I mentioned going through my Kindle and pulling funniest of the typos and comments I've made on it. People seemed to be really into that, so I'll do that this weekend ( Read more... )

I don't know how I never noticed before, but the fight scenes in the original Highlander movie are really shitty. o_O

EDIT: In the Highlander universe, no one gets wrinkles. Seriously. Connor's wife when she dies? White haired, but perfectly flawless skin. The lady that he rescued in WWII and is now his secretary? Cheeks as smooth as a baby's ( Read more... )

I'd rather read a terrible romance novel than a terrible sci-fi or fantasy novel. Because the worst romance novel I have every read (and trust me, there is no lack of contenders for that title) is still more put together and believable than the worst sci-fi/fantasy I've read ( Read more... )

After watching the first episode of the new Teen Wolf series, I can now safely identify all the character in fic. From now on, I think the only contact I'll be having with that series is fic because it cannot be any worse than the 40 minutes of shitastic, teenage angst (with gorilla werewolves) that I just watched. Maybe the series gets better, but ( Read more... )

Obviously, Netflix did not send miome and me the fangirl copy of X-Men: First Class because that movie was terrible. I don't know what annoyed me more: the fact that they changed locations every five minutes in the movie, the totally useless scene in the French bank, how absolutely shallow every character but Raven was, the complete lack of chemistry ( Read more... )

So I was reading a fanfic the other day, and while it had interesting parts, there was one aspect that wound up annoying the ever loving crap out of me. I'm not going to say for what fandom because really, the characters were so OOC that they might as well have been original. However, they were interesting characters in their own right, which was ( Read more... )

Movie:"They say that some lives are bound together through the ages..."
Miome: They say that some people shouldn't use Papyrus.
Tsaiko: They say some people are typographical idiots.

And the movie pretty much went downhill from there.

So one of the things I've been watching on Netflix is the A-Team. Watching it is something of a cultural shock. I mean, I knew things had changed in the nearly 30 years since it came out (1983 was the first season), but you don't realize just how much until you watch it.

Well, over the last few days I've read two books: Sunshine by Robin McKinley and The Black Gryphon by Mercedes Lackey (and Larry Dixon if the cover of my copy is to be believed). Sunshine was something I'd been meaning to read, but hadn't gotten around to. The Black Gryphon is an old favorite of mine that I've read so many times that the spine is ( Read more... )

miome and I went to see "How to Train Your Dragon." It was awesome. The animation in particular was spectacular and the character designs (especially the dragons) were fantastic. I love how the dragons moved and looked. It's nice to see dragons that don't have the same basic look of Draco from Dragonheart. Not that there was anything wrong with ( Read more... )
