YAYZ! 100th post! Anyway, onward hoe!

Angery that Dollhouse was canceled.

In the middle the second season of Supernatual (or as Danielle likes to refer to them as "Cute Boys").

Danielle also found out this week the baby's gender, it's a boy!

Watched the Avatar (not the Last Airbender) trailer monday, watching House, and ... whaoh.

Been enjoying my new job at O'Charley's.

Got Rocky hooked on Balttlestar Galactica, and along with all thing BSG, i rescently read the latest epic fic by lls_mutant Space Between Us, and man was it awesome. Now as much as i enjoyed the canon ending, i still have a few hang ups about it, like many, and this fic was the antidote for it, although the only hang up i had about the fic was that 2 of my favorite characters, Helo and Athena, were killed off, but overall as a whole the fic was awesome.

7. Idea #2: Red Knight. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, meets Battlestar Galactica (the new one) and Code Geass, throw in steampunk. The Game War ended years ago with an uneasy peace treaty between the Card and Chess Kingdoms. This all ends when the Card Kingdom attacks the Chess Kingdom, killing the royals and slowly beginning their rule over the Chess civilians. Focuses on a brigade of Red Pawn soldiers in their quest to over throw the Cards and survive.

Hey, sorry I haven't updated in a bit, life and stuff. Weekend of the 9th, went up to Ashville, NS with my parents to visit my grandmother there. Was able to finish reading Flora's Dare and The Gunslinger. Also while i was in Ashville, i got inspired to create another character for ACC, and also ended up on a Greek mythology kick, and a few days later came up with the idea for a story that is a mix of American Gods and Gods Behaving Badly, which i will write after Novmember. This weekend, Rocky and i went to go see Zombieland. the only way i can sum up the movie is this way: it is the Gurran Lagaan of zombie movies. Anyways, here's some stuff that been floating around the web that has caught my interest:

http://io9.com/5386916/sleek-new-wolfman-trailer-gives-the-fur-boy-some-emo-edge i'm still going to go see this.

Hey, sorry I didn't post last week, my fault. But today, and this week in general, was okay, although today felt very tedious, but anywho let's get on with the post.

Been making my way through Flora's Dare, started reading Thirteen Orphans, and reading the latest collection of Francesca Lia Block's poems.

Time for TV update. Saw the season premire of House, it was kinda sweet and i was surprised that the whole mental asylum angle didn't last the whole season, or even half way through the season. That would have been kinda cool, House is in the asylum, stirring up trouble/trying to get better, and Wilson is feeding him news of all the cases that the Ducklings are solving on their own, and seeing how much they've learned from House. Been watching Fringe, so far been really good, evading shape shifting super soldiers and hunting down mutant babies. And just watched the season primere of Dollhouse. As expected it was awesome. Jamie Bambier as an arms dealer was so lulz worthy and fun. When he slams Echo's head on to the desk, all i could say was: "papadama is going to be so disappointed in you Leemo".

But yeah, that's all i've got to report. Remember, comments are love.

Hey there, sorry about the lateness, i promise i'll post the next entry not so late as this. I've been trying to keep to the schedule i wrote up, but life keeps getting in the way. So, on the post.

I know it was only last week, but it's still a pretty big topic. Sorry i didn't post my reaction sooner but hey. Disney buying Marvel. Well not Marvel Comics, Marvel Entertainment. My first reaction to this news was shock, "i can't believe this is happening". Then anger, "NOOOO! THEY'LL RUIN EVERYTHING!". Then finally acceptance, "you know what, this might not be so bad...as long as they don't cast selina gomez as X-23 or have hannah montanna join the avengers" So far, i've kinda been enjoying it with speculation and the kick ass fan art that's been churnning out, but i think ItsSomeRandomGuy sums it up best http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyYb_r4cZHE&feature=channel_page .

Man, i can't wait till they add a Marvel section to Disney Land. Speaking of which, I went to vist my great grandmother in Orlando for the first leg of Memorial Day Weekend. Yeah, it was a big jump, but my gran lives in Orlando, and sadly my rents and i didn't have a chance to go to Dinsey Land. But the trip was still nice.

