I'm guessing you won't be wanting a 'carefully designed topless swimsuit' however, Maud?!

Small, I was just going to wonder why they had put all those pics on there, you can't really perve at a guy surrounded by cuddly toys however cuddly said guy may be

I'm watching Clash of the Titans!! So far, not great, I think I prefer the (not especially great either) 1981 version. Also this has Sam Worthington in it, who I admit, I haven't seen in anything else (to my knowledge) and I know he was in Avator. But he seems to me indescribably bland, or is that just me? Can't see what the fuss is about.

Completely OT, but I am just Shock at the name of the new stadium in Mumbai. Why has nobody told them?

No - am with you Phoenix. Don't get how Perseus bit of stuff was supposed to be immortal, then appeared to die, then came back in v. cheesy ending (not into mythology so ignore me if that's accurate).

As for him - he sounded Australian (is he?) - kept expecting it to segue into a Fosters ad!

Did your DD enjoy WSS?

OP posts:
SupermassiveLBD · 19/02/2011 22:21

Ooh, you don't even need popcorn with that movie, Maud
It's like eating organic dark chocolate with chili flakes.

You knew I'd like it, didn't you? but I can't think how you guessed.

What is the film?

Truly a Thing of Beauty 2 , Spiro. -- Wall to wall Gizzy

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 19/02/2011 22:30

It's Guy as a Thing Of Beauty. 'Tis indeed very beautiful, with a classical soundtrack. We've seen it before, although not for a while.

GardenGirl has been watching WSS quite attentively - it's a long film and still going - but said quite early on "this is based on Romeo and Juliet, isn't it? It won't end well".

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 19/02/2011 22:32

Organic dark chocolate with chili flakes? Pah. .

SupermassiveLBD · 19/02/2011 22:41

That was lovely, Maud, with some true classic moments, the sunlight through Twiglets shot being only one.

But Gizzy, ah...
