swim through the fires to stay in this world

(OF COURSE Logan would have a romance with a woman we'll never see again. OF COURSE it's with the demure, suicidal female character instead of the lady swordfighter with more interesting family issues)with a ton of continuity errors from 'where did she get those jeans and that cardigan?' to 'so once again, I see the writers didn't watch the other X-men movies'. Also, there was not enough Wolverine fanservice.

Also, there was a sexy villainess who I greatly enjoyed watching slink around being sexy and evil and she has a line where she goes,"I'm immune to the poison that is men" or something like that and I went, "does that mean that you're going to be defeated by sword-lady making out with you?"Sadly, the answer is no.

Hands down, the best moment was when (and this is totally spoiler free) a character stabs a six hundred year old map. A woman two seat down saw that one coming and gasped preemptively. When a friend asked her why she'd gasped, she'd said in this voice of quiet outrage, "That was a 600 year old map."

Also, after watching the Thor 2 trailer, my friend turns to me and goes, "Do you think Jane is going to die?"

qualapec, I thought of you.

unfitforsociety posted two unbelievably fantastic Clint/Natasha recs yesterday.

In case you haven’t seen them already, Captain America 2 filming photos. I am so damn excited.Although not about Nat’s straight hair or brown boots with black pants. Please tell me that these are mock-ups and that in the movie she’ll look better. Steve Rogers, on the other hand, is looking excellent.

I am torn between using ‘the winter soldier is a ghost’ or ‘who the hell is bucky?!’ (with interrobang, of course) for my Cap 2 tag.

Also, as I was washing my hair this morning, I was wondering if Bucky is going to survive Cap 2. On the one hand, he did die last movie. On the other, I feel like Captain America movies should/might lean toward being downer movies. So I was wondering if he’d get dramatically killed at the end of the movie so it makes sense for him to not be in Avengers 2. Although I suppose him riding Steve’s bike off into the night to go off and atone for his sins would serve the story just as well.

In spoilery Avengers 2 news, apparently Quicksilver and Scarlett Witch are going to be in it? Which I am VEHEMENTLY opposed to. First, the X-men and the mutants don't fit into the world of the Avengers, secondly, Quicksilver and Scarlett Witch are Magneto's kids, aka that dude that you don't have the rights to use, but just about every viewer is going to be familiar with, third, the X-men franchise is a trainwreck, why are you letting even a whiff of that near your almost-perfect MCU, and FOURTH AND FINALLY, unless her power is DRASTICALLY reduced, Scarlett Witch is prohibitively powerful. She's likely to make the other cast members seem redundant and make it really hard for there to be a believable antagonist.

Put things on a human scale, people! That's when we care! Human scale!

It rained all day today, and was a Sunday, so I took a nap, did my taxes, painted my nails, and rewatched X-Men Origin: Wolverine.

Now, I know you're going, 'Red, you watched X-Men Origin: Wolverine once, isn't that enough?' and the answer is no. The answer is no, because my feelings on Wolverine as played by Hugh Jackman can be summed up by this gif:



In brief, the movie remains not good but not completely terrible, the credit sequence is AWESOME and the first half with Wolverine smoldering at his doomed love interest and being a LUMBERJACK in the CANADIAN WILDERNESS is worth my time. (Also, am I the only person who finds Liev Schreiber weirdly attractive....?)

This was a fun meme, so I decided to do it again with questions from the_sun_is_up :

Comment to this post and I will ask you about three top 5(s) (ships, songs, non-canon ships, movies, characters etc etc... whatever) that I would like to see you post about.

I was asked about top top five fictional weapons (not superpowers, actual weapons like swords and guns and stuff), top five moments of OTPness (any ships), and top five coolest hairstyles on a fictional character.

Top 5 Fictional Weapons:( If I Were A Weapon... )

Top 5 moments of OTP-ness (any ship):( Spoilers for Avatar, Bones, HIMYM, Soul Eater and Firefly )

Top 5 Coolest Hairstyles On A Fictional Character:

( Let Down Your Hair.... )

Name 12 fictional characters you would date and/or have sex with (in no particular order) and then then tag 5 people to do the same.

I've been tagged by sand3 so, may I present my boyfriends and girlfriends? (now with bonus picspam) Also, I did 13 because can you really have too much hotness?


Seeing this, it appears I have a glasses fetish. The things you learn about yourself via livejournal. *giggle*