Sunday, i went with a neighbor to go see Ponyo. It's silly and obviously aimed more at children, bit a Miyazaki fan could still enjoy it. Hell, i did.

The rest of the week, pretty much been working.

This weekend, going to a job fair and need to get caught up on manga and webcomics i've been reading. But here's some news for some of the sites i freuqent:

http://io9.com/5357474/the-science-fiction-of-your-childhood-gets-the-robot-chicken-treatment/gallery/ Whatever it takes i am so going to watch this.

http://geektyrant.com/2009/09/the-princess-and-the-frog-international-trailer/ I want to see this just for the shear fact that Keith David is singing.

http://geektyrant.com/2009/09/guillermo-del-toro-to-makes-scary-animated-films-with-disney/ I am so there and waiting.

http://geektyrant.com/2009/09/disney-confirms-the-beatles-yellow-submarine-to-be-remade-by-robert-zemeckis-in-3d/ If it's as much as an acid trip that the original was, they can have my saving.

Hi there! The reason for all of the infrueqent posting is because since moving down here to Charleston, I've been just trying to get my life together. I recently decided to make the commitment of posting on a schedule. So before I go into my post, let me just say this: friends, countrymen, people who still remember me, if you find that i have not posted in more than 5 days, yell at me.

So far these past several weeks, i have been:

-Slowly converting my parents by having them watch Justice League: New Frontier, Green Lantern: Flight (which by the way was awesome), and the second season of Torchwood. We was watched the episode Out of the Rain, which reminded me how i've always wanted to write something with a circus or a freak show.

-Working on sketches for the Arcadia City Chronicles. I'll have to post some of them up here.

-Watched the second to last episode of True Blood. As much as last night's episode was awesome, it was freaky deaky, like it was giving me flashbacks of the issue of Sandman, 24 Hours.

And that is all i have to report, for now. Please comment, they are much appreciated.

I've now got the new LiveJournal Messenger. My Windows Live ID is jen176@livejournal.com. Sign up now and we can chat!

10. Blond Roots by Bernardine Evaristo. This was a pretty interesting book about an alternate universe where it's version of Africa was the more developed country and began enslaving the inhabitants of it's version of Europe. The story is told from the point of view from a runaway, Doris. As she tries to make her way to freedom, she fills the readers in on the world she lives in and her life before she became enslaved and her life as a slave. The world is not only just a well idea what this world is, and it's mores and values, right down to the smallest details, but also line with tasteful cultural references which are kinda fun to spot, there's even a reference to Roots in there. The book is not racist, in fact Evaristo is half Nigerian, and just as the blurb says on the back, the book is about how this could happen in any culture and also warning how freedoms can be taken for granted. This book is wonderfully crafted, engaging, and it pulls you right in.



Sorry about not holding up my promise on the last post, decided to save it for NaNoWriMo. Also haven't posted because i've just moved down here to south carolina, trying to get a job, and get my life in order. There is alot of other stuff i could be posting about, such as the protests in Iran, or Michael Jackson's death, but i decided to post my review of this book.

Still trying to wake up this morning. Trying to get through Finals and turn in final assignments. I'm going to start posting a project that I'm just starting, called "On the Corner of Crowley and Damned", expect that in that this week or the following. Also trying to get ready to more down to South Carolina. Watched the season finale of Chuck (which i hope will get a third season, cause it would be a bummer if the series just ended like that, even if it was cool), the season finale of Heroes (which was cool the way they did things, but i really want them to start bringing in stronger female characters besides Claire and whoever Ali Larter is playing this week, and to stop giving everyone powers and neutering their supporting characters), and a new episode of Castle (which i've just gotten into). Currently reading: The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman, Steward of Song by Adam Stemple, and Tiger Moon by Antonia Michaelis.

In the past couple months, read:

6. Singer of Souls by Adam Stemple. It's about an American drug addict named Douglas, who leaves the US for Scottland to make a new life for himself with a clean slate. During the Edinburgh Street Music Festival gains the ability from the Queen of Faeries, Aine, to see the fairies and other creatures. Now, something like would think: "This is AWESOME!", but not Douglas, it completely fraks up his life as he gets pulled into the wars the fairies wage amongst themselves and discovers a power he has that they want. It was an interesting read, but found it took a hard left turn when Douglas starts manipulating the faeries with his power and takes over the Faery Kingdom, but i think that was Stemple natural progression of Douglas's character in that he does have an addictive personality and is now craving control due to the fact that his life is spiraling out of control because of the Faeries involvment and other factors. But I think that's also why Stemple left it off that way to continue it in Steward of Song. Solid A.

