I love the scene in Lucia di Lammermoor when the Vikings burst in and raise hell.

Actually, a really cool poster.

Was that during the wedding, and the REAL reason for the madness?

When she starts singing, "Hoya toyo!" along with a chorus of zaftig sopranos. That's how you can tell she's mad.

Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't a song from Lucia di Lammermoor in The Fifth Element with Bruce Willis, portrayed/sung by a tentacled blue alien? I seem to remember it vaguely in a techno/dance remix, as sung by Sarah Brightman?

[low-fat-muffin.livejournal.com]

you are exactly correct actually :)

Heh. Got it on my mp3 player now :)

Methinks your Donizetti anticipates Wagner!
