I've Lost My Leg

[krickets]

Yes I do have a mid-term this week, what's your point?

Earlier last week I caught Romeo + Juliet on television one afternoon and it reminded me just how well I thought Leonardo DiCaprio performed in that movie. Later that week, by pure coincidence, I happened to see The Departed in theaters and holy good movie batman! I had been wanting to see this since I first saw the previews. I'm not a Scorcese fan by any stretch of the imagination. But this just looked damn good. My powers of perception were spot on apparently because this is one killer movie.

So, in honor of these two occurances and the overall kick-ass-ish-ness of The Departed, I present to you 9 Romeo + Juliet icons and 12 Departed icons along with a couple of songs from the movie.

Gimme Shelter - The Rolling Stones
I'm Shipping up to Boston - The Dropkick Murphys
Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd featuring Van Morrison

I'm shipping up to Boston...

12 Departed

P.S. The article in the latest issue of Nylon with Kirsten Dunst and Jason Schwartzmann on the cover really makes me want to see Marie Antoinette badly.

Omg, totally snagging some of the Departed icons. Beautiful. Thanks so much!

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! It was so good! I like your icon too!

[never-frugal.livejournal.com]

Hello! These are very pretty icons. I really love what you did with no. 5 from R+J, very creative, so I need to take that one! Also like the cap on no. 10, hahaha, it's michael! :D

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Haha I just realized my numbers were all wonky. So if you look back and go "hey! I commented on the wrong icons!" Rest assured, it's not you, it's me!

Anyway, yeah. Thanks! Which one was the one you said was creative? Haha.

[never-frugal.livejournal.com]

LOL. That's funny!

My favourite creative one would now be 17. :D

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Okay, Haha. Yeah I think as I was editing the numbers, you were commenting. Did I mention I have a headache? Haha. That's my excuse.

Thanks!

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Wasn't it freaking awesome!?

[yursare.livejournal.com]

Oh, thank you!=) I'm making a 100 of Summer Glau right now, but this one is all for myself! I love her loony grace.
If you want to, come check out the rest @ my iconjournal, prodigal_fall. It's brand new and pretty much unpopular, so I would appreciate concrit a lot!=) Especially since your icons are so good!

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Oh I'll definitely take a look at it later! I'm flattered you asked!

[ack-attack.livejournal.com]

I am so glad you posted these at the Leo Festival!!! They are awesome! I love the Lavender one lol :D

[firstanointed.livejournal.com]

Ain't seen the movie yet, but it looks awesome! Love the iconishness, and whoot, Romeo+Juliet! Saving to mems to plunder later. Awesome work!

[cherrynorth.livejournal.com]

taking some of the Departed set because that movie was fucking awesome and so are your icons. will credit.

[turquoisetumult.livejournal.com]

Haven't seen The Departed, but I really want to see Marie Antoniette. I really can't say why though!

The icons look great though! And, look, it's Michael! I guess he and Walt never found their way back home. :)

[urban-tea.livejournal.com]

I haven't seen either of those movies, but they both look good. Good icons, too! I really like #11. :)

[urban-tea.livejournal.com]

Okay, replying to my own comment, pretty pathetic. But I forgot to say that I really want to see MA too! It looks so ... pretty!

[plasticprincess.livejournal.com]

hurrah! great icons :) wasn't the movie fantastic? I knew it was going to be good but not that good. And go see Marie Antoinette, Sophia Coppola is a genius; I saw it while I lived in Paris this spring and it was so fabulous :)

[serenstar.livejournal.com]

I love #9. Great movie, though the end was definitely tragic. Hubby's from Boston so we couldn't miss this one.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Haha that one is pretty funny. He did wear lavender more than once in the movie!

[crickets.livejournal.com]

You = Needs to see it.

It rocks like woah!

[crickets.livejournal.com]

True story!