7. World War Z by Max Brooks. I just finished reading this yesterday and it's realistic take on what would happen if there was an actual zombie outbreak and how would the world react. It's told in the aftermath of the outbreak and done as oral transcripts from various different members of society and nationalities as well. Lots of kick ass moments, as well as moments of heartbreak, example: i started crying at the interview about the dogs. This movie is also being made into a movie, which J. Michael Strazinsky (i don't know if i spelled that right), the creator of Babylon 5, has the movie rights to it. A+.

Yesterday was kinda okay and not so okay. The night before, saw the latest BSG episode where at the end we find out that Bill and Laura have been sleeping together for sometime. Anywho, yesterday went to the Post Office to get the money order that my dad sent me for my college books, and when i get to the front desk, the teller that i get gives me this BS that the money order can't be verified. So i get a ride from mom and grandma over to the bank and deposit it into my account. Then went over to my grandma's house to do my laundry, b/c K-Mart screwed up our order for a new washing machine, so we've got the TV on and i was channel surfing and found Friday night new episode of the Soup on, so we watch it. It gets to the part where they show the clip from Fox News where they use the word "fisting", and as it cuts back to the studio, where you can hear the crew in the background laughing, my grandma turns to me and asks me what they are laughing about, and then i had to explain to her what "fisting" meant. Also this week finished reading the manga series Victorian Romance Emma.

Got to watch the ABC News coverage of the Presidential Inauguration today, and took a break to go over to the library. I was able to watch Obama's Inaugurational speech and just found it so inspiring.

Let's see:
Wednesday-Got my wallet back
Thursday-Had a really nice Thanksgiving dinner at my aunt's home, and gave my cousin Tristan his first comic
Friday-Did nothing
Saturday-Got together with Cat and some other people and we went play a couple rounds at ShadowLand, and afterwords we migrated over to CiCi's for food
Today-Went to see the movie Australia with my grandma, and we both really enjoyed it.

Also during the break, finished two books for my goal of reading 500 books:
6. Tantalize by Cynthia Leitich Smith

This is a conversation that my best friend and I had a couple seconds ago IMing eachother.

me: check this out, this is so funny
Me: Done by implication in a Justice League comic: Bruce Wayne is meeting with Clark Kent in Japan, and Clark introduces him to a young Japanese woman named Hino Rei. Bruce immediately recognizes "her" as the Martian Manhunter, both because of his body language, and, as he put it, "The name's a dead giveaway". Now think about it for a second, and wonder what Batman watches in his spare time...
Cat: OH DEAR GOD
me: lol
Cat: D:
Cat: FUCK YOU AND YOUR MINDFUCKAGE, JEN! DX

this looks interesting



this looks funny



going to see this



i'm not all that into chick flix but from the way the trailer looks i might go and see this



looks really funny



this looks so cute and it looks funny. i actually saw these tie-in preuqual comics for this movie at beyond comics today sadly i didn't pick it up.



this looks like it could be one of those rare smart scary movies



this looks interesting and it's beginning directed by jada pinkette smith kudos we need more female directors



this looks really cool

Last night was the season premire of Eureka on the Sci-if channel. It was awesome, except that Allison and Nathan are back together and getting remarried. Sorry but i'm holding out for Carter and Allison to get together. They've also got a new character, Eva, who is the Fixer the government has assigned and already she's a bitch, but one of those bitches that you want to see how deep the depths of her bitchiness is. Loved how they treated the drone, Martha, as a teenage girl and the way they rendered her, yes i'm refering to an anotomically incorrect machine in a gender preferance b/c that's what they did and they did an awesome job at it, and she seemed so human. Yeah, i'm looking forward to this season of Eureka.

