Writing Updates: The Nightmare - Wanted
Been reading It. I just finished up section 2. I’m looking forward to seeing how the gang reacts to each other now that they’re all adults! Especially Stan. I’m four hundred pages in and I’m trying to decide if I like it or not, it’s well written - more or less. But at the same time, I’m not scared of more than mildly curious. I don’t really have an “OMA I NEED TO READ” attitude. I wonder if it’s just because I don’t scare very easily.
Also watched a few episodes of Power Rangers. Okay. Zordon, I get it. You want to boost team morale and bring Tommy back. I respect that. Everyone’s happy. But making him the leader? That I don’t get that. Jason’s been the leader (and a damn good one - YOU SAID SO YOURSELF) up to this point. Give Tommy new powers make him the leader, I don’t think anyone but Cherri and I heard you say that. I mean really?! This isn’t all Jason bias either. It’s a “WHAT THE HELL ZORDON.” What’s the grounds for Tommy being the leader? Wouldn’t it have made sense to talk to Jason and Tommy about it? Just BAM. Tommy’s leader and everyone accepts it (even though Jason has more presence)? It seems so awkward. I don’t know how I accepted that as a kid (Oh wait, it might have been Tommy-bias). It’s not like Jason would have had a problem with it, the two are friends. You know, they’d make it work. They made everything work. And I guess that works for a reason that Jason’s no longer leader, but I can’t imagine that would be very easy (since he is arrogant and it strikes me as being so weird for him to relinquish control; he takes a lot on himself and I think he feels best when he’s in charge of situations).
Gah, I also didn’t realize how many plot holes the movie had growing up. Now it seems like all I do is pause and ask Cherri to clarify things for me. Oh and screech, “You’re not Jason!” and squee at Adam’s pouty face. OMA, and Tommy forgets like everything! Is that the kind of guy you want to be leader?! ;w; Dear Jason, I miss you.
I slept fairly well last night though, so I’m in a good mood. Even though I’m ranting about a kid’s show.
Also at 4 AM someone called me. They said something that sounded like “love” a few times and I said Hello a few times and they were like “who is this?” which really annoys me. Because they called me! (I think it’s rude.) So I tell ‘em and then they hung up on me. It was really disorienting, you know, because it was 4 in the friggin’ morning.
