It’s not even Thanksgiving yet, and already Christmas is starting to feel old. Decorated trees and glittery things and blinking lights have been up in some stores for weeks already, and I was in more than one shop this week that was playing Christmas music nonstop already. I’m gonna be suffering from Christmas burn out before December hits.
“The war is not meant to be won. It is meant to be continuous. The essential act of modern warfare is the destruction of the produce of human labor. A hierarchical society is only possible on the basis of poverty and ignorance.”
Cats tell the story of this most American of holidays, Thanksgiving, coming up next week. Features lots of pictures of cats that look like they’re praying. Weird.
In case you missed Matt Smith with Craig Ferguson on The Late Late Show, here’s basically the whole thing…

With Carey Mulligan, Tobey Maguire, Leonardo DiCaprio, Baz Luhrmann onboard at this point, is it worth giving this movie a chance, at least until we start seeing terrible trailers? Or should some novels simply be written off as unfilmmable?
I’m almost entirely sure that no one who has not read The Deathly Hallows will be able to grasp what’s going on. The film is damn nigh impenetrable without the background of the novel, and all the previous novels in the series. It was almost impenetrable to me, who has read all the books, at least on an emotional level.