Was up late last night, b/c that's just me, and was listening to the 2-in-1 Showcase podcast, and they were reviewing the Dark Knight, which i also saw and it was awesome, and they were talking about which villians would be in the next movie, cause come on you know there's going to be a third movie, b/c Chris Nolan has said that for the next movie he's not going to be doing the Penguin or Catwoman b/c that's what everyone is expecting, and being a batshit crazy geeky writer, my brian just started imagining how they would bring in Catwoman. So in the next movie, they just mention her, and in the next movie they introduce her, where Bruce Wayne has been romancing Selina Kyle, or attempting to, and Batman has figured out that she is Catwoman, but he's still trying to confirm it. At the same time, Catwoman steals something for the mafia, and finds out that it's something to do with the Eastside of Gotham, and sets out to stop them, and thus becoming a target. So Batman helps her out and also protecting her, it ends with her and Bruce Wayne, whom she now knows as Batman, shacking up in his penthouse, the next movie would have a subplot of the difference between her and Batman, and the movie after that would show that she crosses lines that Batman wouldn't cross. I don't know, that's just how i would do it.

Also:

This looks awesome.

-The next Marvel event is going to be War of Kings, with Black Bolt vs. Vulcan.
-Neil Gaiman is going to be writing Batman after Grant Morrison.
-Marvel is going to be doing a Cloak and Dagger mini.
-DC is bringing Static Shock into their cannon.
-And...


I can't wait.

Thursday:met up with Cat in the afternoon, and watched the 1960's movie to the live action Batman TV series, which hilarious. Then her dad drove up to Wolftrap where we watch the NSO perform I'm Not the Messiah, a musical adaptation of Monty Python's Life of Brian, and Eric Iddel was there preforming. It was awesome and funny.

Friday: Watched the documentry Dangerous Days, about the making of the movie Blade Runner, was very interesting. Also watched the first half of the season finale of Doctor Who's 4th season, awesome.

I'm so sorry. I am not dead, just been in South Carolina for the past 2 months. Did alot down there, volunteered and got a job, turned 20, which i will fill in all the details in due time.

Pushing Daisies is getting a 2nd season!!!!!!!!! YEAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi there! It's Saturday! I've survived another week! Last night, the premire of season 4 of Doctor Who:

---The episode was made of epic!win.
---The Doctor was kickass as always.
---Kylie was cute and it was so sad when she dead.
---The Hosts, these robots designed to look like angels, are kickass scary.
---"Wow, his teeth really does that..." ROFL.

Also last night was a new episode of BSG:

---It was epicly depressing and awsomely dark, and I loved it.
---Cally is suffering from a combination of post-partum/pill-popping/nervous-breakdown, thinking that Tyrol is having an affair with Tory.
---Cavil and Boomer...EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111111oneoneoeneoneoneeleven
---Adama reading to Rosilin, so adorable. I hope for the fan's sake, as well as mine, that their is scene between the two where they are frakking like horny bunnies, b/c a scene like that is way overdue and it's the last season for crying out loud.
---Zarak, you are a manipulative bastard and love you for it.
---Rosilin verbally bitchslaps Lee in front of the Qurom. But he did make a good point.
---The Cylon Civil War at full-force.
---Aboard the Demterios, everyone is hot/sweaty/going stircrazy, Kara is still losing it and having comfort sex with Anders, and we get some Helo arm-candy. On another note, while we're still on the Demterios (and I'm probably the millionth person to point this and bitch about it) if Helo and Athena are on the Demterios, where is Hera? I hope that in the next episode there is a scene showing that Hera is being looked after, maybe show her being looked after by Dee.
---Nikky Tyrol is just cute as a button.
---Cally finds out that Tyrol is Cylon, beams him over the head, and then prepares to airlock herself and the baby.
---I think I'd going to be one of the few people who going to say I liked Tory and thought she kicked ass. What would be worst for Tyrol? The death of his wife or Cally revealing them to Rosilin which get him, Tigh, Tory, and the baby airlocked. So yeah, if I were in Tory's place, I'd do the some thing.

Saw some really cool trailers for upcoming movies:
---The Fall- it looks epic!awesome and stars Lee Pace.
---Water Lilies-a French movie about high school girl, swimming classes, and a lesbian love story.
---The Strangers-it looks very intelligently frightening.
---Chaos Theory-it looks like an intelligent-made dramedy and it looks as though Ryan Reynolds is now on my list of actors I'll go see their movies just to see them in them[their movies].

