I loved Black Swan.

I thought she played that one note quite well. Depending on one's mood, the ending is either breathtakingly brave symbolism or laugh out loud funny. I leaned closer to funny in that while I didn't actually laugh I did have to say, "Okay, let's remember what the auteur is trying to do here."

I get both sides of the Black Swan fence. But in a piece that stylized, I decided to flow with it, and ended up really liking it. Not sure how I'd feel after a second viewing, so I doubt there'll ever be one.

The only thing I ended up liking about Black Swan was Barbara Hershey. (And the swan wings tattoo.)

We watched the 3 Sherlock pieces over the last couple of days. I like those quite a bit. One of the writers - Stephen Moffat - is the main writer/creator of Coupling. I think I may have found a Brit writer to stalk. I suppose that would include Dr. Who as well.

Doctor Who is fun. Not serious, but certainly fun.

Yep. I'm so glad they revived it!

Stoat suggested Grindylows.

WTF? When did the guy who plays Neville Longbottom turn into a total hottie?

Going to midnight show of HP:7.2 tonight, very much against my better judgement. I despise crowded theaters, I don't stay up well, and it's a 3d showing, so my head might explode. Felt obligated. Dear friend is paying my way, and needs company as she's going through some tough times. I hope I do okay. I'm just such a small town homebody these days. But, it will be fun if the movie engenders high emotions. Nothing like sobbing behind cheap plastic polarized filters.

Create an HP thread or talk about it here?

Edited to add: I decided on new thread.
