    ...but when the film making begins again,
    can we get someone to tighten up the rules
    in the Continuity Guild
    - having just watched Narnia TLTW&TW
    I am confused as to how the beaver gives Lucy
    back the handkerchief she gave Mr Tumnus, saying Tumnus gave it to him before the faun was captured.
    Then in the scene when Aslan is walking away near the end Tumnus gives the same handkerchief back to Lucy saying "she needed it more"
    - huh?

    oh I know it's a fantasy,
    and I shouldn't expect logic

    still the Castle Hill area looked good...

    bring on the new Thespeons...?

    They're a performers union in general,
    aren't they?

    for like clowns and muppets...?
    ..wrong thread?

    and so those child magicians
    - could they be members
    and therefore be youthful idiots?
    :- )


    God of Carnage strikes back...
    I note Mark Hadlow, who has an announced role, Dori, in The Hobbit, says he's not a member of AE...


    Telly ho...
    Might just go watch The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe now, having never seen it, it will be nice to see some of the Canterbury area in a movie - from back when they were still making them here...

    ...some of the people, some of the time...

    Craig, you might want to check fulsome in the dictionary.

    As I understand it fulsome is losing its old hold on being just a pejorative term
    - negative, loathsome and insincere and is drifting towards
    the positive pole of generous, profuse and abundant.
    Words evolve as worlds revolve...

  • Radiation: Not funny,

    Quelle horreur...

    This is an act of war, and we can't let the terrorists win...

    ... That's right Richard Curtis is a real New Zealander now (I think...), just like us!

    "more ruminative...impulses"

    but trotters are pigs' feet
    no even toed ungulates here

    he cud mean stomach turning?

    but what's his point with the Scab jibe?

    Have PAS folk have crossed the line
    and started acting in The Hobbit?

    I thought unions liked democracy where
    people could, like, discuss things...

    Standard, mean and average...

    I can't believe that the sort of people who post at "The Standard" ...

    me neither - went there for the first time today
    and they were ripping into Russell Brown summat fierce - I note Pollywog popping up opining that he "doubted Russell had ever done a hard days work in his life" and other similar comments in his aggressive style that he uses on sites his kids don't read...
    I don't think I'll bother going there again.
