Cruel Albion

Although really I should be saying "Cruel Hispania", since Spain's the real culprit here!

Why "Cruel Albion"? Well basically because when I was walking around Bristol a few weeks ago, the city proceeded to torture me by having a series of posters on display that were pretty much taunting me whenever I turned my head... Taunting me about what? Here, take a look:





Arrrrrrrrrghhhhhh!!!

Rub it in my face England why don't you! Same goes for the rest of the world!!! And the worst offender is my sister in New Zealand who was taunting me 10 days ago about already having seen it (before the rest of the world)!!!

So what's the big deal? Why don't I just go see it for myself and stop complaining? Because in Spain it's not coming out until JULY!!!! grrrrrrrrrrrrr.... How dare they!!! I've been impatiently waiting for mid-May to arrive for months!!! And now I have to wait an extra 2 months?!?!?! It's almost enough to drive me to log onto the Ryanair website and get myself a ticket to the UK... almost. I'm not that crazy! Although once upon a time I did used to go to Holland from Belgium just to watch movies in English instead of French... But to be fair... Maastricht was only a 20' drive from Liège, and there were several of us in the car who did not want to see Harry Potter (and several others) in French so... not that crazy of me... :p

Almost 2 months... I keep hearing good things about it and am trying real hard to stay away from spoilers. July 5th can't get here soon enough!!!

  1. I've read and watched spoilers and I still don't care. I am looking forward to seeing it this week, but I won't rub it in. :-)

    1. Thanks DJan! ;o)

      I've been told by 2 different people to stay away from spoilers... and although I've caught a whiff of something intriguing I'm trying to steer clear! This is one movie I really don't want to know much about when I finally go in to see it!

    1. Woops! A bit behind schedule I see! :p
      The first one was surprisingly fabulous! I was worried they'd screw things up, but nope! Did a great job! So am doubly impatient for round 2! ;o)

    Celtic woman in Fury ! I went to see it on the opening day over here in CDN. Don't want to get you mad, JUST telling you. No spoilers here. Si tu as aimé le "premier" film en 2009, alors tu seras ravie pour ce deuxième opus !!

    May the Schwartz be with you !!!

  6. Et pendant que j'y pense........

    Tell me, will they do the same thing about the upcoming Joss Whedon's film ? Hopefully not !

    And her's a local critic with **NO** spoilers, or almost :

    1. Which Whedon film? Much Ado About Nothing? I haven't even seen any mention of a release date for Spain! Will probably be stuck catching it on dvd. (Cabin in the Woods never came out here) *snif*
