I'll be able to see Prometheus in London!!

Simone's mind was in outer space la la land!

You know, I like me, I really do, but sometimes I blow my mind with my silliness. All this damn time I have been planning to watch Prometheus when it comes to the States on Friday, June 8th. Note, it opens a week earlier in London (and I even had the nerve to complained about that) on June 1st... meanwhile, I'm just moving right along in planning my Killarney/London trip.

Not twenty-minutes ago, I'm just emailing my friend Lucinda in London trying to firm up our Friday and Saturday plans (June 1 and 2). She suggest the Criterion Restaurant for dinner, and I'm wondering if she wants to get a pedicure at the OPI Nail Bar at Selfridges (the Lord knows my feet will be jacked up after all that hiking in Ireland). And I then non-chalantly write, 'And maybe we can see a movie'... and then my brain went silent...

Maybe. Maybe? Then it fuckin' dawns on me... the movie event of the year, Prometheus will be showing there in London while I'm town! {sigh} I just don't know about me sometimes.

Then I experience several psychosomatic reactions at the implications of what I just realized. I will be in London as Prometheus debuts there a whole week before it comes out in the States. My face gets hot, my mouth goes dry, my neck muscles tighten, my pulse quickens, and adrenaline is rushing through my body. I can SEE the movie whilst in London ya'll!!!!!!!! Doh!!!!!

Why, why, why am I just thinking about this now? LOL! I'm so excited!!! So I just tweeted this embarrassing revelation and @becky_monster replied back and told me that tickets are being sold right now at BFI, Cineworld and Curzon Soho (where I saw Hunger back in 2008). I'm at the Curzon Soho site right  now figuring out what time/day to see it. And I'm anxiously awaiting to hear back from Lucinda to see if she wants to come with me.

So there you have it, Simone got a clue today and it's sad and pathetic, but, I finally got the memo and I'm going to see Prometheus in London on June 1 or 2nd. Yeah, go me, even if I'm a dense dumbass!!!!

Isn't he lovely?

 Earlier this morning, I was alarmed by an anonymous question posted to me at tumblr by either a troll or an idiot, asking me a very stupid question about Michael's temperament based on the GQ US interview.

Look, I know that in the world of celebrities, people are used to being lied to and having PResque responses spoon fed to them. Michael Fassbender is a grown ass man. A very intelligent and sensitive human being. He revealed a LOT about himself from that interview, and many people will pick up only little bits from that and make judgments or ask irrelevant questions. I think some fans are just not used to reading interviews featuring a real live 35 year-old man who doesn't filter himself. Michael was raw like sushi in this interview, and I admire him being like that,  that's why I like the dude. If you're used to underdeveloped personalities like Justin Beiber, then you are in a new universe when it comes to Michael Fassbender. Cut the man some slack, read and re-read his interviews, just like how he re-reads scripts, so that you can have a true understanding of all the glorious layers that he peels back about himself. We do not know, nor should we know everything about him. But what we do know of him, makes him a fascinating person, and it's very exciting being a fan of his and enjoying his great body of work.
