Rosario Dawson. Nurses of SHIELD!

I am liking AoS more at the moment than in a long while, but absolutely, how much better would it be if they could be a bit more integrated. esp if they could bring in some of what makes the Netflix shows work in terms of atmosphere, etc.

I would also like an inventory of crazy wigs worn by Javier Bardem.

favourite syrups on TV:

Yeah, exactly, I had the same thing with PF. I would like to rewatch Inglorious Bastards (I can't remember how it's misspelled) one day, but I feared it might happen again there too and I really liked it the first time.

given that she is generally very lovely, it was weirdly comforting for the film to show she has quite ugly feet. nice to know that even movie stars have imperfections like that.

well yeah but is that enough? yes on a first watch, no on a second, for me.

fun fact: UK Netflix only has vol 1, because of course it does. so that's the only one I've rewatched. trouble is for me Tarantino films have a strong case of what I call the Magnolia Effect - you get completely absorbed by a super long stylised film and you think it's genius and then you rewatch it a while later and…

But so do Swedes and Norwegians to be fair. But the gag was great regardless.

We so need to see Cheddar more often. Dog bra!

Well, best of luck with it. I do hope things work out for you.

Are Copic out of your price range? I was wondering if you could find any deals on some of their sets.

Oh yeah, I meant a water or a diet drink. The other problem with alcohol being the calories…

Just got back from Bridge of Spies. I cannot stand Tom Hanks usually - he has the face of a petulant, confused potato - but it was absorbing and pleasantly diverting without ever being much more than that, except in a few poignant moments. But that's kind of good, really. A slower pace than most thrillers isn't a bad…

I find alcohol is the only way I can sleep before about 4 in the morning. I have a real insomnia problem at the minute. The challenge is to not resort to alcohol to fix it :(
