Twilight/Bring It On Drunken Double Bill

You may know that creating drinking games for movies is pretty much one of my favourite things. I have amassed a pretty good collection, for a variety of movies and also, very importantly, Eurovision. So here's a couple more of them for your viewing/boozing pleasure.

The Bring It On drinking game:

Drink for the following:

• Lesbian subtext
• Every time a word is altered to include the word "cheer"
• Kirsten Dunst says "Duh"
• Spirit Fingers
• Bull Horns ("Go Toros!")
• Someone does a somersault
• Training montage

The Twilight drinking game:

Drink for the following:

• Jean shorts
• Every time someone tells Bella she's awesome
• Self-hug (i.e. When Bella is having an emotion and hugs herself while looking vulnerable.)
• Sparkles!
• GAY.
• Things that you would be arrested for in real life, but Bella finds romantic. (i.e. creepy behaviour, Love=Murder.)
• Adorably clumsy
• Softcore abstinence porn
• Montage

Quite frankly, you can whip up a perfectly decent drinking game for more or less any movie if you follow only two rules: drink whenever there is a montage, or whenever something is kind of gay. Who knew that homoeroticism and training montages would be the building blocks of modern cinema?

The Amazing...?

Apologies for the slightly rubbish quality of these pics; my phone does not have the best camera. (I've realised it tends to focus pretty weirdly, apart from anything else. Like, thanks phone, a small point in the top right-hand corner is obviously likely to be the important thing to look at.)

Anyway, here's a quick bit of letterpress for the front cover of the zine I made for the Portland Zine Symposium. I'll post some pics of the actual zine shortly. Nothing fancy, just this nice san-serif font from the Em Space collection in 72 point.

Zines Galore

This weekend I went to the Portland Zine Symposium and picked up this lot, all through trades. Pretty good haul, I think. I'm going to read through them, and then I might come back and tell you about the best ones. 

Just Some Photies

I haven't posted for ages so I thought I would just put up a few photos on here. Nothing spectacular, it's just that I'm super excited that I have a new phone and the camera on it isn't half bad. It's not great, either, so I'm still going to be using my actual proper camera.