Hey there! Lots has happened in the past couple of weeks:

-Went to my dad and his girlfriend's (now his wife) wedding. I was very sweet and beautiful, dispite the horrible weather.
-Finished reading Beastly by Alex Flinn.
-Finished reading Howl's Moving Castle by Diane Wynne-Jones.
-Almost done with Queen of Babble in the Big City by Meg Cabot.
-Also reading the Color Purple by Alice Walker, for my Women in Literature class.
-Getting further in the Bleach episodes. Watched the first Ichigo-vs.-Grimmjaw fight last night.
-Got the fist disc of Batman: tAS from Netflix.
-Just saw The Rocky Horror Picture Show for the fist time this morning.
-On Thursday, I passed the Bandage Test.
-Last night saw the premire of The Sarah-Jane Adventures on the Sci-Fi Channel. It was really cute, I think stick around for it.
-The fourth and final(although I've heard rumors that there is going to a ten episode season 5) of Battlestar Galactica aired last week. The first two episode so far have been KICK-ASS. Last night's episode, "Six of One":
-Nice New Cylons Support Group meeting.
-Crazy!DavidKuresh!Baltar seeing Head!Baltar.
-Lee is still hot, still Kara's boytoy, and still useless.
-Cool going-away party in the officer's lounge.
-Rosilin attempting to shoot Kara at point-blank range, only to shoot a picture of her and Adama *foreshadow*.
-We get a verbal comfirmation that Adama and Rosilin are knocking boots.
-Adama and Kara's overall relationship in the episode and just their interaction for the win!
-Adama and Rosilin are pretty much defacto-husband-and-wife. In the words of sarmoti on this episode: "Daddy got drunk and he and Mommy fought and then Mommy's hair started falling out and she cried". If Mary McDonell and Edward James Olmos don't get nominated for something when Emmys' roll around, there will be bodies in the street.
-Baltar did Tory.
-Cylon Civil War!
-I want a friend like Helo. Maybe a friend-with-benefits if he looks like Tamoh Penikett.
-We got more Helo scenes. I don't think he's going off with Kara to Earth, b/c that would be OOC of him to up and abandon his family like that even it's for a good cause. It was just mentioned that Helo hand-picked a crew to accompany Kara.
-Alright, here are some theories, predictions, and what I hope/want to happen in this season:
-Baltar is the dying leader.
-I think that Adama and Rosilin are not going to be alive to make it to Earth, only get a view of it.
-I'm hoping there is going to be an Adama/Rosilin sex-scene.
-Sharon shows signs of a second pregnancy.
-The reason why Helo is getting so much screen-time is b/c he's is being set-up to take Adama's place as the "father" of the crew.
-The Final Cylon is maybe Dee, or as alot of people are throwing out that the Final Cylon could be Adama. I don't know, maybe it's b/c that would be a cool twist or maybe it's b/c I read that Adama/Rosilin smutfic on Survival Instinct, where the author writes that he is the Final Cylon.
-I think the destruction of the Cylons will involve the destruction of the Galactica. If this does happen and Adama and Rosilin are going to die, their do an "old-school-Hollywood"-kiss just as they are engulfed in flames. Yeah, I'm morbid like that.
-Kara is sending Helo the coordinates to get to Earth.
-Good!Six, that is being held in Galactica's cell-block, becomes pregnant with Baltar's child.
-All of the Cylons will be killed off except for 1%, which includes: Good!Six, a Leoban, Anders, and Tory, who make it to Earth with the human survivors.

Sorry that this post is so long, just wanted to make up for lost time.

Hey! Spring Break is over, nothing real exciting happened.

1. At the end of my Spring Break, my dad and his girlfriend get legally married.
2. Read Invinceble.
3. Now reading Un-lun-dun.
4. Got a mess of stuff due for my classes before I leave.

Yeah, nothing been happening much lately.

