This show is so funny. XD

Korra's on a break next Saturday! ;_; Anyhoo, ramblings on this week's episode.

( Spoilers and 2 gifs! )

Young Justice! Which hopefully, is not on a break next week cos I need my cartoons!

( Spoilers and reaction gifs. Cos this episode had too many WHAT moments. )

I'm watching a new anime (yay, finally) called Nichijou. It's like Lucky Star and Azumanga Daioh on crack. An example here from ep 7 (don't worry, he's not a main character). My exact reaction was this



I'm on ep 10 at the moment, it's so funny! XD

After a lengthy discussion/debate with a friend of mine about all the US live action anime adaptations coming up, I was thinking of making a post about which animes I think would make a good transition (if done well). Not that they should ever be made, but on paper they'd be okay....

And the latest spoilers from IPKKND have me all excited. Not because of what is gonna be said, but the meaning behind saying it. You're a buttmunch ASR, but you know your contract wifey!

Okay, I think I've calmed down enough now to make a coherent(ish) post about this wonderful ball of amazingness. XD Although I've got to get a few things off my chest first.

1) Everyone and their dog/cat is going on about how amazeballs this film is. And it is. But, with certain pre-conditions. If you don't enjoy the superhero genre or are expecting a LOTR style epic masterpiece thingy then you'll be disappointed. It's a great superhero film, really enjoyable, got a lot of heart but don't expect something Oscar worthy. ^_^

2) While you can enjoy this film without having seen the Marvel films before it, I wouldn't recommend it. A big part of the appeal of this film was the character interaction/development and Joss did great work building on top of what had come before instead of just starting from scratch. There were moments in the film for Cap, Thor and Iron Man that hold more meaning if you've seen the other films. Out of all of them, I'd say Thor and Cap's films are the most important to see before going, but Iron Man's films are great too.

3) The Avengers is not Batman. XD A lot of people have been comparing the two lately, but to be honest, the only thing they have in common is that they're both based on comic books. Avengers is a straight up comic book film, and I love the Nolan Batman films but I'd be hard pressed to call them superhero films. It's more like, if Batman existed in real life, this is how he'd be.

Now, with that out of the way, review time! I loved, loved, loved this film. I could seriously watch this every week until it left the cinema, but then I'd be broke and this film already has enough money. I feel like it was completely enjoying being a superhero film, not worrying about whether non-comic book fans would find certain things weird or silly, and it just went and had fun. A big part of this is because Joss is a fan and knows the genre so well and he just brought it on this. If he doesn't do Avengers 2, I will be so damn upset.

( Spoilers with gifs! )

One of the great things about this film is the hilarious/cute fanart that has come out of it.

( Spoilers!! )

Please take note Hollywood. Things don't have to be doom and gloom in order to make bank.

I'm probably late on the uptake, but I came across all these click and drag game things on tumblr. You click and drag the image and it picks a character for each category. This seems like something I would've got so addicted to back when I was in school. Any excuse not to do homework. XD

Anyhoo, there's an Avatar one here, also including characters from Korra! Have a go! I got...

Your Best Friend: Sokka
Your Enemy: Toph (Awwww!)
Has a Crush On You: Ozai
Your First Kiss: Bolin
Your True Love: Ozai (Oh dear)
Your Bending: Water


Yes. I'm aware I'm too old for this sort of thing. But it's 1am and I can't fall asleep! XD (And I just found one for Hey Arnold, oh dear)

This episode can pretty much be summed up in one gif.



But I have more, as usual. XD

( Spoilers, spoilers, spoilers! )

I've watched a ton of films but keep forgetting to post about them. XD This is the most recent one I watched (at home). I've been in the mood for a Bollywood film for ages now, and spunspider recommended Jab We Met.

It was a really good film! :D It's a rom-com, so don't expect any grand twists or anything, but it's a really nice character piece. The story didn't drag for me at any time, the characters were all wonderful, the chemistry between the two leads was fantastic and there were a lot of genuine LOL moments. I'm not really into rom-coms these days, most of the time because I leave the film thinking "what did they see in each other?" If I'm not rooting for the characters individually as well as together, then I've got no interest, no matter what the story is like. Luckily, these two were adorable! I might buy this one, it's definitely one I could watch again.

I haven't watched YJ yet, so Korra gets a seperate post! Sorry, it's still pretty early here for a Sunday so the screenshots are just normal.

( Spoilers! )

Haha, I couldn't resist! A few gifs from the most recent episode.

It's late! XD

First, Korra.

And YJ, which was less squee worthy this week.
