the pic doesn't work? It does for me :(

stupid thing.

[Allison]

It is one of my absolute favorite movies...although I didn't like the book much.

Probably why I liked the movie, its a lot different.

[Esther]

Henry Cavill is the main reason I watched the Tudors for as long as I did - it was the first time in my life that I got bored with a program about the Tudors.
And Jonathan Rhys Meyers scares the cr*p out of me.

In some of the those pics HC s a bit young for me - prefer my men to be men not boys.
Not that I would avert my eyes - eye candy is eye candy!

[Allison]

I watched the first 2 epis last night...actually sort of boring...but perhaps if I didn't know anything about what was going on I wouldn't think so? I don't know.

[Allison]

I'm certainly not hailing the show as historically accurate...I actually find Henry VIII very interesting...I've read a lot of books about him.

When I said "if I didn't know what was going to happen" I meant it in a...general sense.

Doesn't Henry end up really fat? LOL. I don't really see that happening at this point.

[Allison]

Bastardized history and great butts is about all the show is good for...I don't know if I'll watch anymore for awhile.

[Allison]

yeah, I didn't mean to sound so defensive :) I knew what you meant.

I wouldn't mind how historically accurate it was, honestly, if it wasn't so BORING. But I was just dying for it to end both shows I watched.

haha, I don't think he'll get fat either :P who would watch then?

I've heard of Dissolution, but not read it.

[Allison]

LOL. Well as long as they are accurate enough to make him fat!

erm...I'm not even sure. Perhaps I was just cranky? hehe. But...it just seemed to move sooo slow, and I didn't really feel that connected to any of the characters...even the hot ones were annoying me.

I've seen the series with Ray Winstone - it was good. I also know a reasonable amount about Henry VIII as I did an extended essay on him at school.
My first beef with the series was that if is is called The Tudors it should start with Henry VII.
I could forgive the historical inaccuracies in exchange for the lovely (if inaccurate) costumes but it just seemed to drag on and on...

I might start watching again to see JRM playing Henry VIII fat and stinking with ulcerated legs!

[Allison]

I am telling you...I only watched the second episode for that man's lips.

But...really. :)

Hi Rachel! Happy Saturday :)

[Allison]

I don't think it was the sex...hehe.

Who knows, I just have one episode left on the first disk...I'll probably watch it tonight. Maybe I'll like it better

[Allison]

I know Fiona! I didn't see it either, but I refreshed the page and had to scroll down I was like...ugh! I wanted her to know she wasn't ignored purposely :)

[Allison]

Man...I am pathetic. We are out of Diet Dr. Pepper and I am DYING for one. Happy Hour at Sonic (half price drinks) starts in 10 minutes and I am counting down so I can go.

[Allison]

Nope, the second episode wasn't nearly as...butty as the first.

It had a somewhat disturbing shot of Mary Boleyn giving him a...well. You know.

[Esther]

Fiona wrote: "I've got fed up with Henry VIII we have a whole load of history in England and all we learn is bloody Romans, Henry VIII and the Victorians over and over and over again...."

I agree: Elizabeth part I & II, The Tudors, two versions of The Other Boleyn Girl - where is the rest of English history?

My favourite period of English history is the Civil War. Last time I saw a drama set then was mid-1980s.
I haven't even found many books set in that time.

[Allison]

It was! That is just...not attractive to see.

[Allison]

he (Henry VIII) really does look like an old pervert, doesn't he? In that picture you posted, I mean.

[Allison]

man! I missed Rachel's post again!

She's good.

[Allison]

aww, I love Sonic! Its a drive up, so you can't go inside to eat or anything. You just take your food home.

From 2-4 every day all the slushes and drinks and stuff are 1/2 price. Its pretty cool.

[Allison]

Rachel.

[Esther]

Oh and Hi Rachel! :0)

[Allison]

They cast Anne Boleyn well I think. She looks like a conniving bitch to me. But she has barely had any role yet.

[Allison]

I shouldn't be here either Rachel, I'm supposed to be reading Howl's Moving Castle and catching up to Laura.

[Allison]

I'm trying to be patient, Sonic is right across the street so if I go straight over I'll look like a total caffeine hound for getting there right at the start of Happy Hour. haha...I need to wait a bit.

[Esther]

And of course Hi to Allison and Fiona!

[Allison]

Fiona wrote: "!!! yes you should. *shoves Allison back to book*"

*beats Fiona on the head with IT*

[Allison]

hey Esther!!

[Allison]

eek! Is is already dark there?

[Esther]

I really need to go to bed. I have to wake up at the crack of dawn tomorrow to make-up my children before they go to school.
I should also be reading but I'm reading Cranford and it is a little too melodramatic for my present mood.

[Esther]

Fiona wrote: "Allison wrote: "eek! Is is already dark there?"

Yes!"

Here too

[Esther]

I'm GMT +2

In English that means it's 22:13

[Allison]

only 2:15 here :D

[Allison]

mkay...really going to read Howl's now!

[Allison]

I'm going to try to get to page 100 and then start Our Mutual Friend perhaps.

Unless I'm so into the book I can't stop, of course...

[Esther]

bye - Happy reading!

[Allison]

Our FREAKISHLY loud weather radio just started going off and it scared the crap outta me! And we're under a severe weather watch-I didn't even know it was supposed to rain! haha.

[Allison]

Rachel wrote: "Okay, I have some reading to do.

See you chicks later!"

byyyyyye! (esp. since I "left" like 20 min. ago)

[Allison]

nope...not reading...just watching.

[Allison]

or should I wait until we've read it? I didn't know how soon that would be.

[Allison]

I watched part of N&S last night, btw...just to see it now that I've read the book...but I skipped a lot of it.

I noticed Mr. Thornton's little hints of falling in love with Margaret so much more...and when he did the whole "Look back! Look back at me!" thing...I just melted away. I didn't know whether I wanted to cry or jump his bones.

[Allison]

mkay, I'll wait til we read and we can watch it "togetherish". :)

I need to read Bleak House too! I'm def. going to wait and watch after reading on that one.

[Allison]

so there is a man canvassing the neighborhood in a big refrigerator truck that says "EZ MEAT SOLUTIONS" on the side. LOL. Real high class. He knocked on our door and I totally ignored it, even the dog was quiet, and she always barks when people knock.

I suppose thats kind of rude but...it saved him having to make his pitch for me just to say no anyhow.

[Allison]

Oh...another Dickens, Martin Chuzzlewit, sounds interesting to me. There isn't a BBC movie for that one though, is there?

Gosh. Imagine having to read a book that hasn't been made into a BBC movie.

[Allison]

Its a weird movie, but enjoy! haha.

I think I'll watch Jane Eyre with Timothy Dalton when I get tired of reading.

I have been reading in between posts, I promise :)

I'll get off now too, though (probably).

Byyyyyyye!

[Allison]

....good Lord, Jane Eyre is long.

[Jeane]

i enjoyed that one.

Just saw the waterhorse and it was so beautiful. especially as I have been there and recognized things. but th emovie was very good, really liked it.

[Jackie]

Awww, I missed everyone :(

Allison, sorry to hear you didn't like the Tudors. I may have liked it more because of HC. :D

[Allison]

oooo, I might have to watch it again just for him...even though I didn't like the movie much.

I saw it was coming on TV today, but I missed it already.

[Jackie]

Um ok guess you girls are back?
