Fridays seem very, very dead online lately...
As a result, I seem to be too bored even too read. Also, the boys watched
The Goonies AGAIN. Now, the first time, I enjoyed it. It was entertaining enough the next few times, but EVERY OTHER WEEK? It's about killing me.
Anyway, I have been too bored to even read(so you know it's bad...) and have been poking about looking at wuxia things. I am not allowed to buy new shinies for a while thanks to photoshop elements, so no danger of buying things, but...
1. Has anyone seen
The Legend of Hero with Ady An and Peter Ho? I need to see an Ady An series where:
A) She lives
B) She gets the Guy
C) He lives
D) It doesn't suck
There's
Flying Fox of Snowy Mountain, but by all accounts, it doesn't meet the last requirement.
Just need to find someonewho's seen the Peter Ho one...
2. Apparently, Jin Yong wasn't quite as mean to Ah Jie as I thought.
3. I've started posting at the SPC boards, and for some reason, it seems to be assumed that because I like Chengzhi/Qing Qing I automatically have to dislike his relationship with Ah Jie. And...why? Caring and love are not synonymous, and loving one person doesn't mean your hormones shivel up and die and you never notice another attractive person again. It's clear who he loves throughout and he doesn't cheat, and he never acts as more than Ah Jie's friend, so why should it bother me? (Should point out that the person wasn't rude-far from it-just seemed to assume that that was how I'd feel. Though, considering some of what I've read in the thread, I guess it was a safe assumption...most fans seem to like one girl and hate the other, while I like both.)
4. I've been told that since I liked SSWRB, I should like
Xiao Ao Jiang Hu/Laughing in the Wind. As
calixatells me this is her favorite Jin Yong, I may watch the 10 episodes of it that I have soon.
5.
dangermousie I've been poking around looking for feedback on the
Bichunmoo series...found a few good looking pics and a nice MV, but most responses seem lukewarm.
6. Not wuxia, but
magicnoiremay have sold me on the
Princess Tutu anime...not sure yet...
7.
Goonies is over and now it's
Butterfly Effect...goodness...I'm not sure this is a movie I could watch, based on the short bit I just saw...
