Oh...boy? Just kidding, I love Jane Austin. As is widely known, I'm 46% gay.

huh...I would have thought you were better with statistics than that, but I suppose the questions were probably skewed to favor heterosexuality in most studies due to the large protestant population in the U.S.

What Nexa doesn't know is that I've secretly replaced her morning coffee with Dr. Hardon's Testosterone Crystals.

I may have to watch some of that. I <3 "Emma"
I'll watch anything with Colin Firth in it.

That's the only one I'm not watching...I can't tolerate it being spread out over three weeks, especially since I have the entire thing memorized.
/swoon.

Wow. Regular ol' Joph fan club in here.
Speaking of tomorrow night, I'm going to have a special outfit for you to wear.

What is it about dramatisations of Jane Austen that annoy me so much?
She is without doubt the wittiest author ever, and I suppose I've read and re-read 2 or 3 of her novels every year for the last 30 years.
I know there have been some shabby movies, TV shows and plays, but even those that are well executed make me feel, well, just wrong. Emma Thompson's Sense & Sensibility screenplay is readable in its own right, and in recent movies, Colin Firth, Alan Rickman and Kate Winslett performed their ickle socks off. Dammit, even Hugh Grant was credible. How did that happen?
I'm probably a purist where Austen's concerned; in the same way that Terry Pratchett and Charles DiCkens' puns need the spelling quirks of the english language to have their full impact, I need to read the words on the page.
Even the best reworkings feel as wrong as would "Star Wars - The Opera" or "Full Metal Jacket - a Ballet in 3 acts".
Having said all that, I still watch them in the knowledge that even when my teeth grind as the action skips over delicious social observations and word-games, the guile of her plots and characterisations will somehow shine through.
Oh, and not forgetting Jennifer Ehle's supreme Miss Bennett

Douglas Adams just popped up and shat in Oscar Wilde's mouth.
He's into that, though.

Thumbs up to the cast, although the actor who played Wentworth was a bit too pretty.
