Darth Vader's SUPAR SEKRITT apprentice holds his lightsaber like I always imagined Tenel Ka to hold hers in a fight. THIS MEANS THEY ARE RELATED.

*fanfictions*

Looks like Kriff This! will becoming more of a general board (but not too general -- Star Wars crack is and always will be the board's MAIN LIFE FORCE LOL). SO SOMETHING (or lots of things) AWESOME NEEDS TO BE ON THE LOGO. WHAT SHOULD IT/THEY BE?


(OMG WHO WANTS TO PLAY LEFT 4 DEAD WITH ME? OGOGMOMSFOGMSFOGJSDIFJDJFKLSD :OOOOOO)

DEAD SPACE! STRATEGIC DISMEMBERMENT. MUST PLAY. Y/N?

Also, SILENT HILL HOMECOMING NEW FOOTAGE. BIOSHOCK EXTRA STUFF. RESIDENT EVIL 5 NEW TRAILER! fsdkjfajksdf sdklfjas I must make a coherent post about these later but but but but right now I'm just lke OH HAY OH HAY!

Back still hurts. Especially when I'm driving in the car. Ibuprofen is not working. I'm gonna switch to something else and see what happens.

I started reading Lisey's Story again. I told myself I was going to look at it for any more costume bits I might need, but I ended up just plain reading it. I can't help it. I love that book. Looooove.

OKAY. I have posed a question on Kriff This! I have posed this same question before, but now I know a good number of us on there are pretty much burnt out on Star Wars after Legacy of the Force -- so the name would stay the same, the forums would stay the same, etc. (it's explained better in that thread) -- but keep it a "star wars forums with some other assorted crappery"...? or "a general forum with some SW shit still on it" -- meaning the logos would stop being so STAR WARS ORIENTED.

We love new members and the covers of LotF (especially since it's end :|) probably aren't arousing much YAY I WANT TO JOIN THIS BOARD. (P.S. EVERYONE JOIN THE BOARD PLZ XD)


(http://bancomicsans.com/home.html -- effing LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL! <3)


P.S. THE NEW SEASON OF PROJECT RUNWAY IS ON TONIGHT. :D

I went to the doctor's today.

I got a shot. On my ass. I thought "well at least it's not a vein and i won't feel it whatever whatever i am trying to tell myself it will be nothing" -- yes, cause hobbling to my car and flinching everytime I hit a bump on the way home -- HEATHER, A SHOT ON YOUR ASS IS NOTHING. IT'S NOTHING.

And I have to take twelve ibuprofen a day again, just like I was doing with my foot.




HAPPY MONDAY TO YOU ALL. :|

I don't know what everyone's BFD is and all the complaints about the box cover -- I kind of adore it. Creepy little children ALWAYS WIN.

WAIII THE FONT IS LAMOR! WAIII IT'S NOT A BIG FACE SLAPPED ON THE BOX LIEK TEH REST! WAIIII IT'S NOT A DIRECT RIP-OFF OF SILENT HILL 2!!111 WAIIIII~~~~

DUDES, stfu and give the game a chance. No one buys games for THE BOX ART.

Also, I am still creeped out about the Shepard family that Alex and his brother are a part of. I mean MARY SHEPARD-SUNDERLAND. ANY RELATION? Although, I think Mary's was Shepherd, but I haven't played that game in forever (WHAT?! I KNOW) and I will be playing it soon.

YAY SILENT HILL 5'S ESRB RATING WAS ANNOUNCED -- M FOR MATURE LOL! Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Language and Sexual Themes. Good to see the old pals like INTENSE VIOLENCE and SEXUAL THEMES are still around!

So yeah. Sitting in the car on the way back from PA for five and a half hours today (thanks traffic) was not fun at all and did wonders for my BROKEN ASS. Now my neck hurts, as does my WHOLE BACK.

I was debating making a doctor appointment in case I BROKE MYSELF, but maybe I'm just being paranoid (lololol like this is a new thing) and my back and neck are hurting cause I sat in the car and not completely because I fell all up on my backside and crap. Although I'm sure that's part of it.

