dragons and movies
Jun. 7th, 2014 11:00 pm1a. I have been pretty much obsessively playing Flight Rising this week. Ok, mostly playing the fairground games and stalking the Water forum for giveaways. I don't know about all the clans, but the water people were REALLY generous at this, and many of my FR friends have also been "Let me give you things!" I will likely spam with all my dragons soon. Like, once I've named more of them. (That, and I'll be getting at least 2 more in the next few days.) But for now, here's my custom dragon, Levy (named for the Fairy Tail character):
1b. The other day, I jokingly asked on twitter how wanky it would be, on a scale of 1-50, to try to acquire a white dragon of one of the European-based breeds and name it "Solidarity." Except I apparently got attached to the idea, which may not be a good thing. Or maybe it is?
1c. I like how figuratively exclaiming "They will make beautiful babies!" appears to be an important part of the lifeblood of FR, from what I've seen.
2a. I've been carrying free Redbox credits around for weeks now, because they were only good for the local Albertsons, and their Redbox tends to not have the best selection, but they expire next week and so I made myself use my last 2 (technically 3, but I gave one to someone else) this week. Vampire Academy was terrible and I loved it. The "no gay, this is just about the epic and eternal andtotallyplatonicnorealthisfeedinghasnosexualundertonesatallnosirree love between the vampire princess and her female bodyguard WHO IS TOTALLY NOT HER GIRLFRIEND< OK" was kinda annoying, but it really was all about Rose and Lyssa's eternal love, and sometimes they gazed at the guys they wanted to make out with to remind us that they're straight. Pompeii was...also not good, but not the worst way to spend two hours, even if everyone was terribly miscast, aside from some of the gladiators who weren't the main character. Speaking of which, Kit Harrington's abs were rather traumatic, looking both terribly unhealthy and very CGI. I was very relieved when he started covering his chest. Also, the epic love story was based on one conversation and the fact that they both liked horses. I kids you not.
2b. For much better abs, have the trailer for the upcoming Hercules movie with Dwayne Johnson, which I will 100% be watching for the plot:
2c. Both Belle and Maleficent are out, but it looks like I won't get to see them in theaters. Woes.
