So we watched the IRIS movie. It's called, funnily enough, IRIS: The Movie. It's also twenty hours of television edited into just under two hours, with new scenes.

Exactly.

Let us delve into the intricacies of said "film", as I attempt to explain my thoughts and feelings to you in an intelligent and thought-provoking manner.

I just read about this on the IRIS wikipedia page and had the same reaction. WHY WOULD THIS BE A GOOD IDEA?

Also, MP/Jarod fic WILL happen, even if I have to go a wee bit crazy to do so.

I CAN'T EVEN EXPLAIN THE WTFERY. There are bad wigs, and you shouldn't be reading spoilers, missy!

Of course it will happen. It's Valentines Day, and we must remember The Saddest Little Valentine for the epic novel of epicness it is.

No spoilers, promise! I just saw that they made a WTF movie, condensing 20 hrs into 2 because someone was horrid-stupid. And that there's Athena, and then some sort of sequel made with Seon Hwa, and hi, she's what I really care about, so. :)

In all honesty, it becomes the Teeth (Hyun Joon) and Boring Variety 2-Hours. But it's amazing to see how they managed to edit it AND add more scenes - plus, I totally believe it when reality TV stars say it's the editing that makes them look bad :|

The film premiered in Japan while I was there, but I couldn't convince the peeps I was with to see it without subtitles, and my Korean only really goes as far as singing Happy Birthday and making plans to meet at the cinema so far. I'm kind of glad I didn't pay to see it, though. I'm pretty fucking bitter, actually.
