Rugby, Films, the West Wing and Porn
Apr. 22nd, 2003 12:34 am1) Saints finally ended their losing streak and beat Warrington. And before anyone who actually knows about Rugby says 'so what?' I was just about ready to scream if they'd managed to lose against Warrington.
Of course they might have won because Tommy Martyn was back. With Tommy they're unstoppable, without him they run hot and cold. He is very, very good.
2) Two more films on the 'they make me cry' list- Dragonheart (yes, I'm a sap) and Leon. Both of which were shown today. And they showed the European version of Leon which is a good thing. The more I think about it, the more I think Gary Oldman might be okay for Sirius.
David Thewlis (who was in Dragonheart) I'm even less sure of. But guess who else was in it Jason 'Lucius Malfoy' Issacs. And Brian Thompson and at least three people who come under thingy who was in whatsit as whasisname.
3) Dude just when I thought I couldn't like Jed Bartlet any more it turns out that his favourite film is 'The Lion In Winter' and yes, I recognised it purely from the quote that he and Toby used. That is such a good film. I heartily recommend it.
Love that show, even if I fear I am going to grow up to be a way less intelligent and cool version of Toby Ziegler.
4) So in the ad-breaks for the West Wing I was channel-surfing, and hit upon Living TV. Now normally it is the bastion of talk-shows, Will and Grace and Charmed. But apparently late at night it turns into the porn channel. Which is interesting since Sky normally blocks anything like this. So I'm flicking channels and suddenly there's porn involving girls going down on each other. Sadly I found this far too fluster-bar and may well have missed a little of the West Wing as a result. For cheesy porn it was rather good.
