I don't think it's any kind of secret what a ridiculous level of fangirl glee I have for the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. So, I have a confession. It's going to be shocking. I actually haven't read the Black Dossier. You know, the League book that came out, oh, last year? I bought it almost as soon as it was released. And it has sat on ( Read more... )

Awawawawah... holy. Watchmen posters from Comicon.

They have quotes. They have quotes on the freaking posters. Oh, and I figure a lot of people must be doing these -- shot-by-shot comparisons between the trailer with the comic. I think my excitement for this movie might be reaching extremely dangerous levels. It's gone way past "hey, this ( Read more... )

WHO WATCHES THE WATCHMEN? I DOOOOOOI think I love how they did Dr. Manhattan. He looks really creepy and almost ghost-like, like he's really not part of this plane of existence. He is very cg-looking though; I'd have to see more scenes of him actually moving around and talking before I can make up my mind if it works or not. But either way, it' ( Read more... )

I'm trying to maintain a cautious outlook on the Watchmen movie; it's one of those things that could so, so easily be a complete disaster, and if I set my expectations firmly at "mediocrity", whatever the outcome, it's sure to be a lot less painful. But it's very hard not to get excited over stuff like this. Holy shit AAAAAAH RORSCHACH <3 ( Read more... )

Wachowski Brother #1: Dude, we should totally make a movie -- "The Phantom of the Opera versus the Bush Administration". Hey, what's that you're reading?
Wachowski Brother #2: Oh, some comic book.Long ago somebody (I forget who) lent us a copy of V for Vendetta. I never got around to reading it, and months later it was returned, unread. I'm ( Read more... )

Finally got my hair cut this afternoon. It had actually gotten long enough to tie back, God forbid! I commemorate the occasion with a meme I had far too much fun with (you can tell).

1. Go to the Elouai doll maker2. Make an ordinary doll of yourself and save it ( Read more... )

Went to Saki's place today. She'd managed to acquire a copy of the old 1978 Swan Lake anime. Heh heh, the makers of Princess Tutu must have watched this movie -- not only does Prince Siegfried look fairly girly, he even stabs himself through the heart with a sword (at which point the bad guys are inexplicably magically defeated)! Rothbart was ( Read more... )

Ten whole pages of SomethingAwful.com photoshopped Watchmen parodies... but the most priceless by far is the very last one on this page. OH YEAH~!

I went here and listened to some recordings of Jeff Rowland, the guy who does WIGU, being interviewed for this radio show. I really really love WIGU (and I long for a Sheriff Pony plushie), but I had ( Read more... )

Here's that meme, where you enter your name into fanfiction.net's search engine and post the summaries of the worst-sounding Mary Sues you find. ( Andrea Sue strikes! )
