School, Movies, and Icons
*
First, school started back up for me this week. I'm taking three classes this semester, two on campus, and one online. Well, they all have an online component, and one of the on campus ones is actually a compressed video course being streamed in from the school's other campus. I need to pass two of them with a C or better for my degree program. Not to worried about the European Short Story class, but the American Literature one could prove to be a big pain in my ass. Glad the Women and Gender Studies class is looking like it should be a lot of fun.
Second, I finally got to see the last of the "summer movies" I wanted to see before school started. Yeah, I know, I didn't manage to see the last one before the first week of school. I tried. I can rank them from most favorite to least. They go-- 1) Minions, 2) Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation, 3) Avengers: Age of Ultron, and 4) Jurassic World. The last one is the only one I didn't go to twice. I was really disappointed by the writing for it. Chris Pratt and the velociraptors were good, but the rest... I rank MI:RN higher than A:AoU because I liked more of the action sequences in MI:RN, I liked how they treated their single female lead better than how A:AoU treated BW and Wanda combined, and MI:RN had plenty of Jeremy Renner in it too. Only way I liked A:AoU better was that it had Chris Evans in it.
Third, I posted in the comments of an ealier post how I've made some Daryun/Narus icons from art for the new version of The Herioc Legend of Arslan/Arslan Senki, and I want to be sure I get them posted in an original post. Not sure who cares about them, but I want people to see them so...