Right now, I'm on my Spring Break (it's now Day 3) and lots of stuff has happened:

-3 weeks ago watched Disney's Pocahantas for the first time in like forever, and after watching it, it's bad in so many ways it's not even funny. It's historically inaccurate and most if not all of the characters are two-dimentional.
Once I take the Intro to Drawling class, I want to write a graphic novel that is about my interpretation of how the story went down.
-Also 3 weeks ago, found out that my Women in Literature professor is also is in the same yoga class as I am. I guess there is a first for everything, including seeing one of your professor's topless.
-Books I've finished reading: Queen of Babble by Meg Cabot, Hero by Perry Moore, and Pay the Piper by Jane Yolen.
-Read Top 10 volume 2.
-Been reading the Invincible series.
-Been reading (or listening to, since I downloaded the entire book of LibreVox) Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte.
-Wrote a short story for my Women in Literature class. Got it back on Friday, it got rave reviews from my professor.
-Saw the first episode of New Amsterdam last week, it was really cool, liked to see where it's going to go.
-My mom and I went to see 10,000 B.C.. Yeah, it's pretty much a B-movie with top-notch special effects, but mom and I enjoyed it.
-Saw Ben10 vs. Negative10 last night, now I'm hyped up about Ben10: AlienForce.
-Making my way through Horns and Winkles by Joseph Helgerson and Sandman IV: Season of the Mists.
-Listened to the latest round of Pendent Audio Productions today.
-Watching Red Garden right now.

Fanfic Plotbunny:
Combining my love of NPR's Wait! Wait! Don't Tell Me! and the Batman fandom. Bruce Wayne is the guest on W!W!DTM!'s That's Not My Job segment of the show.

Okay, the best I can say is that I caught a bout of the lazy. In the past month:

-Read and finished Flora Segunda
-Discussed alot of authors in Women in Literature.
-Got the first issue the Bendis/Hitch run of Fantastic Four.
-Got the fist issue in my subscription to Mentalfloss magazine.
-Been watching episode of Bleach and have started watching Gurren Lagann and Hitman Reborn!
-Finished reading The Game by Diana Wynne Jones and Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer.
-Went to this year's Katsucon. Not the best con' experence, but still was fun. I even got a wooden sword.
-Need to get back to writing ToC.
-Trying to get through The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory.
-Watched the Oscars last night.

YAY! I have gotten through the first week of spring semester!

1. Been slowly getting the books I need for my classes through mail.
2. 34 pages to go till I'm done reading The Subtle Knife, which I will review on here when I do finish it.
3. My sister's boyfriend, Shane, has recsently moved in with us. Another reason why I'm looking forward to moving down to South Carolina.
4. Saw Atonement on Sunday with my grandma and my aunt. I enjoyed it, my aunt hated it, and my grandma was entertained by it but afterwords kept going on about how flat-chested Keria Knightly was.
5. My Women in Literature class rocks. On Friday, we got a point where we talked about the book The Giving Tree, and that lead to an interesting conversation about it, and because in the story the characters are presented as a mother(the Tree)-son(the Little Boy), and we mused about how what if the genders were switched and it was a father-daughter story.
6. Have been listening to Playing For Keeps by the MotherGoddess of the Podiosphere Mur Lafferdy and can't wait for the next episode.
7. Been working ToC.
8. Friday at Anime Club, we watched anime as usual: Glass Fleet, Karas, Spice and Wolf, and Demmo Coil. Glass Fleet just wasn't that good and blantly yoai, which for everyone's info I have nothing against slash/yoai/shonen-ai but only when it's not done well. Karas was just awesome, what it is set up in the series is that every city have yokai living it and keep it alive, and every city has a Yurine, the spirit of the city, and every Yurine has a Karas, a warrior/gaurdian for the city; one of the Karas goes crazy and kills his Yurine and plans to rid the city of humans; it was just awesome. Spice and Wolf was really funny and cute, it about a wolf-god of a village finds that her worshipers have converted to the religion of one god and hitches a ride with a merchant to go see the world. Demmo Coil is this really cute anime about these kids, and it set in a future where they own pets made from digital info, and they go sloving mysteries, but it's not like Digimon, infact it's better than Digimon.
9. Been reading Kingdom Hearts III: Trials of the Keyblade, which is awesome.

