FIRE! FIIIIIIIIIRRRRRE! Saladin. SALADIN. Wheeee!

Went and saw Kingdom of Heaven today. I actually liked it. It was about an hour too long [should've cut those bits of brooding by Orly just a wee smidge, guys] but it did have its good parts. Orlando Bloom! Liam Neeson! Jeremy Irons! [Ew!] ALEXANDER SIDDIG! [Yay!]

However, it also had its bad ones too-- like the flaming tar people and blood and That Chick's eyeshadow. And her haircut. Heh. And the fact that Orlando Bloom and That Chick had only one expression--- brood. Ah, well.

However! When I got home, Mom asked if the movie I'd gone and seen was "that one where Orlando Bloom finally plays a guy." Ahh, Mom. I love you. His display of facial hair was impressive, though, compared to the Wimp!Beard from Ned Kelly. Except when he had it all closely cut and strange.

AND DUDE. I just IMDB'd KoH, and guessss who was in it! David Thewliss! I thought that priest guy with the crazy peroxided hair looked like him...

And hee. In the trivia section, IMDB states: "All characters, except Godfrey, existed in real life." So... what now? How... does that work? I am so confused. :P

(no subject)

HEEEEE!
