I just got the new BBC version of Emma. I shall have to watch it, to compare with the other movie. (Marathon next week perhaps.)
Into battle we ride with Gods by our side
We are strong and not afraid to die
We have an urge to kill and our lust for blood has to be fulfilled
WE´LL FIGHT TILL THE END! And send our enemies straight to Hell!

[quote=""fljustice""]Then went to see Toy Story 3 with our daughter to get out of the heat. Both my husband and I cried at the end when Andy goes away to college. Warning graduates: don't see this movie with your parents! ;) [/quote]

Will save it for a rental - next year, maybe. My daughter leaves in August for an out-of-state college. :(

Well, finished watching the second volume of Yi San, one of those Korean historical sagas, and I have to say, you do get to see the money on the screen. Not to mention that those Korean men are awfully easy on the eyes. Gorgeous costumes, new (for me) culture, and a sad, sweet romance. Now about half-way through the third volume, and just one more to go after that.

Yep! Save it for a rental. Out of state does feel so far away. Luckily my daughter let me friend her on Facebook several years ago, so I cyber-stalk her. I never leave a message, because I don't want to remind her that I see all that stuff!

I want to see that again. And perhaps read the book too.

Despite some of the sad moments it has an uplifting ending.
