The News, In Brief
Aug. 28th, 2008 11:23 pmI uploaded three stories (the first three Comfort and Joy stories) to the new Automated Hatstand Archive. Perhaps this will make me get off me arse and update my own website with the two years of backlogged stories I've got kicking around.
The Toronto International Film Festival (hereafter TIFF) starts next Thursday. Which means tomorrow is the day our picks are due for the ticket lottery. Which means part of tonight was spent making final decisions and filling out the forms.
Viggo Mortensen has two films at the fest: Appaloosa and Good. The Sweetie forgot to try and get me a single ticket to the special presentation of Appaloose (he felt awful, but I figure it's the universe just telling me not to spend 40 bucks on a movie, even if Mr. Mortensen will be in attendance) so my one shot of seeing him is Good. I'm iffy on seeing him play a Nazi sympathizer, but hey, it's Viggo. I'll pretty much watch him in anything. (Almost anything. Not the remake of Vanishing Point, though. No way. No how. ::shudder::)
(The Sweetie thinks we should take Ros down to the red carpet when Appaloosa has it's premiere. On account of the fact that every time she sees my Return of the King poster with Viggo in full Aragorn mode she shouts "Viggo." Then again, that might just come across as creepy.)
Keep your fingers crossed for us drawing a good position in the lottery, would ya?
