That's from "As You Like It", right? Err...I guess I'm sort of a geek..I'm pretty sure I'm right, and that Branaugh-butt hasn't touched it yet. Man that guy's a douche.
I watched "Love Labour's Lost" last weekend (because of Alessandro...ooooh "June Bug". So dreamy...) with my boyfriend, and then got really frustrated because I think he's the world's biggest DOUCHE and my boyfriend will defend him till the death just because he was in frickin HARRY POTTER. AS A DOUCHE.
Grrrr!!

Ummm....but other than that, I voted for citrus! You can never find good oranges in winter, and oranges are delicious.... :D

NOT ORANGES!

KUMQUATS! Sheesh, what's the matter with you people?

And I love Love's Labours Lost. I haven't ever seen the movie, though - I heard it was terrible. The play was funny, though. :D

Course, all the rhyming made my head hurt. Poor Byron!

Kenneth Branaugh? Ugh. Hated him ever since he tried to screw up Hamlet and my english teacher tried to insist it was a masterpiece. :x

One of the lines was from Eisenstien's silent film "October." Another was from... I can't remember... some weird old French film. The teddy bear one was mine. ^_^;

Edit: Godard. @.@ That's his name. The spiral one was from a French film by Lean-Luc Godard, I believe. I kinda reminded me of Marimaia's line about endless waltzes...

One day, we will all look back on this moment, laugh nervously and change the subject.

Rosey, your fic was lovely, and the movie was silly. I don't know what happened to Alicia Silverstone, but I think Kenneth Branaugh had something to do with it.

Hmmm...well, I'm reading through...Rose, I dunno about another 12 week thing. It's adorable, but we're doing it already at the community...plus, this is supposed to be specifically holiday centric, right?

Hmmm...what about...pillow talk? Holiday pillow talk? Something holiday in the middle of the night?
:-? *thinking*

Like maybe there's that line in that Christmas story about it "all being silent--all through the house. No one was stirring, not even a mouse"?? But it won't be quiet? Because of...BLANK??
Eh?

Oh, wait, we've decided on cuddling. Ummm....title...
How about "One Last Candle Burning Low"? I'm ripping it from the poem "Mistletoe" by Walter de la Mare.

I think you're on to something with the Night Before Christmas idea...

OMG. How badly do you guys hate AU's?

btw - that wasn't a plug for my ficcy, and I heard that Alicia Silverstone singing was horrifying (but, I usually like her)

I think we should do something different from the 1xR LJ community challenge, simply because it'll give members of both a reprieve from doing essentially the same thing twice. I do happen to really like Cali's 12 Positions ditty and I think it'd be a fun citrus challenge (I need my citrus, dammit!). :D
