ROB IN THE QUEEN OF THE DESERT TRAILER FINALLY ARRIVED!!!  Yes I’m excited and twirling and excited.  I woke up this morning to make sure it wasn’t a dream.  Of course I KNEW this would happen when I was laptop free over the weekend.  But I don’t mind I’ll make that sacrifice just so we can finally see Rob as T E Lawrence legitimately.  Let’s just take a moment here to appreciate the trailer which I had secretly hoped would match my favourite film (cinematography wise) which was The English Patient.  I think it’s going to give it a run for its money because the cinematography that we’ve glimpsed in the trailer is stunning.  Even Nicole, who I have admitted in the past I am not a huge fan of, seems to nail it in the scenes they’ve shown.  I really don’t know what I was expecting with a lot of the negative reviews that came out of Berlin, but it sure as hell wasn’t what I watched.  I hope we get confirmation soon from Transmission that the release is imminent (for our Kiwi followers I’ve sent an email to double check that it will be released at the same time as Oz and will let you know as soon as I know.  Transmission does distribute both in Oz and NZ though).  Since I’m on a QotD high, we had a new release date for Switzerland (German) (the cinema also listed LIFE that we already knew about, but still good to see it in print like that) and well the stills are coming out thick and fast.  I had to laugh when Vertigo said we probably won’t get too many stills otherwise we will see Rob’s entire role in pictures.  Truth!  But then we DID get some more stills. how beautiful are those stills we’ve been treated to.  I’m loving them probably a little too much.  I’m also stoked that it didn’t even take 36 hours for my request of that teeny tiny version we saw on Friday to be released in HQ.  Things also look like they are moving ahead with The Childhood of a Leader too.  Megan Wynn tweeted that she was on a shoot for a major publication with photographer Tom Munro.  Google him if you need to know.  He has done some major fashion and celebrity shoots for Vogue, Vanity Fair and Harper’s Bazaar not to mention directing Madonna’s “Give It To Me” video so …. expect something amazing (even if Rob isn’t involved, but we know for fact that TCoaL’s production team are keeping everything very under the radar so there’s hope he was).  Brady Corbet seems to have surrounded himself with some stellar people.  Another of which is Scott Walker who is doing the soundtrack and whom David Jancso also teased us about.  And that was just Wednesday.  I think it needed to be renamed Wishing My Life Away Wednesday.  I need these films in my life stat.  Michelle treated us to a walk down memory lane with Vanity Fair Rob … sigh.    As I mentioned my laptop is currently being fixed so I’ve had to beg, borrow and steal to get online occasionally this week (ok that’s an exaggeration but you know what I mean).   The iPad is great, but it really doesn’t compare to my laptop.    I found that The Rover is available on DVD in Romania in my hunt for Maps to the Stars.  I am also in a lather as to which Rob to vote for in Michelle’s incredibly difficult July choices for 12 Months of Rob (I taught her too well).  Did you read, the lucky French are getting LIFE 2 weeks earlier than they originally were expecting. Lucky peeps.  But then the world sort of righted itself and it gave us 3 HQ pics of Rob in Sydney from the Breaking Dawn 2 photocall.  I remember somebody sent me a photo of that pier the day after that shoot happened *cough* not mentioning any names *cough*.  I thought I was going to be excited this week just from the fact that in 24 hours or so Brimstone starts filming.  Martin Koolhoven tweeted “Retribution is coming” and I couldn’t be happier that it is.  Whether Rob’s on set or not doesn’t matter since at least the film will be kicking off and I will be one very surprised person if we get any glimpse of Rob on set given Martin Koolhoven’s comment last month.  I’m hoping that no sneak peeks are unleashed unless they want them to be unleashed.  Fingers crossed.  And as you can see Jules couldn’t quite decide which version our RPAU Week in Review poster she liked better and neither could I so I posted both.  Oh and before I go “BRIMSTONE IS COMING”.  Until next week …
