'Twas the night before Christmas
and all through the house not a creature was stirring, except Bridget, frantically beating eggs for chocolate mousse. EDIT: OM NOM NOM!!! Excuse me while I die and go to heaven.
And tomorrow I will wake up and find dozens of neat things at the foot of my bed - unless I tidy my knicknacks and jewellery up before I go to sleep. Ho ho ho! Everything in the heap is just the right size for a stocking-filler, except possibly the laptop.
Bee Movie was quite sweet (if you'll excuse the pun); young adventurous bee discovers that humans are farming their honey, and sues. Some LOL jokes for the grownups, including ones about lawyers, and a couple of nice cameos. This time the animators will have been trying to crack 'viscous light-scattering fluids', and there was honey everywhere. Absolutely shockingly atrocious botanical science, however - if I watch it again in less polite company there will be a great deal of scathing. How many people did the script get through and still have such ghastly scientific nonsense? It's like a 1950s B-Movie, with a plot that hinges on Bad Science. B-Movie... Ah - I guess if I look at it that way I can just about see it as an homage.
I thought it would be nice to go to the movies on Christmas Eve, there might be a special atmosphere - but mostly while I was waiting I saw groups of young lads who'd had a bit to drink saying "Let's go and see Alvin and the Chipmunks, hur hur hur"
