… aaand more stardust
But this time I mean the movie. Which I really liked. Yes, it’s true: I am a big &#*@ing sap.*
But seriously, who thought it was a good idea to use some crappy pop song to frame the closing credits of an otherwise perfectly good flick? It’s especially tacky for period or fantasy pieces. It totally blows the mood. Blech.
* In my defense, I expected it to suck, even though it was a Neil Gaiman adaptation, and expectations play a big role in how I take to movies. It is in fact really clever. Also, in my defense: Claire Danes. Shining.

I really enjoyed Stardust, too. Fun and funny, and sweetly romantic. I’ll join your sap table, now.
Oh, and amen to Claire Danes. Plus, Charlie Cox. Man. I walked out of that theater with new crushes. Where’s my brave geek or falling star?
Sigh.

Ditto the sigh. Dude, I watched most of it *again* last night. Sheesh.

Love it! And her. Ok, mostly her.
