Since all the network TV I watch has had their season finales, and the summer cable season hasn't fully started yet, there's nothing on tonight. And apparently since its Memorial Day weekend, a few of the shows that are still on are taking a break this weekend.
So, I finally got to watch Imagine Me and You. Its a cute romantic movie starring Piper Perabo and Lena Headey, that I first heard about reading Faberry fanfic, given Piper Perabo's character is named Rachel and Lena Headey's is Luce. (With Quinn's full name being Lucy Quinn, the Faberry fandom latched onto this movie because its a lesbian romance between two girls with the same names as them) Is it weird I'm more into a romantic story between two lesbians rather than hot lesbo action? Anyways, I enjoyed it, it was nice and sweet.
Watching Deathly Hallows Part 2 right now as I type this up. You know, for some reason I was thinking Luna and Neville ended up together a few months ago, but then I remembered in an interview JK Rowling did she had said what had happened to all the characters, and they had married different people. And watching this movie again, I realized I was thinking they were together because they had Neville and Luna share a moment in the movie.
As I prolly said in my entry when I saw this movie in the theaters, while I did enjoy the movies, there were little things from the books I wish they left in. Like Neville also fitting the prophecy, and Voldemort basically choosing which boy would actually be the one the prophecy was referring to by going after Harry rather than Neville. (And Dumbledore later telling Harry its rather telling that Voldemort, himself a half-blood, fixated on Harry, who was also mixed blood, rather than Neville, who was a pure-blood. Given his talk of the superiority of the pure bloods, its interesting he was more threatened by a mixed blood child) Or elaborated on the Lily/Severus stuff when they were kids more. Like the movie has Petunia calling Lily a freak when she first finds out she has magic, but in the books, I thought it was a nice touch to have Petunia write to Hogwarts when she was a kid, not knowing she wouldn't make it in at the time because she was a muggle. I kinda liked it that her distaste for the magical world wasn't fear of the weirdness of it all but rather a deep seated sense of rejection that she wasn't special like her sister.
Anyhoo, I digress. Didn't that come out around the same time as Transformers 3? I wonder if that's coming to HBO soon then? (or did it already?) Because its not on friggin Netflix, nor is it available to rent on Amazon video. Yeah, I heard the third movie sucks, but I'd like to see it for completeness sake!
