Musings on Glee
Just finished watching the season premiere and re-watching Rachel's "On My Own" from the Pilot.
Sunshine opens her eyes when she sings! Rachel still does NOT. "On My Own" wasn't pitch-corrected or auto-tuned. It sounds SO MUCH BETTER than the way they did the music all last season, and Rachel actually had her eyes open in "On My Own"! What happened ( Read more... ) -
Toy Story 3: Best Action Movie of the Year
Toy Story had a budget of $30 million, Toy Story 2 had a budget of $90 and Toy Story 3 had a budget of $190 million. Lee Unkrich and the crew of TS3 made very sure every audience member knew the differences in budget. TS3 was the most action-packed animated movie I've ever seen. Every time someone could have an escape, chase, or fight, they had it ( Read more... ) -
It's not very often I find good JouMai fanfiction
Really, it's mostly just Mai. But it's the first fic I've ever seen where Mai has an age difference and it actually makes sense and not just the author being squicky about her being so much older than Jou.
Scribbler's "A Song I Think I Heard Before"
The many faces of Mai. Her story, pre-canon to post-canon, plus the bits canon itself didn't let ( Read more... ) -

I have no angry or exasperated icons. Sad-zaku will have to do. I was pleasantly surprised to find Yu-Gi-Oh! R at the library tonight, so I grabbed all they had, volumes 1-3. They translated Pegasus's name as Maximillion J. Pegasus, which weird because all the rest of the manga sticks with Crawford, and R uses everyone else's original names. Also ( Read more... ) -
Oh, Alan Menken!
No Disney icon. Wicked will have to do. ^^;
Fun day of watching Disney movies on youtube. Still not ready to try more 5Ds because of last night. Bought a book about animated features yesterday, and was reading it. Then I saw LK's new video, "Out There". All together, it made me want to watch The Hunchback of Notre Dame, which I'd only seen once ( Read more... ) -
Wow, writing staff, you killed 90+ episodes with Crow's awful 3.
I'm loading the Jack/Carly Dark Signer duel right now (points to icon, finally found some good Jack/Carly icons!) because I really hate Crow now, and that is making me regret spending so much time watching this series.
( SUDDEN HATE FOR 5DS RANT ) -
I would stop watching 5Ds, only it's so funny! XD
While I wait for the last part of this episode to load Meant to type this yesterday, but decided to look for 5ds icons instead. ^^;; Anyway, random facts about 5Ds that non-5Ds fans will find amusing: Most of which will be related to Crash Town, the boring ridiculous filler arc between the not-as-boring-only-one-episode-long-filler and the plot.
( Spoilers. Most of them involving guns and card games. ) -
I'm going to write about an that's not 5Ds someday. Really.
But for now, going to keep watching 5Ds instead of doing my FMA/Descartes paper. Holy Faithshipping, Batman! Episode 75!
Even Lua said Yusei and Aki were on a date. Lua. Who is one of two 5Ds!Jous. The other of course being Crow, who in the same episode, wolf-whistled at Aki in her riding outfit. WTF show, YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE ROMANCE. And ( Read more... ) -
Tekko Aftermath
Three days after the end of Tekko. I was a wreck Sunday night from lack of sleep. ^^;; Not doing that again. Con report will come soon, but here's the short version ( Read more... ) -
Alchemy, Peru, and Genetics; or, what kind of spinoff is this?!
I think I spent around an hour and a half reading these. And I know none of the people who normally read my journal watch 5Ds or has any intentions of watching 5Ds anytime soon ever, but the EFFORT the writers put into researching all of this stuff... if they spent half that much effort or money animating in the original series. Syntheticpoetic, ( Read more... )
