I actually managed to write drabbles this weekend. One for TPM100's elements challenge - Rain and one for LOTR100's on contentment - Beloved

It's odd, I have this tendency to write angst for LOTR, but when it comes to TPM, certainly as far as the drabbles are concerned, it's been happy stuff. There are plenty of people writing Obi-angst and I'm really enjoying writing Qui & Obi training/bonding sessions.

I saw the extended TT in town at the weekend. The ordinary one is �27.99 and the one with an extra disk and a Gollum to dust is �44.99. Given I don't even have space for the 4 DVDs, I know which one I'll be buying once I get the annual gift voucher from work.

I also had a bit of a film session this weekend. Went to see the Matrix. Some girl's phone went off and she answered it! Admittedly it was only to see she was in the cinema. I didn't mind because it was in one of the sappy love scenes they really could have done without. I'm left with all these questions now - like what happens next - but then you're talking about a never-ending story. This one was better then the second - the action was better and a lot less gratuitous.

Then there was One Hour Photo, which was good and not scary at all. Michael Varta had really dodgy hair in it but since we also got pretty much a full frontal shot I'll forgive him. Shallow Hal was good and funny. Blue Juice was okay, despite Ewan McGregor having long hair and doing a London accent in it.

I realised last night, while watching The West Wing, why I trust the new VP for no reason whatsoever, and also think he's a bit of a twit. Then it occured to me that was because he was the captain in Crusade! And for another West Wing connection - the old VP was in One Hour Photo. I never trusted him and that really was for no reason. But I think I was right to given what I've vaguely heard about what happens at the end of the fourth.
