Various Bits and Bobs
I have had nothing but beans to eat all day. Goddess help all those around me. But OH! how I love beans. Any kind of bean, I don't care. I could eat beans every day for the rest of my life. Legumes are my friend and the enemy of my enemies. I am a walking weapon of mass destruction when I get what I want to eat. Add pork-soaked greens to that and I am a deadly weapon worthy of a James Bond film.
At night, I've been watching the movie Inception. The film is brilliant. I've long been a proponent of dreams and how they can be manipulated lucidly, so this film is right up my alley. The only problem is that it's too loud on our TV in the living room, so I've been watching it with headphones on the little TV. I can clearly hear the dialogue and follow the plot despite the explosions and gunfire. Quite simply, the film is brilliant. It should have won the Oscar. I believe that Christopher Nolan was robbed. And I'm not jut saying that because Tom Hardy was in it. Anyone could have played his role and been a part of the whole that made up the core group of the movie. I'm just glad it was Tom Hardy. I like to watch him act. It only further convinces me that he's the one to play Cadmus. Oh, and I've learnt that he wore a nose piece for his role in Shinzon. His nose is much straighter and has a slight knob to it in Nemesis than it does in his other movies. If he played Cadmus, he would keep his own nose.
I have not written today. I have slept instead. I was up late last night, all excited over Khanada's version of the artwork for the second edition of The Chalice. Sophie also has some plans for the The Harming Tree, which I won't mention here. It'll be up to her to mention that first, then I shall reveal it here. It's exciting to have a group of people excited about my work. Cadmus Pariah is truly hearted, I can tell you that. Later on, I shall probably write, hopefully finishing or coming close to finishing up 'The Last Acolyte.'
Right now, I'm watching Manhunter, with its ethereal use of Shriekback music to enhance the atmosphere of the serial killer movie. Who knew such a gently sad song like "Evaporation" would end up in a movie about a vicious killer?
