And I am not fine, last night I saw you online, your screen name used to be mine...

We watched Cowboys and Aliens last night. I was all set for super cheese and hammy acting and just general ridiculousness... and I was disappointed. It wasn't a bad movie, and the acting was all really solid, but everyone was taking everything so seriously in a movie called COWBOYS AND ALIENS. I was actually kind of bored by it, which is ridiculous because ALIENS and COWBOYS, and I feel like they missed the opportunity to really let everyone's crazy flag fly. But (minor spoiler) the guy who played the sheriff on Sleepy Hollow who got killed in the first episode was the first named character to die in this movie. I was like, "Apparently he's only allowed to be alive for a limited time."

I also accidentally bought a MH doll I never thought I'd want yesterday. Oops? It's hard to feel bad when she's so pretty though!





Answer to last Sunday's song: Come As You Are, by Nirvana. No one guessed this song, which I picked because last Sunday was when Seattle won the Superbowl, and Nirvana is from Seattle. Clever, yes?

I watched Cowboys and Aliens in the cheap theater, I seem to remember enjoying it, though I didn't think it was the best movie ever.

Which doll did you get? :3

Yeah, like I didn't hate it, but I wasn't as invested in it as I wanted to be. I think if I'd been expecting less cheese, I might have liked it better.

I got the new version of Skelita, lol. I'm planning a review post where I explain why this was a surprise even to me. :D


P.S. Perfect icon. Love it.

Is that the movie with James Bond & Indiana Jones?

Ooooh which ghoul did you get?

[leia131.livejournal.com]

That's the one! We were hoping it would be silly, even with those serious actors in it, but no such luck. Although I do want to see Daniel Craig in a comedy now; there were a few comedic moments, and his timing is great.

Art Class Skelita. I never thought I would like a Skelita, but she's so pretty! She has flowers on her face!

Oooh, pretty! I was tempted to get her, just for the teal in her hair, but I already have basic Skelita so I held strong ;) Congrats on your find, that's a pretty doll!

Yeah, something about basic Skelita's eyes has always put me off her, so I didn't expect this version to be different in that regard. But she is! I also have basic Skelita's stock, so I'm interested to see how that works with this ghoul.
