thoughts spurred by new BBC Emma!

One day, I'd like to post about these things:

1) The lecture I heard once on how Emma is a maturation of Sense and Sensibility.
2) The Gwenyth Paltrow Emma versus the Kate Beckinsale one (*waves flag for latter*)
3) How girls in period costume with modern accoutrement make me feel funny (a la here:
)
4) Whether Romola Garai looks like Katee Sackhoff, a la the great Connor // Jackson Browne debate.
5) How I miss good old days at Republic of Pemberley.
6) Me and Jane Austen! In particular: Emma
7) My hopes for the new BBC Emma, inspired via this picspam!

this is kinda off topic... but number 2 made me think of this (2) The Gwenyth Paltrow Emma versus the Kate Beckinsale one (*waves flag for latter*))

did you every watch Much Ado About Nothing? whenever i hear Kate's name, that is always one of the first things i think about. plus it always makes me giggle a little to see so many big name actors in it... it's rather enjoyable! and... though not the Emma you are talking about... gotta love Emma Thompson in it... her speech at the end to Benedick about killing someone for her... gah!
