She makes me contented and happy as she drives me insane with worry.<\/p>\n<p>I just saw the new trailer for Colonia, and as a hardcore celebriphiliac, I am excited as hell.  Moments like these are why I live.  The movie looks fun, cool, and sexy; and beyond that, this trailer promises great things for Watson herself.  Today, she\u2019s finally moved beyond Hermione Grainger and established herself as a power in her own right in the celebrisphere- she\u2019s Emma Watson, a talented actor.  <\/p>\n<p>Yeah, she\u2019s finally done it, and I couldn\u2019t be more happy for her.  <\/p>\n<p>Well\u2026 to be more accurate, <i>we<\/i> did it, and I couldn&#8217;t be more happy for us.<\/p>\n<p>Watson\u2019s been one of my big projects.  She\u2019s been project #3, behind Swift and Elle Fanning.  I never told her this, but for the past eight years, I\u2019ve purposely avoided watching or having anything at all to do with Harry Potter specifically because I wanted this transition to go smoothly.  So I never finished watching the movies, in spite of how I wanted to.  And so I never read the books, even though I wanted to.  And I never fantasized- not even once- about Hermione, in spite of the massive crush I had on her character back in the day.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019ll all change, believe me, now that the Emma Watson project is done.  That\u2019ll DEFINITELY change.  I mean, I\u2019m a real wizard that loves cinema, for God\u2019s sake- and one who is actually in love with the <em>real <\/em>Emma Watson!  And I haven\u2019t even seen <i>half<\/i> the Harry Potter movies!!! <\/p>\n<p>I <i>need<\/i> to watch them.  I have to.  I\u2019m just so damn curious about them.  I want to see how the story ends and also if maybe there is a reference or two to me in there, somewhere (I\u2019ll bet there is!).<\/p>\n<p>But back to Watson\u2026 what I wanted most for her was longevity.  I wanted her to feel comfortable exploring things outside the Potterverse, and so I did what I could to open new vistas in her subconsciousness to separate her from it.  <\/p>\n<p>Things started to click internally years ago, and publicly with the UN speech and #HeForShe, but now with Colonia it looks like the rocket is finally taking off.  Wonderful!  It was worth it, then.  All of the effort, all of the energy, all of the hard work\u2026 it was worth it.  <\/p>\n<p>I did it!<\/p>\n<p>Great.  Now\u2026 I need to deal with the consequences.  <\/p>\n<p>Oy!<\/p>\n<p>So, I love Emma.  Obviously.  But in that trailer, <i>she kissed another guy<\/i>.  A guy who, although he is not more handsome or famous or appealing than me, is nevertheless someone who is well-known and successful in his own right.  Which is good, I guess, I mean, seeing sexy celebrities do that stuff is fun, but\u2026 <i>she\u2019s my fucking girlfriend<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>AAARRRRRRGGGGHHHH<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s OK.  I mean, <i>I made this happen<\/i>.  Yes, it was\u2026 intentional.  So it\u2019s OK.<\/p>\n<p>Breathe, Tom, breathe!<\/p>\n<p>Oy.  <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s OK, I guess.  So, it\u2019s done.  <\/p>\n<p>Good job, Tom!  Good job, Emma!<\/p>\n<p>We did it!<\/p>\n<p>Now, we just need to live with it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>is the cause of enormous consternation.
