woohoooooo i just ate a bunch of cinnamon on an apple. So. If any hives pop up tomorrow, WE WILL HAVE A CULPRIT.

It will still be very sad. But at least I'll have a good idea of what it is.

Just wated Zero Effect which is vaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaguely based on Scandal in Bohemia. If you squint *really really hard*. It made me sit and grumble about this weird fascination that exists about making otherwise non-sexual characters sexual. In the beginning of the movie, Ben Stiller's character (who needs character's names anway) says that he doesn't think Zero's ever kissed a lady. And of course, the movie is about the lady he finally falls in love with (who is kinda sorta but not quite Irene Adler-esque). Are there any movies with people that do... whatever it is they do WITHOUT somehow falling in love or at least getting frenched in the process? I guess it's just a little frustrating for me since I'm so stinkin' awkward (hopefully not literally stinky though) and even if you conveniently ignore the awkward my interest in the whole business is really quite low. Not non-existant but definitely low. It's sort of like the majority of people who ARE very interested in sex/love/relayshunshipz can't deal with people that AREN'T and therefore make up scenarios to sort them out. Overanalyzing? Yes. Sorry. I don't mean it in like a big conspiracy ZOMGZ FIX THEM sort of way, just ... ok well I don't know what I mean.

ON THE OTHER HAND. My slash fixation sort of forces it upon Holmes, an arguably otherwise non-sexual character. I see him as that and Watson as the exception to the rule. Is that sort of the same thing? I guess it kinda is. Oh well. I want someone to make a sort of indie movie along the lines of Garden State or Amelie or something about a really TRULY awkward chick. Amelie was shy but not really awkward, she had boyfriends before, and she was pretty smooth and sneaky. Natalie Portman in Garden State is sort of closer to what I have in mind ("We're not gonna make out or anything....") but kinda sorta not quite. The guy in Science of Sleep was pretty close too but he was a little bit over the top bonkers.

I watch too many movies. And then think too hard about them. And then get really insecure. Boy am I influencable. D:

ok ok ok
disregard this whole entry it's kind of

uhm
