You do know that OldBoy is one of my favourite movies of all time, right? As in, I absolutely adore every aspect of that movie above all others.

"Laugh, and the world laughs with you. Weep, and you weep alone." I have that permanently inked on my arm. The poem itself is beautiful and icredibly fitting. Gah, the hours...

And there it is, mention of Predator as well... if you even hint, a sliver of some fandom towards Alien(s) I will curse the Earth for not breaking into Canananananaland and sitting down for a delicious conversation with you.

Actually, have you ever readthe graphic novels for Predator/Aliens/Aliens VS. Predator? The absurd 80's perspective of space clothing design and hatchet one-liners makes it entertaining. Plus, it has Aliens. Mmmmm.

And doctors are for the weak. Purge whatever it may be with fire and brimstone.

I like the dream.

Aaaaa, I'm so delighted by the number of people who've seen Oldboy! That movie blew my mind and I just love it. I tried watching Lady Vengeance recently, but it didn't have the same kick. Still got to check out the director's other films. Nothing's going to top Oldboy, but it's worth a look. :x

lmao, I have to tell you the truth: I had a minor crush on the Predator from the original film when I was like ... twelve. I could not help it, I HAVE ALWAYS LIKED MASKED THINGS. And mandibles. Perfect combination, really! XD I've got a small handful of the comics, but don't consider myself well-versed. I NEED MORE. Especially since AVPR was so terrible. You'd think a movie about Aliens and Predators would just write itself, but the two attempts made so far have just been kind of meh. I think I'm better off sticking with all the canon produced in the 80s and 90s. <3

Someday, my friend. Someday we are just going to settle into a cafe or whatever, and we are just going to talk. :DDD

Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance... words are somewhat hard to put together for this film. It makes you feel empty on all fronts. Besides Now and Then, Here and There, no movie has just left me speechless and void of happiness for its context. Brutal would possibly be the best wording, and not for the violent scenes. The overall premise of the film is almost choking. OldBoy, to me, wrapped up many many ideals and perspectives on the human personality for it to steal my heart. I adore all three Vengeance films though ( ... )

Haha, WELL YOU WERE A RATHER DASHING CONSTRUCT OF THE NETHERPLANE.

omgomgomgomg, so. There's new Predator movie out this year! I hold out no hope that it will be, you know, good. But I can't help being shriekingly excited by the very idea. I'm s-such a fantard, there's no denying it anymore. DX

That's what they all say. :D

Would you believe it's one of my first fandoms? I am a complete dork for all things Predator and Alien, I can't even. ASPoduqw I've read most of the comics to boot.