REC of the Day: webcomic
Brathalla-I love these kinds of things, where someone takes set canon of any kind and plays with it, Brathalla is one of them. It's just awesome. Can be found here: http://www.graphicsmash.com/comics/brathalla.php

1. Just as the subject says, the power went out around 11:00 this morning and did not come back on til around 4:00 this afternoon.
2. Got in a other chapter of the Subtle Knife.
3. Finally read another chapter of Water For the Elephants.
4. Read the graphic novel the Professor's Daughter. I loved it. Set in Victorian London, the story is about the mummy of Immotep IV, who is undead (but not zombie undead, he can converse, walk correctly, and eat non-human subtances), who falls in love with Isabelle, the daughter of the Professor who has come into the possection of Immotep. It is beautifully drawn and whimsically told.

Rec of the Day: Dragon Ball Z
War of Worlds by b-chan. If you are looking for a DBZ fic that has great flow/characterzation/narration and an actual plot look to fanfiction author b-chan. This fic takes place years after DBGT(may it burn in HELL), one may need to read Chrono and Sayian Women, which set up continuity in WoW (Chrono frames and sets up the plot of WoW), and this alien warlord named Lucsifer has set his sights on Earth, but because Goku is gone, role to save the Earth falls to Vegeta. The fic isn't Vegeta defeats Lucsifer in 10 chapters or less, b-chan builds up everything that she wants to have meaning and effect too where as a reader you don't lose interest and your hooked. b-chan also writes the characters so beautifully, and gives every character screen time and fleshes them out as almost real people, as well as the unused potental of the characters from GT; the bast example I give is Bra, whom in GT was Bulma and Vegeta's shankly-dressed daughter who is just there, in b-chan's fic she molds Bra into this amazing character who at times is wacky and aloof for no reason, but if you read Chrono, you understand why she is like that. But what I also love is that b-chan has a plan for this story, that she knows where this story is suppost to go, because it is trying to answer the question that you ask when the future-kids are telling their grandparents in Chrono about their future "how did that happen". Unfortunatly, after chapter 19, the fic stops and this is my lifetime wish: for b-chan to come back to life and finish War of the Worlds. So please, whoever is reading rec and decide to read War of Worlds, we have to do what ever we can to contact b-chan and convince her to finish her magum opus. Can be found at http://bchan.onnacafe.com/.

Sorry if I ranted.

Lots of movie related stuff on this post.

1. A few nights ago, I down loaded Rifftrax commentary of Harry Potter and the SS(Sorcerer's Stone, for all the idiots out there) and watched the movie to it. So goddamn fucking funny.
2. Yesterday, went to see Sweeny Todd. Awesome movie.
3. Today, went to see Cloverfield with my mom today. I thought it was great; my mom, she didn't like the ending.

Rec of the Day (it's something new I'm trying): Today it's a Transformers fic:

New Beginnings by plenoptic. This is an Optimus/Elita pairing fic, telling about how they met/felling love/and how it fits into the war against the Decepticons. plenoptic just does a wonderful job at describing everything that she writes in this fic and is able to wave everything that people loved about the cartoons and the movie. Can be found at: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3831505/1/New_Beginnings.

Tonight, I just got 2 really good ideas for comics:

1. Urchins-Think DMZ meets Devil's Backbone meets Pan's Labyrinth meets Lost (only with out the Island). Set in the backdrop of a distant future where the US is a civil war and has divided a city. The series would focus on a group of children, who have been left orphaned and homeless by the war, just trying to survive and come to grips with their lost and fractured childhood.

2. Hero High-Inspired by Fast Times at Hero High, the series would be all about characters who are parodies of archetypal superheroes and villians, who are teenagers in highschool. Will need to watch Fast Times at Ridgemont High if I want to go anywhere with this one.

This is so fucking awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fast Times at Hero High

Posted Dec 24, 2003

Superheroes weren't always super. See what they were like in high school!

