i'm so dumb

croik: (SHHHHH)
So over the weekend TK and I watched The Take (pattern continuing), a British drama starring Tom Hardy. It was dark and pretty good, if not a bit predictable. But I think Hardy might have been miscast, because he was amazing and his performance made Freddy easily the most interesting character in the show. Which wouldn't be bad except that Freddy is a despicable human being, and it's kind of awkward rooting for him, especially after...yeah. Eurggghhhhhh. After he made his exit I almost wanted to just shut it off 'cause I didn't really care what happened to anyone else. And how horrible is THAT??

"So damn interesting that you forget he's Not A Good Guy" seems to be a theme for all the Tom Hardy things I've seen so far :B Doubt that'll hold up by the time I get to Flood, hah.

In any case, I yoinked some caps and did something dumb of the Eames/Robert variety.

If you've seen The Take this might skeev you right out, but otherwise, it's just silly )

Fuck. Saw the new GK2 updates and all I can say is fuck, I'm so....ugh. I can't stand it. Do Not Want, in caps. I'm sure everyone's excited but I can't even look, because it's just such a bad sign for the franchise, I mean seriously. If I talk to anyone who's excited about it now I'm gonna lose my nachos. I'm just so irritated I'm mostly incoherent right now, I went to bed mad at the entirety of the internet. Which is so stupid, I know, how can something so dumb make you so grumbly.

And that's it: I'm not pissed, really, I'm just a horrible grump of a grinch. Capcom...I am disappoint.

Gonna go update now. Pfft.

WARNING: This chapter has an extra trigger warning for a brief torture scene. I don't think it's any worse than the violence already in the fic, but I know some people are freaked by this specifically, so if you want to know exactly what it is ahead of time let me know.

To Chapter 12
croik: (Arthur's tripping)
Over the weekend TK and I went on a movie binge, and watched Red Eye, Perrier's Bounty, RockNRolla, and Bronson. Some of you may notice a pattern in our selections. At the end of it we declared Bronson the undisputed champion of the event, for pulverizing the competition in both the literal and metaphorical sense, being hilarious and demented and for Tom Hardy's crazy-awesome performance. But the single best moment was, perhaps, a little gem of a segment tucked in Bronson's special features. In fact I suspect you haven't even read the above because you've already been hypnotized by its infinite-looping splendor.

To Chapter 11
croik: (Prinny)
I just finished Vanquish. Like, just now--the credits are still running. It was a Christmas gift and it was probably the most boring action game I've ever played. How can you yawn your way through a sequence where you have to powerslide across a suspended highway that's falling apart beneath you? I dunno, but I did. Yawn yawn yawn. Oh, and thanks Platinum, for the desperate attempt at relevancy with your "economic stimulus package" BS. That really brightened up the non-existant plot and puddle deep characters, thanks.

It's at this point where I stop to think about what a disappointment Platinum games has turned out to be. Bayonetta was a servicable action game but it felt so pointless, muddled, and desperate for attention. Madworld was great fun but repetative, eye-raping, and short. Vanquish is death-inducingly dull. Dunno about their other game but I'm not interested. I expected a lot more from them.

At this point I stop to wonder why I expected a lot more from them. Okami was fantastic, that much I could never question. But I wasn't a big fan of Viewtiful Joe (the little that I played) and I sold God Hand back right after I beat it. The only reason I was sad about Clover going under was, ultimately, that it meant Okami would never get a sequel (and...now it has one, though I'm sure it's nothing compared to the original). And knowing that Platinum couldn't make an Okami sequel, what was I really expecting from them? I'm not sure anymore.

I read they have a fifth game in the works to be published by Sega but my expectations are low. And that makes me sad.

Omg, Green Hornet. OH MY GOD, GREEN HORNET!!!

Someone on my Flist say you have seen it. I'm still not sure of what I just watched, except that I spent the entire time laughing my ass off or squealing or maybe swearing a few times. I'm usually not a Seth Rogen girl but he was such a little asshole, for some reason I loved the dumb goober. And Kato was like, omg, orgasmic. Please to be casting him in every movie from now on, kthnx.

It was all just so bizarre and stupid and damn entertaining. To speak nothing of the BLATANT HOMOEROTIC SUBTEXT. And not even in that "Eames kicks Arthur's chair, darling," kind of way, I mean in the Britt bends Kato over the foosball table and Kato punches him in the balls to get him off kind of way. JFC people. I took my BROTHER and my MALE FRIEND to this movie!

