Much Ado About Nothing. :)

All I will say is, I now officially adore Shakespeare. I now officially adore Kenneth Branagh's acting. You may not expect me to walk around the house quoting "Trust God, love me, and mend." "A star danced, and under that was I born." "Thou wilt be condemned to everlasting redemption for that!" and many other pieces of Much Ado About Nothing. Okay people. I even dreamed in Elizabethan English all last night, understood all of it, made the most brilliant repartees, and can't remember a single stitch of my wit this morning. How's that for gratitude? :D Anyway, read my review on the Much Ado About Nothing movie here! :) ~Rach

Of Hobbits and Deep Anticipation!

Oh yes. I am excited. 
The Hobbit is arguably my favorite of all of Tolkien's books. It has a happy ending and just enough wonder to make you feel uncomfortable one moment and cozy the next. :) I love it to death. And I have been rather excited (and pleased) by the video-blogs.
And Oh my Stars and Stockings I just watched the trailer. Mr. Thornton of North and South is Thorin Oakensheild. And people? He can sing!!! A marvelous, mysterious, throaty, perfect-for-giving-one-chills sort of voice! GAH! I cannot wait. This movie will prove to be amazing or I'll eat my hat. :)
Here's the link to the trailer if you're interested! :)
