...I hope O_O
So anyway, sorry for not writing to my blog over the last two days (Rory has been reminding me). My house has been a complete mess as we're doing some renovations. I actually arrived home today to see my bare concrete floor strewn with holes and pits.
So I went to see Quantum Of Solace on Saturday. Being the picky bastard I am, I kept picking holes at the tiniest problems which I had with it. Comprehensive list below:
- It was too short. I don't care what the critics thought of Casino Royale, Quantum was too brief.
- Daniel Craig took his top off and made me feel worthless, again...
- The cameraman should have been shot. If this is "modern camerawork" I'm never watching another action movie. The nosebleed-inducing, scene-shift effect made it so that I completely misunderstood the "Eco-Hotel" part.
- The story felt like a bit of a bum-note after the masterpiece that was Casino Royale. There was something missing. Maybe it's time to bring back Moneypenny and Q (as long as they're not played by Samantha Bond and John Cleese respectively).
- There was a severe lack of humor in this iteration. What few jokes were apparent were absolutely hilarious; there wasn't a single person in the cinema that didn't shed a tear when Bond flipped the bike up from under the motorcyclist.
School was horrible today. You could feel the exhaustion in the air like a humid blanket. One of the teachers wouldn't let me sleep during one of the French classes and another teacher wouldn't let me read a book during study. I was so tired I woudn't have studied anyway!
Gym and McCambridges at lunch, as per usual. Once again, they had tomato soup, so I had to go for a carb-filled ciabatta. Poor me, indeed...
I had to move my PC into my room during these renovations, so bedtime blogging is probably going to happen most of this week.
Well, I'm off to make myself a nice cup of Horlicks.
