I don't think it's been mentioned in a while but Marie Antoinette, by Sofia Coppola, gets its premiere at the Cannes film festival, which should be this week or next if I'm not totally wrong.

Being a lover of films with historical costumes I think this is the film I've waited for most this year, not counting POTC2 of course. I think it's great that both of the films I'm really looking forward to have so much HM involvement.

I think a big OMGWELOVEYOU!!! goes out ot the creator of this new banner. (The Almighty Strilo?) It makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside for the handmaidens not only to be seen on a banner, but bascially get the entrie sidebar. Hooray!

When my friend and I went to see Stick It (Which was fantastic) we also got to see the trailer for POTC2 and the few glimpses we got of Elizibeth (Keira) were freaking awesome. Like someone has said earlier, looks like she gets to kick some pirate butt. Of course, nothing will ever be as cool as kicking droid butt. tongue

let's break out with some cheap wine and chocolate cake (supposing this was also something the handmaidens would indulge, right, right?????)

Yep, this was the first SWC banner, back when I was a mod here. I had specifically asked for a banner that took notice of all the then active fanclubs and threads that were around. I might have mentioned something extra about handmaidens as well. wink

Lol ObiAnne!! Way to use that power wink I agree, Marie Antoinette looks very good. I'm hoping it'll be playing somewhere near me, but I'm thinking so, since Lost in Translation did so well. I never got around to seeing that... *puts it on list*

Only if they're off duty darth_frared . wink And I think our ladies would like the wine but not the cheap part. tongue Lol. That cake does look amazingly delicious though.

I downloaded the PotC2 trailer, and loved it. Keira looks fabulous of course. My sister bought the new Vouge with her on the cover and it's an pretty good article and pics. I think what I like best about Keira is that she's gorgeous and I know I could be good friends with her because she's really friendly and humble.

I also saw PotC2 action figures at Target whilst perusing the Star Wars Action figures. Bought and Obi-Wan, and was giddy at the thought of the PotC2 action figures being the same size (how cool would that be???) but it was not to be had... the PotC2 action figures are just small enough to look mildly spedish next to the Star Wars Action figures. sad

Ah well, c'est la vive.

The banner may not be new, but I know I haven't seen it before. Let's just say it was a pleasant surprise to find it yesterday when I came to SWC.

I think the handmaidens would like some wine on occasion whilst off duty, but not *cheap* wine.

I have to admit I wasn't sure if I wanted to see POTC2 at first. The plot sounds too much like the first one, to be honest. And I was afraid they would mess stuff up, like having Will and Elizabeth be just the way they were at the beginning of the first movie. But! I saw an older trailer, not the new one, and I knew I'd probably see it. Never could resist Jack Sparrow. Not that I've ever really tried.

I think I know what line you referred to, Knight-Ander. My brother made a special point of telling me about it after he saw the trailer.

i read about having to watch lost in translation all the time. grr. might have to put it on my list. blush

sorry about the cheap wine. i was thinking what with the sheer number of handmaidens it would be more practical to have more for less. but i see the error in my ways grin

right now i'm thinking miss keira is too thin. i hope she does look better in the new pirates movie, looking forward quite a bit to it, nothing much else going on this summer.

Check out this article for what Keira thinks of Thin Hollywood. It's a bit enlightening.

And she is skinny too! And people wonder why so many girls have eating disorders...

I am glad to hear her say that though. happy

it's even scarier if you ask me, because there are some girls that would think they have to do that to actually get into the business.
