Elin's Journal

Now I need to see this movie!

Public Enemies

Johnny Depp, Christian Bale and Marion Cotillard? In a movie about John Dillinger? I am so there!

I got to see Sweeney Todd today, thanks to the intrepid efforts of theuberbob, who saved us some free passes to the preview screening! (It meant getting to the theatre two hours early, but hello, Depp AND Sondheim. And Burton, who I still love when he does that goth thang.)

SO! AWESOME!

I want to dress just like Helena Bonham-Carter now.

Trailer! FEEL THE HYPE!



Joe Bob says check it out.

Stolen from arcana_j, quite shamelessly, too: Sweeney Todd trailer!

There are no words to describe how excited I am about this! Johnny Depp looks amazing, and I can't wait to hear him sing more. (I like musicals!) The costumes looks fantastic, and Alan Rickman looks like he's going to chew scenery like crazy. Yay! Anthony Stewart Head also appears. And Helena Bonham Carter, who I have always liked. I can't wait!

In other news, I have new auctions up. Please take a look, there's lots of manga in there and I am saving up for many upcoming expenses. ^_^
eBay auctions are here!
FurBid auctions are here! (NSFW, many of them)

The Radio Comix Online Store has also been updated with new products for those who are interested.

We've got the Manga Projects of Damocles hanging over our heads, and already looking impossible to complete on the new, earlier deadlines, so that's stress-inducing enough. But, due to torrential rains, I can't go to the post office today either, the usual day we go. So, the mail will all have to go out on Monday, since I have unavoidable manga work and other errands/engagements over the weekend.

Alas, even if it wasn't raining, we'd be behind on the mail processing for the week since the printer has run out of ink again, and I haven't had a chance to get out to buy more.

In more pleasant news, apparently Furrlough #172 has shipped, so at least that's taken care of and at least one book that's not painfully late. Now, if we could just get Genus #83 (and #84) and Milk #59 finished up and out of my hair, everything would be better. Now to start working on Furrlough #173.

Just finished reading: Reiko the Zombie Shop Vol. 1 and Reiko the Zombie Shop Vol. 2 by Rei Mikamoto -I liked it a lot, because it's really cheeseball and over-the-top, with a definite 1970's influence in the art-style. It's really gory though.
Just finished watching: The Killing of Sister George on Turner Classic Movies- a surprising lesbian-themed movie, as none of the lesbians in the film end up dead, as was Hollywood's usual tactic for lesbian characters. None of the characters are particularly likable people, but hey, at least none of them died or committed suicide. I was reminded of the storyline in Love & Rockets, where Hopey ends up living in the mansion of a former wholesome TV star who hires a very young-looking prostitute to dress up as a little girl. I found that unsettling, so I got the same feeling off this movie.

Also, auction spam! Please buy my stuff!