I guess I will wait a day or two and see how it feels then. If it still feels like this I am calling the doctor. I will have to stand at my desk for periods tomorrow cause I can't sit on my ass all day. D:

WTF 2008? First the tennis ball cyst, then the sinus infection, then my poor cat got my pain, then my foot and now my broken ass. WHAT WHAT WHAT???//


But there is good news that is balancing out all this crap. This lightsaber is waiting for me at the post office. Now I just need to order the blade for it. And even it this BROKEN ASS PAIN, this is enough to make me go :D.

HI FROM PITTSBURGH!

I am sitting in the living room of Valerie and Brian's (aka zoopiglet & ben_ethus aka my sister and almost brother-in-law) apartment watching Black Sheep which = LOLOLOLOL~

Mom and Valerie and I went to look for wedding dresses for Valval's wedding (next April) today and VALERIE GOT HER WEDDING DRESS! We also found my bridemaid dress and we're both done. AND IT'S ONLY JULY. XD

I also broke the fuck out of my coccyx (my tailbone -- i just like typing/saying COOCOCOCYYYX!) today. Mom and I were walking from the guest apartment down here to theirs and I slipped on the grassy hill on the way down cause it was sort of wet. My hands were full so I couldn't stop myself from falling so I can't walk or sit without it hurting. And according to WebMD and shit, when you hurt that it takes weeks to go away. :|

This means I get to suffer in the car on the way back from Pittsburgh or lay down somehow. I'm basically supposed to not sit down as much as possible. D: NOT. COOL. I am sitting on a funny cushion thing so I don't put any weight on it.

skdjfskdjfakjdfs PAIN.

I know I've said it before -- many times, in fact.

But but but...



KEVIN ZEGERS AND ZAC EFRON ARE SECRETLY RELATED. SRSLY.

(DORKS~ <3)



And how OMG YAY!!! :DDDDD was the Bollywood routine on So You Think You Can Dance tonight? SO CUTE.

Celebration V rumored cities.

I'm assuming if it was in Baltimore it would be in the same convention center as Otakon. I would love it if it was in Baltimore, for obvious reasons -- but Baltimore is a big suckfest to drive in. D:

Orlando. Well, if they had it there and it was in the convention center I'm thinking of then it would be AMAZING. But the pull of Disney World would mean I would be there the whole time and not at Celebration. SORRY, STAR WARS. WALT DISNEY HAS GOT YOU PWNED ON MY LIST OF PRIORITIES.

(Also, you killed my favorite character and Disney never does that shit.)

BALTIMORE FTW?





(The Fall is still playing in Shirlington and I'm like KJFDSJKHFJSDHFDSJ ONE MORE TIME?)

I'm gonna post the first part of the Star Wars/Bioshock crossover/mash-up thing here soon, so I figure this post is needed for anyone who is into the Star Wars: EU (post-RotJ) and has no idea what the hell a Bioshock is. I would do one of these for the Star Wars aspect of the story too, but there's really nothing Star Wars-specific to it. If you've read the EU, you'll know these characters and their traits. If you haven't then it'll just be like a cracktastical Bioshock fanfiction, complete with crack, wtf moments and more crack. :D

Just a short little intro of many yays to TEH UNDERWTAER WOLRD OF BOISHOCK. XD

( BIOSHOCK INTRODUCTION/GLOSSARY. )


BUT HERE IS MY CAST LIST DRAMATIS PERSONAE, LOL. Well, okay, not really. Just characters in/mentioned in the story.

And I mean some of these are characters who are only even just mentioned once -- and their Star Wars counterparts. I just had to make a list of Star Wars counterparts. MUAHAHAHAH~

Alana Dooley Soloman (Allana)
Andrew "Andy" Soloman (Anakin Solo)
Drake (Droekle)
Ezekiel/"Zeke" (Zekk)
Isaak (Isolder)
Jackson Fellows (Jagged Fel)
Jane Soloman (Jaina Solo)
Jase Soloman (Jacen Solo)
Karen Wells (Taryn Zel)
Kip Durant (Kyp Durron)
Kristin Wells (Trista Zel)
Louie (Lowbacca -- "Lowie")
Raymond Thurston (Raynar Thul)
Tanith Kendall Dooley (Tenel Ka Djo)
Teneil Dooley (Teneniel Djo)
Victoria "Torry" Tela (Tahiri Veila)

(EEEHEHEHE, TENEL KA THE REDHEAD WITH HER IRISH LAST NAME. XD)

So I'll start posting this shiz like tomorrow or something. Something something.

