I at least want to *see* the second release version of Titanic, but I don't think I want to see them enough to buy it; I already have the movie on VHS. That's the one time I've felt that way about a second-round release, I think. I want it, but I don't want two copies of the movie.
I should see that movie; I love the play.

Brando. *drools* The talent, the sex appeal. You know, I think Brando might be worth it...
Ugh, Chicago: The Razzle Dazzle Edition. *twitch* Why didn't I wait?

I honestly think he's one of the most gorgeous men to walk the earth (well, out of the men that have been put into the spotlight). I read a 1000+ page biography on him last year, although I'll admit to a LOT of skimming. He constantly suffered from STDs... yeah, I know you wanted to know that. :P
Em, you haven't seen it?! *jaw drops* We watched it in English last year. It's amazing how stunning Brando and Leigh were -- not only physically, but as actors.
No, I haven't! I've read the script and I saw the revival last summer, which was absolute genius, except for the slightly weird casting for Stanley. I want to see someone who has what John C. Riley had (I can see why they cast him) and the extra added sex appeal.

Oh, right! I was fortunate enough to see it as well. I believe it was only scheduled to run through April, but was ultimately extended into the summer, allowing me to see it.
John C. Reilly was so incredibly miscast. In my opinion, sex appeal is just such an integral part of Stanley's character. He tried, but just... no.
Physically, he was all wrong, but I thought his portrayal in other aspects very much worked. I saw it right before it closed, and I'm so grateful that I got to.

He was certainly a good actor. I just think that's one of those roles that, no matter how great of an actor you are, you need someone who just oozes sex appeal as well.
Obviously, it's completely subjective. However, I'm grateful I was able to see it as well. Natasha was so amazing!
I was going to see the play, but I didn't really want to. I regret it now.
I have a hangnail that hurts like a b*tch.

Haha, I just looked at John's IMDB page and his bio starts with, "With a homely mug and curly mop of hair made for repelling character work..."
That's so... cruel. Heh. My friend saw him walking around NYC and swears he was high.
I want a manicure. (speaking of hangnails)
Eddie Varley?? RobbO, do you need glasses?? That's Euan Morton, sweetie!
Thanks for the well wishes! I'll pull the sucker out later. I bleed better at home.

Oh, absolutely -- he had the brooding, animalistic thing about him, but not in a sexy way. Natasha is a goddess. She... brilliant.
I got another good job interview; I really hope I can make this one better than the other.
So my mom just said she refuses to cosign my loan with me...so I have to find someone to do it for me. And I am pretty sure no one in my family will. Oy ve

ya know Emcee...me too. Maybe that's why I wrote March.
I keep saying- "uhh...this semester needs to be over" and- before I know it...it is! Tomorrow is my last final!
Graduation on May 5th!! WOOHOO!!
Wow, you have an early graduation date! Congrats.
My parents can be so frustrating sometimes. I have to move out of my summer housing by the end of the first week of August. The office manager at my summer job is okay with my last day of work being any time in August, but my parents are insisting that I work until the middle of August, 2 weeks after I have to leave the dorm. Those 2 weeks are going to suck so much.
So they want you to commute to work from home?
My mother is being *so* obnoxious about summer storage. She just called me to tell me she signed me up for some storage company - not even knowing if the dates would work for me. So now I have to figure out when I want to move out, when I really don't know. And I have to go pick up boxes, when I don't know how much random sh*t I have and how many I'll need.
Actually, Em, they have a "brilliant" plan so that I won't have to commute from home. My dad manages a hotel that's about a 10-minute walk from my job, and he went ahead and set aside a room for those 2 weeks. While it eliminates the commuting issues, it's still living in a hotel room for 2 weeks*, with the added bonus of my dad's employees knowing if I go out at night and when I come back in. Isn't that wonderful?
* A hotel that does not yet have high-speed Internet access in the rooms. I don't mean to come off as spoiled, but I don't know if I can handle going 2 weeks with nothing but dial-up.
