I want to like Primeval. It’s kinda hard ‘coz:

I CAN GO SEE AMANDA TAPPING! WHEEE! :D
I was worried about the timing before, 'coz my parents wrangled numerous concessions to allow me to go to the convention last year, when it was a month before exam period. But due to the tortuous new trimester system- which necessitates the loss of our holidays plus study week *glares*- exams finish the week before the con! Oh, joy! *twirls giddily*

Does anyone know why the hell Channel Ten is suddenly screening So You Think You Can Dance at 11pm now? What happened to the family-friendly 7:30pm slot? They'd never do this shocking time-frame for the Australian version, so what gives? I much prefer the American show, with the hilarious judges and wonderful Cat and far more entertaining and humorous contestants, and it deserves better than to be relegated to last place behind Simpsons and movie repeats. *frowns*

I’m stuck in limbo hell, waiting for the next installments in all my favorite series. Currently making me nearly leap out of my skin with eager anticipation and hopeless desperation:

Your result for The Sorting Hat Test...

Slytherin

You scored 42% Order/Chaos, and 35% Moral/Rational

Chaotic Rationality. You don't think much of rules and restrictions; you look at things from an analytical perspective and probably think morality is relative to some extent. Your strength lies in being able to make your own judgments and form your own strategies uninhibited by others; your weakness lies in the wariness other people may have of you, perceiving you as dangerous.

1. ‘Juno’ rocks. I don’t care how tragic or artistic or tortured the other contenders were, Ellen Page totally should have won for this movie. But at least Diablo Cody won for her screenplay, I seriously love the dialogue.

I loved Ellen Page in this movie. She hit the right notes- Juno was snarky, belligerent, never without a quip and always rocking an attitude. But she also imbued Juno with this lovely vulnerability, and compassion, and warmth. A nasty brat is hard to love, but Juno is so much more than that, she’s a real human being with feelings and defense mechanisms and triggers. I wanted to shake her a few times when she went on the attack, but then she’d say something or show this emotion in her eyes and I’d want to hug her.

2. Saw Jumper. Starring that dude from the Star Wars prequel and the chick from the OC and the black dude that’s famous for his bad language on Snakes on a Plane. My verdict?

AHAHAHAHA. *dies laughing*

3. The ending of ‘Hannibal’, the movie, sucks. I’ve read the book, and I much prefer the real deal. But I guess it was too brave or freaky or risky for the studios to follow- it’s just a shame that the author let them ruin his work like this. I don’t know how much control authors generally have or negotiate for, but if he didn’t have veto power, then damn him for selling out in the first place.
