On TV and elusive pictures

D.Grayman art that I am totally not familiar with at all keeps popping up, and when asked people give me exceedingly aggravating answers like 'oh, it's everywhere' and 'oh, it's really easy to find.' IF I'M ASKING, CLEARLY I HAVEN'T FOUND IT SO. **throttles air**

All I have to say about Bleach is: I am getting SO TIRED OF SHOUNEN BATTLES and also, Orihime was so cute on the cover! And he didn't even draw her breasts that would break her spine!

Also Merlin continues to be awesome. Gwen! Gwen! I love you!

I've come to suspect that there is an inverse relation between writing and special effects. US shows tend to have superior special effects, but irritate me at the very best with stereotypes, tropes, and downright idiocy. BBC shows--and Blood Ties, which is Canadian--have crap special effects, but awesome characters. (Well, Hex's male characters sucked, but what do you do.) And usually pretty entertaining stories.

This is either a distressing trend or simply indicates that I need to watch BBC. And that is actually to my advantage, I think, because in my experience looking for episodes after the iron is hot, US shows seem to get sniffed out and deleted online faster. And I wouldn't have a TV with channels if my life depended on it, yupthnx.

Also, megavideo keeps crapping out right at the end of the episodes, leaving me on tenterhooks trying not to Hulk Out and hurled the laptop through the window. RAGERAGE.

Also: watched Incredible Hulk movie, v.2, last night. Was it just me or was her voice kind of ridiculously breathy throughout the whole thing? I wonder if she was instructed to do that? I don't care I LOVED HER ANYWAY. Break the soldier's nose without breaking stride! VERBAL BEATDOWN. I wish it was Jennifer Connelly, but that is because though I am polyamorous in my adoration for actresses, there are some that stand on pedestals.

I'm going to try and get Mom to go with me to see The Day the Earth Stood Still. It wasn't a fabulous movie--I already watched it online--but I was entertained okay, I want to see JC on the big screen and she likes Keanu Reeves and totally needs to get out of the house.

Leaving for L.A. in two days.

Comments

Are you current with Bleach? Have they gotten back to the town and Tatsuki, or are they still wanking off in Soul Society?
Still, um--does the fake Karakura town count as Soul Society? It's been so long since the explanation I can't remember. Because they're still there, and GOING ON AND ON AND ON.
