His relationship with The Bond Girl(tm) was refreshing.
Today: Giles/Spike, kink meme, more birthday prompts, interspersed with housework. And my secret goal of spending as much of the day as possible under warm blankets. Also, I will probably ponder how to fill my 50 new icon slots. At last, a new LJ feature I truly care about!
Last night I saw Quantum of Solace finally, on mad impulse by
nemaihne & Mr N. It did not begin as a good movie (too frenetic & improbable) but it ended as a good movie. And Craig now owns the role.
Random: The conjunction of Venus, Jupiter, and the moon from December 1. It was cloudy where I am on the first, but we got a good view of the conjunction on the night before. Lovely.

Ignorant chase scene
I suppose there are other things a chase scene can do, fancy driving techniques, raw nerve, etc. I didn't feel we saw much (any?) of that either. It was just stuff happening.
But the kicker is the reveal of a passenger in the trunk, so really that previous chase scene was MUCH MORE tense than we imagined. But we can't go back and feel differently about it. It seems like a waste, like ignorant filmmaking.
