Back Home!
Phew. I finally finished my film noir X-Men: First Class fanfic "Dial M For Mutant", and it's clocked in at 42 pages in Word. It's the longest thing I've ever written! Before this fandom anyone who know me will tell you my stuff was usually just one shots or drabbles (with the exception of one of my Inception fics, "Back To The Start", which ended

My dad is a film school brat, and my uncle is a professor of media studies, and the two of them combined their powers to mold me into a super!movie nerd. It doesn't hurt that I have a precise but weirdly specific memory (I have the entire script of "Re-Animator" memorized, but I can't remember what 9 X 7 is) and waaaay to much free time. I was that kid in the playground extolling the virtues of Larisa Shepitko (obscure Soviet director, don't ask) and then getting shut in a locker (I got out because I went through a period of obsession with Harry Houdini).
That sounds like a really interesting movie; I'm going to have to hunt it down. Thanks for the recommendation :)
Hicox forces his eyes up to the screen because after all, he's a film critic, and a proper British gentleman, and his editor isn't going to be happy when his review of the film is six-hundred incoherent words about Kruger's calloused palm. But even with his eyes averted he can't possibly focus, not when Kruger lets out a muted chuckle and drags the pad of his thumb over the circumcised head of Hicox's cock, teasing at the slit maddeningly. Hicox's eyes flutter closed, and his breath catches in his throat, and he decides that his editor can go to Hell.
*Evil cackle*
OH THANK GOD. I was having a serious crisis of morals there for a minute. Also, "I Can't Believe It's Not Nazis" should be a real thing, I'm not even fucking kidding. I would spread Kruger on my toast like fucking marmalade.

EXCELLENT! :D I think I only avoided being stuffed in a locker by being too tall and too fat for the lockers. :/
*salutes* DON'T get the 2002 version!
I can't add to that. My brain's moved a few sex scenes on to Hicox showing Kruger the correct way to choke on his cock or Kruger hauling Hicox (AKA The Thinnest Man in the World) up by grabbing his arse.
I should tell you the one about Kruger fellating a flick-knife at Red Skull's command...
YAY! CRISIS AVERTED! The only actual Nazis who feature last about 30secs before Red Skull zaps them with an energy weapon. Everyone else is HYDRA. Which is useful, 'cause comic canon says Kruger was Gestapo and that's prettttttttttty difficult to handwave. :S I was prepared to give it a go, though! Take Kruger's projected 3mins of screentime and expand it to make him a Gestapo washout who drinks too much, smokes too much, can't fucking SLEEP 'cause he's seen the Final Solution in practice, and he was THAT far away from eating a bullet when Red Skull recruited him... And that's just ONE trapdoor I'd thought up.
Y'see, this is the problem I have with Landa. He LOVES being a Nazi. He LOVES killing Jews. He KNOWS about the death camps and the genocide. It's pretty fucking nigh on impossible to retcon his canon and give him a conscience or replace his soul. And yet... Christoph Waltz. The ONLY man in that movie I'd fuck ahead of Fassbender. Oh, Tarantino, you sonofabitch! *fistshake* Y U DO THIS?! :(

Sorry I'm ranting, I just really needed a hug today and there was no one here to give me one ;_;

If it helps, reality is what makes the internet a necessity. I'd've gone crazy without it. :D
Y'know, you're the first drama geek I've run into who I can trade non-blockbuster/made-over-20-years-ago movie recs with? *glomp*
