(no subject)
It just occured to me that I really ought to actually use my 100 userpics, so just went and uploaded a bunch more, for various fandoms. The total now stands at 15 Star Wars, 15 Doctor Who, 8 Spiderman, 6 HP, 6 Lost, and many, many others.
Help me.
Johnny and the Bomb was on last night. I’m not sure what to make of it- it was good, in that sort of cosy BBC way (that’s a high compliment, believe it or not) but it wasn’t my book on screen, y’know? No-one really looked like I pictured them (especially Kirsty) and…I dunno…the books have this tone that it’d be really hard to get on screen, this sort of weird cynical-but-not-cynical tone. Now that I think about it, you probably could almost describe it as being cynical about being cynical, or something, but…I should read the books again, I reckon.
The whole thing’s almost like Doctor Who in a way, because all these bizarre things happen in a ordinary, bleak place, and cause Johnny’s world to change a little.
I love those books. Did I ever mention this? ;)
And lastly…the Mickey Smith Ficathon, aka the Mickathon. XD

I didn’t see it, but seeing as I’m a *big* Pratchett-Discworld fan, I’m thinking I really ought to read “Johnny and the Bomb”. Another one for my massive “to-read” list… ;)