And once TK and I got home I had this horrible thought, that what I really watched was one 90 minute "gay is gross and that's why we're inviting you to laugh at it" joke. And ugh I really don't like that thought. I'd kind of like to find an interview where it's addressed...?

Ok one of you has to have seen it. What did you think??
croik: (robert is stuck)
So the other day I got this call from Cobb's agent, and he was all, "Did you even see the movie? Do you remember who the protagonist was?" And I was like, "HOSHI- you're right, sorry." And long story short...

Have you ever spent your entire work day plagued with the irrational fear that at any moment one of your coworkers will reveal themselves to be a mind reader??

Croik's New Years Resolution = make more time to write fic, to get all this kinky shit out of my brain. Also, lose 20 pounds.

Does anyone have an mp3 of the haircut music from Mulan? (Disney?) I can find it on youtube but I want it on my computer.

For Xmas I bought myself a new computer and a new desk to put it on. I have named it Zazi, for it is a beast of epicness (i7 processor, 8 gig ram, 1TB harddrive, Radeon graphics card). TK pointed out to me afterwards that it is not the most reliable of names, as it's likely now to be full of BUGS. Well, fuck. Too late, I gave him an icon and everything.

The unthinkable has happened: I have posted on a kinkmeme. Anonymously. You'll never find it.

...Until I de-anon and post it here, upon final completion.

Over Xmas Wesker hung out with our uncle's grumpy Cocker Spaniel. He was a little over excited about the whole affair but behaved himself well, and even started dropping his toys in front of Grumpster as if to say, "LOOK HOW MUCH FUN THIS IS!!!" We were so proud of him, but today on a walk an off-leash Boston Terrier came racing at him, and he was in far less of a playful mood. Must develop socialization further.

I am locked in combat with fans of Saw 3D at House of Jigsaw. My only recourse is to write graphic Hoffman/Gibson dubcon. None of you know what that means.

croik: (hyoo hyoo hyoo)
Finished my Yuletide assignment! This is relatively late for me, but hey, so were the assignments. I think last year I hade mine in by November... Obviously I can't reveal yet what I wrote but I hope my recipient likes it. It was fun~

How many times have I done Yuletide now!? Lesse, I've done...

-2004: The Rundown (Beck/Travis). Good times, good times. Wrote this for the same person who wrote for me, actually.

-2005: Drakengard (Caim/Inuart). I think I got a review on this one complaining that Caim was too mean, to which I was like...dude. CAIM. I still enjoy this one.

-2006: Ace Attorney (Mia/Lana) Whoa did you know I wrote femmeslash?? I think this was the only year AA was eligible until this year.

-2007: Doom (gen). This was the toughest to write. Really not my best, sorry recipient :<

-2008: Warriors Orochi (Date/Naoe). Probably the longest I've ever written for Yuletide and my favorite thing to come out of it. Looooove this pairing, I was so excited to get this assignment.

-2009: Drakengard again (gen). I like getting Drakengard assignments because it's the only time I replay the game and remember how crazy it is.

I've gotten some great stuff and gotten some...well, crap. And one year I got several! That was pretty cool :D But going into specifics there is probably not kosher, except I got some FFT Slash from a very sweet lady who defaulted, but then finished anyway and emailed it to me. Super classy.

Can't wait to see how 2010 turns out :D

Anyone else doing Yuletide this year!? If you haven't finished yet, good luck!!
croik: (Yuusaku!!)
Whoaaaaaaaa did you see Top Chef? Can't believe it! That shit was bananas! She was like...whoa. WHOA. Meltdown! (trying not to spoil since I'm posting minutes after the ep). Top Chef All Stars is NOT PLAYING.

Also, hey guys, it's APATOSAURUS, NOT BRONTOSAURUS. Jeez you're in a musuem, get it right! *shakes head in shame*

Also also, Dale reminds me of a big gay Tom Hardy who cooks delicious food. I don't know why this is. Cannot unsee. And no I'm not posting comparison pics because then you'll see how little they look like each other.

During my lunch break I doodled out a rough outline for this fic, and right now it's looking to end up at 18 chapters. At my current rate of posting that means it won't be finished until March. But according to the folks at [livejournal.com profile] inceptanon2 the fandom will be DEAD by February. Will I then be a zombie!?!?

One can only hope.
