Robin Hood Week | | That's a wrap, folks.

-
*cue the inclusion of Robin Hood farewell gifs*

Somebody -- I can't seem to find who! -- started off one of their posts with this
 at some point during the week, and I decided to steal their idea. :-P

Well, Robin Hood Week has drawn to a close.  Everyone, thank you sooo much for all your enthusiasm and participation.  You guys really made this week fun -- *I* sure enjoyed it, and I'm proud of what we did here. ;)  I loved reading y'all's posts -- looking forward to reading the rest of them! -- and just had a great time overall. :)

Now for the very long list of the aforementioned posts, in random order.  If I missed anybody's post, please let me know and I'll try to add it!  Also, I'm sorry if some of the titles don't match up perfectly with the post titles.

WOW!  That's a bunch of posts, people -- go, us!

Don't forget that Hamlette's giveaway is still open through this evening (she'll be announcing the winners tomorrow), so if you haven't entered yet, now's your chance!

I'm hoping to be able to wrap up reading/commenting/responding in a few days, and then "I regret I must leave you," as I'm departing on a vacation with the fam for a while.  However, I've several post ideas "in the works," so hopefully they'll stay with me and I'll get them done at some point. ;)  

Thanks again, everyone!!!  
Have a fantastic start to your summer. :)

Lark Rise to Candleford, Seasons 1-4 {review}

Well, darlin's, here 't'is!  A review of the TV series Lark Rise to Candleford .   SO!  I finished the final season the other night, and am here to discuss my thoughts;)  (Spoilers will be sprinkled indiscriminately!  Read at your own risk;D) LRtC centers around young Laura Timmins, a girl from the wee hamlet of Lark Rise, who moves to the  more affluent town of Candleford to work in her aunt's (or was she just a cousin?) post office.  Miss Dorcas Lane is probably the wealthiest person in Candleford and holds a lot of sway with the townspeople.  With Laura's advent into Candleford, the two communities begin to be intertwined. The show's basic plots aren't my absolute favorites, but I love how relaxed the show is, and how marvelous the characters are.  (Because they just ARE.)  It's a cozy series, but at the same time there are moments of rather intense drama.   I'm not feeling extremely eloquent for reviewing this series, heh

My Dream Cast for a Live-Action Remake of 'The Incredibles'

Alas, no, I am aware of no immediate plans for Disney to produce a live-action version of The Incredibles .  But if such plans should ever materialize . . . have I got a cast ready for them or what. 😉 ⸻ Elastigirl / Helen Parr Emma Stone Emma would rock Helen's grit & sass like no other actress available today & I will not be accepting criticism of that statement at this time.  I would absolutely love to see her in this role.  She would crush it.  Mr. Incredible / Bob Parr Eric Allan Kramer I know he's a leetle too old now, especially as a partner for Stone, but he's the only person I've ever been able to envision as Bob.  (Except Alan Hale, Jr., but he's about six feet too old.)  So it is what it is, peeps.  Violet Parr Mackenzie Foy   I went back and forth on the casting for Violet.  I would also love to see what Millie Bobby Brown could do with the role, so it was difficult to decide.  In the end, I think Mackenzie Foy would still be my first choice, but

Romeo and Juliet (2013) {review}

[Note:  Keep in mind that this review is written from the perspective of someone who has never actually read Romeo and Juliet , m'kay?:)  Also, there'll be spoilers, because, I mean…all things considered, you probably know how it all ends.] I first became seriously interested in watching this movie a) because of the utter gorgeousness of all the stills I saw on the Internet, and b) because it has Hailee Steinfeld.  I'd only seen her in True Grit (2011), but, I thought, wouldn't it be cool to see her in a completely different role? So, yesterday, I watched it.  And…I'm not quite sure what I think of it. First things first.  This movie was beautiful .  It was one of those films where you think, "I want just about this entire movie in screencaps."  The cinematography was excellent.  The lighting, the camera angles, the costumes and sets …aaaaaaahhhhh. See what I mean?? Hailee Steinfeld was absolutely precious as Juliet Capulet.  I th
