Stuff I Forgot to Say in My Last Post

Aug 19, 2009 19:08

I saw three movies! The Proposal, Orphen, and Ponyo. The Proposal wasn't good at all--semi-funny, sure, but I've seen Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds both do such better work. Still, it was kind of cute. Orphen freaked me the fuck out, srsly. What a weird, freaky as all fuck movie. URGH. And Ponyo... SUCKED ASS. DDD: Why, Miyazaki, why?!?! After ( Read more... )

Bones. ^_^

Other than that I'm doing pretty good.

Also, wtf? I didn't even know Miyazaki had a new movie out! For reals, srsly?!! I don't feel quite as bad if it sucked that hardcore though. What are your favorite Miyazaki films?

Lol, twitter. I don't even really use mine. Who is this Maya? if you don't mind my asking

LOL, of course. There will be more Bones. I'm deciding if I should have him try and talk to Spock alone or not. XP

Yep, Ponyo! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0876563/ It came out in the theater I always go to, so obviously I went. I hated it, but I think that's b/c I wasn't expecting what I got. It's directed at 5-year-olds, more or less. *shrugs* My favorite Miyazaki films are definitely Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle. I like the ones that are more serious and that have better love stories. Oh, but Kiki's Delivery Service and Princess Mononoke also rocked! ♥

Twitter can be annoying, occasionally. Maya is a famous fanfic author for Harry Potter, specifically Harry/Draco fans. She's now using the lj name sarahtales, although she was known as a few other things. She took all her fanfic off the internet when she got published, which annoyed a bunch of fans including myself, because her fic's considered some of the greatest H/D fic that can be found. I've got a PDF of all her fic, but still. It's not the same. ;_;

Hmmmm, I'm not sure he would at this point in time. But you know your Bones better than me. ::grins::

Ah~ I think I'll still see it but I'll keep that in mind when I do. My favorites are Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away and My Neighbor Totoro. But Kiki's Delivery Service and Howl's Moving Castle were pretty rockin'. The only one I wasn't particulary fond of was Porko Rosso.

That sucks lameness. >.< How did she find your twitter though? I mean, really?

I don't think he would yet. WHICH IS SAD. B/c I totally have this scene already partially written and I am JUST DYING to use it. *headdesk*

I never saw Porko Rosso b/c I'd heard bad things about it. And I didn't particularly like Castle in the Sky, either. It's probably a good idea to see Ponyo regardless--giving it money means it's more likely we'll get more anime films in theaters, right? *crosses fingers*

IT DOES INDEED SUCK LAMENESS. I have no fucking clue how she found my twitter. She said she constantly googled her name (and I guess lines from her fics or whatever) b/c she's got a problem with people re-posting her fics everywhere without her consent. I hate it when people re-post without the author's consent, but I still think it's weird that she found my twitter. It's not like it's FFN or something. SRSLY. *shrugs*

If I say Fizzbin again are you gonna whack me? How about crew reflections of Kirk-led away missions gone wrong (through no fault of his own) XD ( ... )

LOL, I still haven't gotten there! But I'm very excited to see this game now. XP I'm thinking some crew gossip about Kirk would be hella fun to write. \o/

I think Ponyo really did have a focus that was intended more for five year olds to appreciate and enjoy. I mean, I was telling siriuslyyellow and another friend basically the same thing. Why did those adults constantly let these two kids continue on their way? It was strange. And there was some weirdo shit going down just generally. We saw the movie at about 9:30-ish, so there were very few kids. It was mostly Japanese people and otaku in our theater. Which meant the comments said during the movie were amazing beyond all belief. XD

LMFAO!1 Yes, her random ghetto dancing was amazing. Still, not too great. Meh. Why not spend a girls night out watching slash, that's what I say! \o/

It was cute, sure, but definitely not as good as SA or H, I totally agree. I think it was just getting hype b/c at this point, anything Miyazaki does get hype. He's just that powerful and popular now. I don't get the difference in advertisement, though, that's for sure.

LOL, I'm working on it, so hopefully you'll like it! ♥

IT SUCKS MAJOR ASS. Don't go see it. It's a waste of money, IMHO. I hope Miyazaki's next will be more up to his usual standards.

I haven't seen Ponyo, it just looks so childish, so yay for someone finally thinking the same way! \o/ Sorry you had to see it.

kowaiyoukai August 22 2009, 15:23:16 UTC
You know, even though it looked childish I was willing to put my original thoughts aside b/c usually Miyazaki puts out good stuff. But this time I felt like it was really crap. IDEK. It sucks b/c this is the first time I've seen one of his movies in an actual theater, and it had to suck. *le sigh*
