Happy new year from the UK! I hope 2011 will be a good year or a better year for you and your friends/family. Remember, we're living in the future. (h/t someone on Twitter, was it you?)

We stayed in and watched the original True Grit, and I've done a bit of RP tagging, which is really all I need for a decent night--NYE/Hogmanay in Scotland is a massive pile of things I don't really like (e.g. drunk people, loud noise, crowds, loud drunk crowds). To be perfectly honest, it was pretty good.

I await what the Coens have done to rework True Grit, because I think the film as is could have used their firm hand to rein it in. No, it hasn't come out here yet. Hell, The King's Speech hasn't come out here yet. [shakes head]

I'm really stunned that FWD has shut, in the sense that I think it's a great resource and I really don't feel like it's outlived its usefulness by any means. I'm sure the reasons are complicated and important, and possibly to do with spoons, and I'm glad it will remain as an archive, but...

I do feel a bit lost. I'm sure I'll be able to process it more later when I'm less boozed.