"ZOMBIES! HOW DARE YOU!"


... I love Revelations: Persona so much. XD

I am sitting here eating McDonald's.

WHAT COULD BE MORE AMERICAN THAN THAT? XD

djfkdsjf that movie was even more amazing the second time around. I also caught the fact that Alexandria liked the slave and the indian because she "knew" them. The others she wasn't so sure of (orderly/Darwin & "pirate" actor/Luigi). Lee Pace crying is the most hypnotizing thing ever. Oh oh oh and him in makeup. And the look he gets before the masked bandit is suddenly french. YES. I CAN'T YES ENOUGH. I think my favorite line/delivery is: "IT SAYS ALL OF THAT ON THAT LITTLE LOCKET...?" And Alexandria when she flips out over the dead body and is all, "WAKE UP OR THEY'LL CUT YOU UP."

OH MAAAAAAAAAN. Mia Michael's killed it on SYTYCD last week with the group routine. I was so happy to see Mark leading (he was so perfectly creepy for the role) and the song (THAT SONG, I CAN'T BELIEVE SHE USED THAT SONG <3). Not to mention the whole feel of it. It took Wade's zombies and Mia's own Danny-in-a-skirt routine and threw them together and added a whole crack-circus theme. I loved it.

PARTAKE IN THE CRAZY-MAZINGNESS.

...and I've started posting on IMDb forums. This... this is bad. D: So far I've dropped posts in the Clue, So You Think You Can Dance, Stephen King, Bag of Bones, Wall-E and I Love the new Millennium forums. Hehehehe. And you can bet your ass I will be all over The Long Walk board when that jank goes up.

EW.com is doing their NEW CLASSIC lists and they released the first 25 of the top 50 for the NEW CLASSIC VIDEO GAMES. Silent Hill 2 made the list at 44! :O THAT EXCITES ME. Psychonauts at 43! KOTOR at 30! BIOSHOCK AT 28! :D

I will be shocked if number one isn't something like GTA or Halo -- or if those two aren't at least in the top five.

(LOL, iReporters on Starfbucks closing a number of their stores and why a lot of them don't give a shit:

"I already have to spend $4 a gallon on gas, why would I spend $4 for 12 oz of coffee?"

"You're kidding me, right? Anyone heard of the Mr. Coffee machine? You can get one for $15, and set it to have your coffee ready for you when you roll out of bed, then it turns off an hour later so as not to burn your house down should you forget to turn it off."

I also will never forget someone's awesome quote on Time Magazine's website when all Starbucks stores closed for three hours one day for mandatory employee retraining or some shit awhile back: "I'm not sure why it's going to take them three hours to learn how to press a button.")

So I'm about 95% sure I'm going to see The Fall again either tomorrow or the next day. This is odd because, yes, I am not a fan of movie theaters (and omg the PRICE). But this movie is totally eating my mind and I want to go see it again so bad.

I think the last movie I saw more than once in the theaters was either Revenge of the Sith or Napoleon Dynamite. More than two years ago. :| And that should be enough to show how enamored I am with this movie. Hehehe~

So it's a little more than three paragraphs and pretty much only makes sense if you know what happens in the LotF series, but wow. I am suddenly a fan of writing Zekk and Tenel Ka like nasty masterminds. Also, the mental image of them lounging around in the gardens is just hot. I don't know what it is. I think it's all the green mixed with all that black/gray/copper. And touchy-feely Zekk. D:


( Especially those two selfish twin children of Han and Leia. )

THE SANDLOT IS ON. <3 "FOREVER. FOREVER. FOOOORRREEEVVVEEERRR."

I have decided something. And this is how it will always be in my head now. Always.

Tenel Ka and Zekk were sick of getting screwed and totally not respected by the MOST POPULAR FAMILIES (LOL S/S) IN THE GALAXY so they plotted together to bring them down. Anakin Solo and the trip to Myrkr -- those were only the start.

Tenel Ka and Zekk continued to get into Jacen and Jaina's heads, respectively -- until Tenel Ka drove Jacen to the Dark Side by having a child that he had to FIERCELY PROTECT TO THE ENDS OF THE GALAXY and Zekk continued to make Jaina confused over which boy she wanted to take to the movies that weekend until she took out her anger and frustration on her twin brother.