Sorry I didn't post last month, it was a combination of shit-happens and laziness that struck me. Here's what's up:
1. This year's Christmas Eve was that last one that my family and I are going to have at the China Room, the one that we've been going to for years on end now.
2. Currently reading the Subtle Knife.
3. Spent New Year's and a good two weeks with Dad and Danielle.
4. While I was in Charleston, I saw Enchanted. My dad, Danielle, and I all enjoyed it, but I think that Patrick Dempsey is the poor-man's Hugh Jackman.
5. Saw Juno. Awesome.
6. Classes start next week.
7. In the middle of writing the second interlude of ToC.
8. Saw the Sarah Connor Chronicles, throughly enjoyed it.
9. I've come to the conclusion that in the next year and a half, I'll be moving down to South Carolina.

Yeah! The beginning of Winter Break! End of the Fall Semester! Well, that was yesterday. Anywho, lots happened:

1. Going to South Carolina this Thursday.
2. Retitled Grimm Enchantments to A Grimm World.
3. Almost done with Phantom.
4. There's been more cast news on the upcoming Dragon Ball live-action movie. Yes, they're adapting it in to a live action movie. Now don't start screaming or bitching, because, and let me just say this: if it is a bomb, at least it'll be better than the Chinese live-action adaptation, which fucking sucked, and I know this from people that the only way one can watch that movie, one must be drunk. Anyway, Emmy Rossum is going to be playing Bulma, and Chow Yun Fat is going to be playing Master Roshi.
5. Watched the season finale of HEROES. Great, not what I was exspecting, but because of the Writers' Strike, it just seemed rushed.
6. A few minutes ago, I read this article about how there's going to be a BBC miniseries focused on Faigan from Oliver Twist, and tell his origin story. There are alot of characters that are getting the Phantom/Wicked treatment, where the writer takes a major character from established literature, that really there is not much known about them, here is a list of this kind of treatment I want for certain characters (and this does not stop at characters in literature):
-Captain Nemo from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.
-Ginny Weasley from Harry Potter.
-Mrs. Colter from His Dark Materials.
-Captain Hook of Peter Pan. Yes, I know there is a book that explains his childhood, but it's geared at kids.
-Professor Bear from Little Women.
-Hohenheim and Dante from FMA. Explore who they were before they became immortal, the first steps they took to become immortal, who were the previous Homunculi, and the parting of the ways.
-The Three Lights from Sailor Moon.
-Anthy Himemiya from Revolutionary Girl Utena.
-Clow Reed from CLAMP.
-Vegeta from DBZ. I'm not talking about the whole series from his POV, but from his childhood on Planet Vegeta to when he and Nappa head from Earth to get the Dragon Balls.
-Atticus Finch from To Kill a Mockingbird. I would so by that book.
-Mildred from Of Human Bondage.
-Hercule Poirot of Agatha Christie's writings.
-The Commander aka Fred from The Handmaid's Tale.
-Orsino of Shakespeare's The Twelfth Night.
-Prospero of The Tempest.
Okay, I'm just going to stop because this could go on forever.
7. Also watched the last A:tLA episode of the season, the Western Air Temple. Great way to wrap up the season: upbeat after Day of Black Sun, new members join the gAang, Zuko acting like a complete dork, but still joins the gAang (total squee moments), and ending the Combustion Man part of the story.
8. Been watching some episode of Jim Henson's the Storyteller. Good it is so awesome, I hate myself for not being born when it was on. This is a show that really needs to come back.

Gerard Butler as Sabertooth!

*Sigh* Okay, lately I've been on a Power Rangers binge, unfortunaltely as much as I would love to turn my TV and just watch an episode that just happens to on, I am anal and I want to know everything before just jumping in. So, I binged on the fanfics, and I got this cool idea... Power Rangers meets Exiles.

Premise: Five Rangers, each of them from worlds different then their own, fall through the cracks of reality and are charged with the task of going to different worlds and fixing what's wrong with them.

World Idea: The Traveling Rangers land in a world where the original Rangers were unable to save Tommy from Rita's influence, infact Tommy killed all of the Rangers, except for Kimberly, whom he captured and put her under the spell, making her evil as well. Eventully, both of them became so powerful they killed Rita and her cohorts, as well of Lord Zedd. The world that the Traveling Rangers arrive in is one that would remind readers of Marai Trunks timeline in DBZ, in that the Green and Pink Rangers are just killing people. The Traveling Rangers are then informed that their task is to destroy the evil Rangers, and find and tap new Rangers before the Evil Machine Empire arrives at Earth.
