Okay, so I just got back from seeing Brokeback Mountain.



I don't usually cry at movies. I didn't cry at RENT. Hell, I didn't even cry for Boys Don't Cry, which I still feel kind of bad about. But this movie made me cry. It was damn good. But damn, I need to go find some mindless fluffy fanfic to make up for it.

Yes, there was kissing. And, oh, they were good kisses. And the love in Jack's eyes every time he looked at Ennis was almost painful. And damn, that boy has pretty eyes. The tension between those two was absolutely delicious. I need to get that scene where they meet up again after four years and just watch it on a loop for hours on end.

When I first saw the trailer I immediately thought "Oooh, Ryan & Colin if they were cowboys..." ^_^ But Ennis and Jack are so nothing like those two. But! There were a lot of similarities. And I can definitely imagine Ry & Col having some of the same talks.

I loved the noises in it, too. Especially in the beginning when they were always climbing on and off horses and clanging pots around and stuff. The music was only so-so, but that's okay. Just means I'm not buying the soundtrack any time soon. Jake Gyllenhaal was absolutely amazing. Heath Ledger was good, too, but he didn't talk a lot. *smirk* No, seriously, Jake was incredible.

Randomly skipping back to Ryan & Colin because I was thinking about the wives. If I had to assign roles, I would make Jack Colin and Ennis Ryan... and that's before the wives come into play, but Jack's wife could so be Deb... if, you know, she lived in cowboy world. And Ennis had two kids and Jack had one, and then there was that new baby talk near the end.... huh. I guess they are Ryan & Colin as cowboys in the sixties. If Ryan didn't talk a lot. ^_^

Dear, you can't even see a randomly delicious gay cowboy movie without assigning the parts to either Ryan or Colin?

Dont worry, because... I did too!!! ;) And I agree on your Jack being Colin and Ennis Ryan.

Plus, the kiss-scene near the stairs... *faints*

If it didn't mean getting through the end of the movie again, I think I would pay to see that scene again. ^_^

If you go to IMDB, you can find a map of where a movie is currently playing. You might be able to find something vaguely in your vicinity. ^_^ It doesn't seem to be playing in a lot of places, though. I'm surprised I didn't have to go into Philly.

That sucks. Nowhere near Pittsburg either? I tried to look that one up and then realized there are... 8 Pittsburgs in the country. ^_^

I assumed it was that one, but I didn't want to... assume... ^_^ Did you know Leatharegee lives in Pittsburgh?

Irrelevantly, I have several friends with DSes and my friend just set up wifi in his house. So when I do get a DS for Xmas, we need to coordinate online time ^_^. If I dont' get AC I'll just buy it. Though I've never played it before so I'll have to learn everything.

That would be awesome! ^_^ Karen is hoping to get the wifi thingy for Christmas. And AC is also awesome. Addictive (as you know ^_^) and quite easy to pick up. Kat, Karen and I have been having lots of fun playing tag and hide and seek and just hanging in each others' towns.

Fun! Oh yeah, did I leave Fatal Frame 2 or Elf Princess Rane at your place? I can't seem to find them but I'm not sure what I did with them.

From: [identity profile] clayangel.livejournal.com


Elf Princess Rane definitely. I noticed that the other day. Fatal Frame 2 maybe. There's a copy of some Fatal Frame game here, but I don't know which one or whose it is. It's probably yours. I can send them to you if you like.

From: [identity profile] clayangel.livejournal.com


I don't have your address anyway. And I don't think I have any idea what your email address is. ^_^

From: [identity profile] kitsune-rei.livejournal.com


Well, you'll have my address when I get a chance to send you something ^_^. Oh wait, do I have your address...?
kitsune_rei@yahoo.com is my most-used one.
