Well, I say we get drunk, because I'm all out of ideas.

Sometimes, I feel a bit out of place on the internet, like I'm not the right age.

I wasn't old enough to be seduced by the Sheriff of Nottingham's charms when I saw Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves in the theatre.

I was too old to have Harry Potter be where I learned Alan Rickman's name.

No, I fell in love with Alan Rickman through Dogma and it was that film that made me think, even though the age was wrong, that he would be absolutely perfect when they announced he would be playing Snape.



And to me, that ending is perfect, that's how I want to think of him now...standing beside God, perhaps taking requests about what she'd love to hear from that voice.

I never saw Dogma but I want to.

It's been ages since I saw Dogma. :)
Hugs, Jon

I love Dogma! (and not just because it was filmed in my state ;) amazing cast, witty writing, and metatron is the shit!!!

My definitive Rickman role too.

Dogma is such a great movie.

Thank you for showing this since I forgot how good most of the movie was. Yes, Rickman was spot on perfect as Metatron.

I have to wonder what Bethany's child is doing now?

Alan's the only thing that makes that movie watchable, but his performance was enough to make me spend money on it, which is not something I would do with a KS movie otherwise. I mean could there be any other voice of god?

Of course, he's also the only reason I watch the HP films, given how they mangled the books, Sense & Sensibility, despite the fact I loathe Jane Austen, and, of course, he's the best thing about Robin Hood. So just goes to show Alan could get me to watch just about anything. lol

Truly, Madly, Deeply, though, is quintessential Alan. I want to watch it badly, but I can't get myself to put the disc in, because I know I'd be a total wreck before it even got to THE scene at the end.

I loved him in Sense and Sensibility and then when he came across my screen while watching Dogma, I yelled "Colonel Brandon" and started bouncing in my chair. :D
