"Comment To Be Added":
This does not mean for you to ...
... tell me to join one of your communities. Yes, I run a few communities. If I want to join one, I'll search it out. Don't pimp in my post.
... ask me questions about anything which isn't to do with Friending. I have an email visible in my Bio. Please, use it!
... ask for any layout graphics or help. I'm lucky I manage what I do. 99% of the time, my graphics are gifts from more skilled friends of mine.
... generally act like an idiot and/or goober.
I don't want to scare off anyone. Honestly, I'm a very nice person, and I love making new Friends! I'm just tired of my "comment to be added" post being used as a bitch and moan section or a community pimping site.
Thank you, and I hope you'll choose to add me if I sound interesting!
A Mini-Guide to Me:
Most Active Fandoms (read as: Post about the most):
Doctor Who (new, classic & the audio plays*!), The Walking Dead TV series & comics, Counting Cars, Almost Human, Enlisted, Pitbulls & Parolees, Tabatha Takes Over, Monster High/Ever After High (mostly doll collecting), The Haunting Of ..., Shake It Up!, Game of Thrones, A Song of Ice and Fire, The Big Bang Theory, X-Men films and comics, Sherlock Holmes (lit/film/BBC series)**, and other tv. Also, various video games, manga, anime, music, movies, unmentioned tv shows and real life.
Current video game of choice: Taking a break from gaming until the hi def version of Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2 is released for PS3. The bastards pushed back the damn release date from December 31st to fucking MARCH 2014. What shit. I was so excited I was gonna be off that week so I could play. Now it's not happening. Bitches.
* I seriously love me some motherfuckin' Doctor Who!! So expect posts about not only the new series but the classic show and the Big Finish audio plays. BF made the Eighth Doctor and I consider every damn thing they've done as series canon. AND MOFFAT CONFIRMED IT WITH "THE NIGHT OF THE DOCTOR" MINI-SODE!!! SUCK IT, YOU EIGHT HATERS!
* I love The Walking Dead comic and the TV show. I will discuss both with equal enthusiasm and verve! The show does great things, the book does great things. IT'S JUST GREAT, OKAY?
** I made my way through the complete works of ACD because of the Guy Ritchie movie. I am highly fannish for both mediums, and I do not abide trashing of either in my Journal space, dammit. If you can't respect the Awesome (fuck yeah, capital "A"), no matter what the century it was created, go away. And don't come back. EVER.
** I've been a comics fan for years. So be prepared for me to talk about my problems with comics vs. film differences in just about any comic book movie ever made. Except for, like, DC-verse because I couldn't give two shits about DC outside of Wonder Woman. I do appreciate good, well-made and thought out comic book movies, however, like X-Men: First Class and the films related to and title The Avengers.
If you tend to post about a fandom I've listed in my interests but not one I'm currently active in, don't hesitate to add me. You may revive my interest in whatever fandom you currently obsess over.

(ETA: I'm going to leave this post unLocked for a while. At least until the end of the current series.)
Okay, I finished rewatching (and taking two pages worth of notes on) the last episode of Doctor Who. Yes, I took notes on a television show. It's not as though it's new territory to me, since I would take notes on entertainment often in my high school English and History courses. Then again, I was getting graded and I'm not now ...
I read through most of the reviews on my FL and who_daily and I was really surprised at how DIFFERENTLY I interpreted this episode compared to, well, EVERYONE ELSE. When I reviewed the episode tonight, I kept in mind the comments I'd read and shook my head, wondering, "I just don't understand how they see it that way." So that's why I took notes, jotting down reasons and "evidence" for why I interpreted it how I did.
( SPOILERS. AND EMOTIONAL NUDITY.Collapse )
Wow. That was a lotta thinky thoughts and I'm sure 90% of it makes NO FUCKING SENSE at all, but there. I had to write it all out more detailed than I'm used to because, like I said, I saw this episode in a completely different way than the rest of fandom.
I'm feeling: contemplative
I'm enjoying: "Rock Around The Clock (Swing Cats Mix)" - Bill Haley
I had no idea this flick was by Stephen Sommers, who gave us stuff like The Mummy, because now I completely understand why it was so funny. However, unlike The Mummy, where the intended humor worked for the movie, it worked against it here. Plot? What plot? If Dracula's "Master Plan" was supposed to be a plot, then I have the wrong definition of the word. It was as though Sommers read/saw League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and went, "Hmmph! I could do that and make it funny, too!"
( A few spoilers about the flick. Some deep introspection on the title character.Collapse )
You're probably wondering if I'm rec'ing the movie or railing it. It's a bit of both, really. If you're into bad movies, like I am, I highly recommend it. If you want to see Richard Roxburgh take on Gary Oldman's record for scenery chewing as Dracula, I highly recommend it. If you want to see Hugh Jackman with a look on his face of "I went from X-Men 2 to THIS?", I highly recommend it. If you're into cheesy endings, I highly recommend it. If you want to see Kate Beckinsale in a corset that makes her waist look like Barbie's (so skinny that it's unreal), I definitely recommend it.
I'm feeling: weird
