More meme-ing...
For miss_jaffacake, Top 5 Favorite Pokemon
1. I had a Luxray that I absolutely adored, nicknamed the Jackal. I named all of my Pearl team after people from General Hospital. ^_^
2. Piplup, for the purely girly reason that it's SO STINKING CUTE. =^^= I mean, come on. Tiny little baby blue penguin? How can I resist!?
3. QUAGSIRE. I nicknamed mine "Quiggie". I still maintain that it is one of the most perfect pokemon for battle, because it's both Water and Ground-type, so it's got resistance to almost everything. At least, all the types you're most likely to encounter in battle. I always, always, always have one on my team.
4. Pikachu has got to be on this list, since I was one of THOSE little girls when Pokemon originally came out. ^^ I LOVED Pikachu. Not all Pikachus, though, I loved Ash's Pikachu. His Pikachu had a higher level of badassery than most. XD Trufax.
5. Eevee is still one of the greats. Not ONLY can it evolve into whatever type your team is lacking, but I just love Eevee itself. It's got the cutest little sound, and it looks like a little bunny-cat. SOCUTE. Reminds me strongly of Ryo-Ohki from "Tenchi Muyo!".
For miss_jaffacake, Top 5 Favorite Musicals. Note that this list is HIGHLY subject to change depending on what mood I'm in and what music I'm listening to at the time. XD I tend to musical-binge.
1."Wicked", for reasons previously stated. XD I'm so predictable...but it really did have a profound impact on me.
2. "Legally Blonde", because it is SUCH an improvement from the movie, which was also wonderful, but didn't go as deep into the characters as the musical was able to. Plus, the OBC was excellently cast, what with Orfeh as Paulette and Christian Borle as Emmett (ASD;GKJAS;GAS;DFKA). Emmett and Elle are so freaking adorable in this musical, it put them right up in my Top 3 OTPs.
3. "Peter Pan", for reasons which should be self-explanatory. XD
4. "Little Women" because it's got it's happy and optimistic songs, but also songs that deal with darker themes. It's incredibly sweet and incredibly empowering.
5. "Scrubs: My Musical", just for kicks. I LOVE THIS SHOW. And I really do listen to the soundtrack quite often, if not just to hear Dr. Cox speak-sing in true Gilbert and Sullivan style.
For miss_jaffacake, Top 5 Favorite Disney Movies. All of these, coincidentally, are also musicals.
1. ALADDIN. X3 I mean, come on. Hottie Aladdin runs around for 3/4 of the movie practically bare-chested. @_@ (And I am not above appreciating this, despite the fact that he is, in fact, animated.) Plus, Jasmine was always my favorite Disney Princess when I was little, because a) I loved her hair and b) She had a pet tiger, AWESOMESAUCE.
2. Finding Nemo, a total feel-good, warm-n-fuzzies movie with Ellen Degeneres being amazing. Hard to beat.
3. The Lion King, another feel-good movie with feel-good music, plus "Circle of Life" always makes me feel EPIC. Also, point of interest, it was the first movie I ever remember seeing in theaters.
4. The Little Mermaid, because it was always my Dad's favorite so I grew up watching it. ^_^ I always forget how good it is, until I see it again and I'm LIEKWHOA.
5. Mulan. Yay female empowerment! Yay for Eddie Murphy playing another comedic relief sidekick and doing it awesome! Yay for Donny Osmond singing as a buff, hot asian man! (another point of interest, Shang was voiced by Jackie Chan for the movie's China release. YES. I APPROVE.)
(and even though no one else will think this is cool, except for maybe abscondinabox, the Shang we all know and love is voiced by B.D. Wong, who played Linus in the "You're A Good Man Charlie Brown" revival, which I also adore. Cool, eh? ^_^)
For haro, Top 5 Favorite Harry Potter Characters
1. Ron Weasley. I was SO INCREDIBLY HAPPY that he became badass like I always knew he would be in Book 7. That was one of the highest points in the book for me.
2. Ginny Weasley, because she's spunky and brave and she doesn't take no for an answer. I like that. ^^
3. Fred and George Weasley, particularly Fred. I love how JKR makes both of the twins *different*, despite how spectacularily they work together as a unit, because that's true to life. And Fred's always been my favorite twin. T_T
4. Luna Lovegood. Whenever she has dialogue, I find myself speaking her lines aloud because they're just SO MUCH FUN to say. Maybe it's the actress in me.
5. Ummm... Tonks? I love her mad animagus skills, and I love that she actually fell in love with Remus like fandom said she would and I didn't believe. ^_^
