My rabbit delights in mocking me. I've been revising all afternoon, and I swear, he was deliberatly stretching and yawning and falling asleep on the sofa next to me just to rub my nose in it. Little grey bastard. He twitches in his sleep, too - no doubt chasing dogs or something.

In other news, I saw Kingdom of Heaven on Thursday...

Let me preface this by saying that the plot makes absolutely no sense, and the film itself is rife with LOTR shout-outs, from the blonde Viking getting his Boromir on at the start (For fuck's sake, you've got an arrow through your Adam's apple! Stay down already!) to the scene atop the walls of Jerusalum near the end. But since Ridley Scott hasn't had an original thought in his entire film-making career, this should suprise nobody.

Orlando Bloom wasn't actually that bad. He's always going to be a naff actor, but for once he didn't make me want to bludgeon him with a blunt instrument, so call it a win. Plus, seeing him go all hardcore on Lord Oliver- I mean, that one priest at the start was pretty damn cool. Liam Neeson was pretty as always, and Jeremy Irons was fantastic, though shockingly underused. David Thwelis was amazing and stole pretty much every scene he was in.

I felt kind of sorry for the bad guys, though - I mean, on one side you have Orlando Bloom and Jeremy Irons, and on the other you have Menelaus and that stupid Dekkar bloke from Timeline. Oh gee, I wonder who will win.

And finally, memes stolen from imbeiaiel:

2: Oh, that is all Joss Whedon's fault. Ever since I saw that first scene with Wash on Firefly, everything has been a somethingosaurus. A friend is being too whiny? Complainosaurus. Thlayli is rattling the bars of his cage? Chewosaurus. I screw up in an exam? Failosaurus.

Damn you, Joss Whedon. Must you infiltrate every aspect of my life?

6: Two words: Pietro Maximoff. I started watching Evo because my littlest brothers were fans - every schoolday from 4.30 'til 5.30. I'd get in about 5.10, and they'd be in the lounge watching it. So one day I've got back from college, and I'm taking off my shoes and coat and chatting to the twins, and this little white-blonde kid who looks like a discotheque version of Draco Malfoy appears onscreen. And he, I kid you not, bitchslaps this other character, and boom! I'm hooked.

7: My Family + Phantom of the Opera = hilarity.
