You Are Noble And Poetic In Defeat.

So question of the day: is Into the Blue as intensely homoerotic as The Fast and the Furious or is there another movie out there where guys spend the entire two hours eye-fucking each other and not even pretending to be into the hot women playing their girlfriends? And how much does this have to do with Paul Walker having more chemistry with dudes ( Read more... )

It's such a terrible movie, but it's beautifully filmed and everyone is ridiculously gorgeous in it and Bryce and Jared are so totally boyfriends that it's not even funny.

Vin and Paul sizzle with new love, Paul and Scott sizzle with old-married couple love. Either way, we win! :D

The director even talked about their love for each other and their "interesting" bond! And then Paul talked about how much he loved Scott and Scott sat close enough to Paul to kiss him and I am amazed at how in love they are with each other. :D

Honestly, it's a terrible movie. I watch it on mute because most of the dialogue makes me want to hit myself with sticks. But it's so pretty and epically slashy and Scott in shorts and nothing else is always worthwhile. :D

I am so glad you liked it, bibi! ♥

LOL But if there's an epic bromance, surely that warrants at least one watch? Hee

♥ Dude, your banter is wonderful and your porn is scorching hot! Just sayin'

You are so prolific with the H5-0 het fic. I am loving it, and also jealous of it. :D

This was so damn good, Max. I especially love Danny threatening Steve... and THE SPOONING LINE. OMG. I know this is Steve/Kono, but you are amazing at making the other characters in your fics memorable, rather than background noise. THIS WAS EXCELLENT, BAMBINO!

(And, as always, your porn is brutally hot.)

I am apparently making it my goal to be the het author of this fandom, and I have no problems with that. :D

I CANNOT RESIST BANTER AND DANNY. If he's in a story and not getting off a few zingers, I just feel wrong inside.

I am glad you liked it! I pretty much write het for you and Cee, at this point. ♥

Terrible yet hot movie where Paul, Jessica Alba, Scott, and Ashley Holt find a sunken treasure and drug dealers. But you're really watching it for the hot people in tight clothing, artistic swimming shots, and Paul and Scott's epic bromance that is pretty much a romance by the end of the movie.

...and the Bahamas, don't forget the Bahamas! :-D (Complete with James Bondian underwater photography, sunken planes, sunken treasure, unscrupulous competitors, etc., etc.)

We (us Bahamian folks, my siblings specifically) were rather pleased that by and large, they found Bahamians to play "local" characters, so people spoke with appropriate accents rather than the abysmal "We're all from Jamaica, Mon. Irie, irie..." you so often get. (Seems peeps in Hollywood believe everyone in the West Indies speaks with a Jamaican accent. Not surprising, I guess -- Big Business assumes everyone in the West Indies speaks Spanish).

Anyway! It was a lot of fun, recognizing filming locations and occasional extras. Scott's character has some less than stellar moments, and there were times I didn't know who I wanted to slap harder, Bryce or Herself the girlfriend, for... eh... unsound decision-making, but all in all, not a bad bromance. :-D

Point of clarification -- "Herself" refers to not!Jessica. :-)
