timepiececlockOh my gosh.

Gavin Rossdale.... my Gavin Rossdale, my girlhood rocker crush of choice, the man who got married to Gwen Stefani the year I finally turned legal age enough to pursue him.... he's going to be in a movie with Keanu Reeves and Rachel Weisz? And he's going to play ...Balthazar?
I can't decide if I'm going to be happy because his perfect cheekbones will be plastered before me on huge theater size screens... or to be frightened by the fact that playing a hellspawn demon baddie might mean they'll give him demonic make-up. Too much make up would the whole point of seeing him on the abovementioned huge theater size screens.

Re:
Date: 2004-02-24 12:32 am (UTC)Was she a nice person in middle school? Or was she a bitch? How did she dress? -- inane questions but I can't resist. Don't feel obligated to answer.
The important question... is she good enough for my british rockerbaby sweetcheeks?
Re:
Date: 2004-02-24 12:53 am (UTC)In junior high, she dressed just like everyone else and really didn't stand out. But in high school, she wore her hair in a bob and dressed in a lot of black and white, little straight skirts (like from the early 60s) and herringbone check ... sort of like the girls The Beatles used to date back in the day. She hung out with ska guys who rode Vespas and listened to Fishbone. I don't remember her hanging out much with female friends ... only guys, probably the guys in her band.
I certainly never got the slightest impression that she was a bitch in any way shape or form. She just wasn't mainstream. I didn't actually know her very well, since I was in the "smart" classes, and she ... well ... wasn't. But she always seemed quiet and genuinely nice.
I have to imagine that, given the kind of people who tend to get famous, she's a lot nicer person than most.

Date: 2004-02-24 12:19 am (UTC)To busy being exceptionally annoyed at the casting of Mr Reeves! Are they insane!

Date: 2004-02-24 01:52 am (UTC)Reeves is expected to play a down trodden working class English Magician. I am afraid I never much care for him at the best of time, but the thought of him doing a working class english accent...not good.
Honestly, the crazy suggestion that they cast James Masters, well that would have been better.
Rachel Weis is great though...

Though I had actual seen Perfect blue before (i liked that one)
Re:
Date: 2004-02-24 02:56 am (UTC)Watching Perfect Blue was a very stiuational exprience for me... I don't think I would have sat through the first half hour (that was sooooo slow) if I hadn't been exhausted from running around a con and just wanting to park my butt in one of the theater-like show rooms. I'm glad I did, though, because it got very interesting by the end.
