroom. I was jealous and I now plan to go break into his house and steal some stuff.

Gandalf goes to the World Cup
Jun. 25th, 2010 02:11 pmOk, If you haven't seen this yet then do yourself a favour and watch it now:
I've been playing it over and over again the past few days and I never get tired of it.
Also, it looks as if there may be a possibility forPJ God to direct 'The Hobbit'. UM, FUCKYESPLEASE!!!!

Just send my money directly to God
Apr. 15th, 2009 09:06 pmAlmost six years later (holy shit, six years?!?!?!) it comes as no real shock that God will still get my money. Although, this is just the theatrical cuts, I think I'd like to have the EE on blu-ray instead.
I'm going to echo a few people on my FL and say 'Don't judge a book by it's cover'. If you haven't watched this video of this 47 year old woman sing on Britain's Got Talent, you should. She has a beautiful voice and she deserves all the things that go with it. It does make me sad that society would automatically dismiss this woman solely based on her looks, but she does has this inner beauty and I'm glad that we got to see that. Talent just isn't in the "pretty" people.
Mum and I are moving in a couple of weeks and the anxiety attacks are already starting. Oh joy. I'm sure I'll be alright after I get through all this, but for the moment it's like omgsomuchtodowtfbbq?!?!?!

Andy Serkis is gonna be Gollum (again)!!! He's one of the guys they could never do the Hobbit without, so all I need is Sir Ian and I'm a happy camper.

Apr. 20th, 2008 02:49 pmI just randomly typed that subject line.
Does anyone know where I can get an online guide or a magazine/book that has the values of action figures, trading cards ect.? I want to sell some of the duplicates of my LOTR stuff because I have no room for them and I'm not sure if they'd be worth more than they are now or not.
Portfolio's are due. Well not today, but by Wednesday at the latest. Since I can't hand it in on Wednesday I have to hand it in tomorrow or Tuesday. *STRESS* I've got to get the last few pieces together and then actually finish one piece. I'm getting anxiety.

Hobbit Casting?
Dec. 26th, 2007 10:17 pmMTV has some thoughts on who should be cast in The Hobbit. Spoilers, obviously, if you haven't read the book (which you should, because it's wonderful).
You have no idea how much I would love to see Leggy back. Hell he could just sit in the background and I'd be one happy elf perv. But having David Bowie as his dad? LOL I'm sorry I'd probably be like 'Dude, David Bowie is Leggy's dad!' the whole time. Either than that I pretty much agree with all the names they've put out.
This movie hasn't even been written/filmed and I'm so effing excited. Brings me back to the old LOTR days. *sniff*

Subject Here
Dec. 18th, 2007 08:41 pmHobbit! Hobbit! Hobbit! Hobbit! Hobbit! Now that I've had some hours to digest that there will indeed be a Hobbit movie (plus one more!) I am now hell bent to see Sir Ian as Gandalf again. I mean you cannot have Gandalf without Sir Ian, it's just not right. I'm sure he'll be on board since PJ and Fran are producing.
TORN also post some speculation on what the sequel could be. If so maybe we'd get to see Elijah, Billeh, Dom, Viggo and Sean again? Oh, man that would just be... GAH! Words cannot describe. OR MAYBE BABY FRODO!!! EEEEE!!!1
I have some thank you's!
daizalicious, I got your card and it's very cute! Everyone looks awesome. I hope we're able to connect soon, I miss talking with you.
jenniferkaos, thank you and for the kind words! It was very sweet of you. :)
I'm confused. It said on my guide that NCIS was new tonight, so I got all excited, but I'm watching it and it's just the repeat of the season premiere. Zuh? I guess they changed the scheduling around with the strike and stuff.
Yesterday
gremmie_goo and I went on a major shopping spree. I'm basically done with everything now, I just have to wrap it all. Now I'm feeling the aftermath of my shopping and yeah, I'm just glad I get paid Friday (because I don't like being in my overdraft). Anyway, we had fun and we're going to try and get together to see Enchanted later in the week.
When Goo dropped me home we were met by Tigger and his brother, both with bells on. We tried to find out what the brother's name was, but he moved before we could look at his tag. After Goo left and when my mum got home she said that one of them followed her down the path, so I went out to say hi and it turned out it was the brother. I managed to get his tag and found out his name is Fluffy. Yep. Fluffy. I mean you hear about cats being named fluffy in movies and stories, but to actually see a cat named Fluffy is kinda... weird. LOL The poor guy! And he isn't even fluffy; he's short haired! I'm figuring that kids named them.

Uh, isn't the sequel LOTR? Maybe they'll just go more into what happened to Bilbo and such after Smaug.
MGM and New Line will co-finance and co-distribute two films, “The Hobbit” and a sequel to “The Hobbit.”

Clutter Bug
Jul. 10th, 2007 11:12 pmFor anyone know really knows mum and I you should know that' we're big clutter bugs. Like not just clutter here and there, clutter every freaking inch of this place. It's really quite depressing and it makes us just feel miserable. We're really hoping to rectify that. We have to give so much stuff away and I'm going to sell some of my LOTR stuff. I don't want to, but I need money and I have no room for it. I need to find a price guide for LOTR action figures and some other stuff. Or if anyone here is interested in some of the stuff let me know. I haven't gone through it yet, so I can't tell you exactly what I'm going to sell.
Anyway, to start this de-cluttering process I ripped apart my room yesterday and filled four garbage bags of my clothes and I have given them away. That's about half of my wardrobe. I've been buying lots of nicer clothes when I get gift cards for Christmas or my birthday, so those will last longer. I'll also be able to make more outfits out of them. The only problem is I'll have to try and stop my pyjama addiction, I cannot resist new pyjamas.
Today I sorted some of my books and magazines I want to keep and put them in boxes. London Drugs had some nice storage boxes on sale for $2.99 so I bought 6 and they all fit real nicely in my room.
The next part is going to be more difficult. I have to sort through my stuffed animals. Anyone who knows me know that I love my stuffed animals and I just hate to part with any, but I have no room. I'll just have to keep the ones I really love and have sentimental value.
I've finally started watching more of season two of Battlestar Galactica. I really love Starbuck, she just rocks my socks.
