LJ-whiplash!

[kseenaa]

Oh gawd, I am going to get a whiplash from reading my flist... Some have some serious shit going on with work and family and I just... want to give them a hug! And then in the next post some awesome stuff has happened and instead a smile is spreading across my face...

Sometimes I wish I could sort posts by their mood. *lol* At least that wouldn't give me a whiplash. ;-)

Anyway. Had a pretty good day at work today to. Short day, only four hours. Shockingly short, since I am getting used to do such long hours now. :-P Tomorrow I start at 8am though... Meaning I have to leave home 7:15. Not amused. At all. :-/ Starting at 9am and leaving home at 8:15 am is fine I think but... *shrug* I just don't like mornings. At all. :-P

Right so... Oh, I saw this at a friends LJ (thanx!) and since I know I have a lot of Sherlock fans on my f-list *winks at spicehobbit* I thought it might be of interest.

US Version Of Modern Day Sherlock Holmes Gets The Green Light

I've always wondered why the US aka Hollywood has such a deep need to remake everything? Why is that? Can't blame the language this time... Ah well...

To true! Why fix something that ain't broken! I don't think swedish film has made any remakes... Correct me if I am wrong... But then again, the budget of the swedish movie industry compared to Hollywood is... well, TINY would be the word. *lol* Still claim we are good at drama (Thanx, Ingmar Bergman!).

One remake off an old Hollywood movie that annoyed me was... Planet of the Apes. I mean, the first one with Charlton Heston had SUCH an impact and was SO good... It just failed when they did a remake. :-P

Ah, yes. :-D The bombshell Anne-Margaret! *grin* Yes, indeed. She is swedish. I saw a documentary (swedish one) about her once. Really cool! Didn't she have a stint with Elvis? Memory fails, but I think she was in one off his movies?

hells yeah! they had a passionate affair and they were in several movies together. a lot of people think that she was elvis' real true love, but for sure, she really loved elvis.

Aha! My memory didn't fail! At least not totally. *grin* Seems you are still on quite the Elvis-high from your trip. ;-)
