Snape, Snape, Severus Snape. Does it really need an explanation? XD He's so...so...hateable!
If you could, what time period would you travel to?

Oooh, good one. Quite hard to choose a single time period, too.
Probably the 1920s. The music was good, the literature fantastic, and the fashion superb.
Book you're currently reading/just finished?

I'm actually on a bit of a Stephen King run right now, just getting through The Green Mile (I saw the movie, loved it, and a relative got me the book for Christmas). Enjoying it greatly.
A book you'd like to read?

The Mayor of Casterbridge
I heard some rave reviews about it and thought "what the heck? Why not?" which is surprising, since i'm not normally a Thomas Hardy fan (HATED Tess of the D'urburvilles)
Favorite Disney film?

Hmmm .... Enchanted. It's a conglomerate of everything I've always loved about Disney films.

A-hem. Essay time! *rolls up sleeves* I love real music, the kind that's made using instruments rather than computers. I like things that sound a bit rough around the edges, and I like British music because...hey, I'm British. It's kind of like patriotism, except not. So! Punk, Britpop, 60s British rock and pop and my one non-British favourite; soul and blues.
Essay over! What do you most like to write about?

Good lord, Orla...where've you been all my life?
I suppose it's a tie between unstable persons like Puck and sprawling, dysfunctional families. But I do love me some pretentious narrators as well.
The fictional character you wouldn't mind taking out sometime?

James Patterson. Hands down.
That one character that drives you absolutely insane (for any reason)?

Absoloutely insane in a good or bad way?
In a bad way...probably Bella Cullen. Twilight is an insult to the world of litearature.
In a good way? Many, many characters like that...Alex DeLarge, Frederick Abberline (in the movie From Hell), Ichabod Crane, Sherlock Holmes, Many of the Rent characters, Sirius Black, Severus Snape etc...
Have you ever starred in a play before and if so what was the last production you were in and which character did you play? I'm in Romeo and Juliet for this entire week, which explains why I'm hardly ever here.

The last play I was in was a Christmas show in primary school. However, last year I was in an indie student film, playing the MC's girlfriend. I always felt it was kind of an irritating role because she was such a doormat; he treated her like shit, but at the film's ending he was lying in a hospital bed after being shot, and she'd come running back to him again, despite really rather disliking him- but there is an alternate ending named 'Sarah's Revenge', in which he wakes up to my character straddling him and saying, "You think being shot was painful? You, sir, are in for a whole lot more." Or something of the kind.
Favourite line from a book/film/TV show etc?

Currently, it's "In case you haven't noticed, we've been sharing our culture with your men all morning." This is by Spartacus in 300. He's speaking to the Xerxes, whose men he's been battling. Xerxes had just said he should surrender because they could share a lot of their cultures with each other. ^.^
Which book would you NEVER want to see made into a movie because it would suck too much? [/blockquote] |

Neuromancer by William Gibson. It's the definitive cyberpunk novel, and it's too complex for your standard movie.
Though I am always of the opinion that if I was the one making a film adaptation it would be excellent and true to the source material. ;D
Something that made you smile today?