This drove both of the Solo kids to murder other members of their family aka the Solo/Skywalker clan. This also, of course, made the whole family a bunch of emo, whiny, annoying bitches.

Suddenly Zekk goes "missing" (this was his plan all along, you see)...

And With Isolder and Jacen gone and Allana being taken care of by Han and Leia...

This leaves Zekk and Tenel Ka together on Hapes. He's not really missing, he's just hanging out in the Fountain Palace gardens on a bunch of cushions getting fed the GFFA equivalent of grapes by handmaidens with Tenel Ka casually resting her head on his stomach and going over Royal Shit on datapads. And then of course they sleep together at night, in more ways than one. *winkwinknudgenudge*

So yeah, everyone = "OH SHIT, ZEKK WENT MISSING. WE MUST FIND HIM."
Zekk and Tenel Ka on Hapes: "LOL, losers."

And all the tabloids are like, "SOLO/SKYWALKER CLAN GONE MAD?" And the Queen Mother and the Lost One know their work here is mother-effing done.

Lumiya who? Caedus what? Alema? Tahiri? LAWD NO, it was Tenel Ka and Zekk all along!

This is how Legacy of the Force ended for me.


(I smell like three paragraph extremely short and to the point fanfiction somewhere. And I'm going to find that bitch and type it up.)

Dragon*Con is lucky I'm already bringing eight costumes to it or I would so make the Masked Bandit's outfit from The Fall.

(THOSE PANTS CONSUME ME AND I COULD NOT STOP LOOKING AT THEM. THEY ARE GIGANTIC AND AMAZING.)



And dude, to add to the kid in that movie -- her awesomeness. The IMDb trivia page for The Fall says: "Catinca Untaru [Alexandria] didn't speak English. She learned her lines by heart."

Also...

"A miscommunication between the casting agent and Catinca Untaru led her to believe that Lee Pace was a real-life paraplegic. Director Tarsem Singh found that this brought an added level of believability to their dialogue, so he decided to keep almost the entire cast and crew under the same impression. Singh had to speak to the actor playing Alexandria's father and explain that his role was smaller than it appeared, since the script implied that he played the role of the bandit (actually played by Pace) in the fantasy scenes. Apparently it was hard to keep up the lie - a makeup artist walked into a room to find Pace standing and almost passed out from shock."

Heeeeee~

So Ronnie, Erin, Jeremy, Alex and I went to go see The Fall earlier tonight. I loved it, but the longer I sit here and think about it the more I adore it.

TRAILER! The imagery = ksdjfaksjdfk eyegasm and the storyline is a big A+ -- I also love the way the characters/items/everything fit everywhere in the story. And I also loved how the story just deteriorated into a big mess when Roy was hitting the bottle and all that. YESSSSS.

Kids usually annoy the crap out of me in movies. I was absolutely in love with Alexandria. She acted like a little kid and not some pretentious snot-nose little tool you see in most movies.

Also, I am in love with Lee Pace. He was one big YES PLEASE in this movie. The way he snakes from this charming, endearing OH-SO-CUTE fellow into this manipulative, sleazy thing ("I think he stole something of mine.") -- yet I STILL FELT BAD FOR HIM. NO NO YOU DON'T NEED THE MORPHIN3 MORPHINE.

BTW, his actress crush/ex-girlfriend chick was a bitch.

ALRIGHT, RAMBLING INCOHERENTLY SLEEP TIME.

Here is my PLAYBACK REVIEW of the first three games on my GREAT VIDEO GAME HEIST OF 2008 list. I have completed three! :O


1.) LAURA BOW: THE COLONEL'S BEQUEST (Sierra) -- PC -- 1989
MAIN CHARACTER: Laura Bow
FAVORITE CHARACTER: Lillian Prune
GAME TYPE: Graphic Adventure game/type-command interface
SOMETHING NEW NOTICED THIS TIME AROUND: The doctor's last name is Feels (and he's a perv), main family members last names include Dijon and Prune -- also, I followed drunk Ethel around the mansion grounds this time, for the first time, and it was hilarious. XD
RECAPULET: LOLOLOLOLOL, this game is so cheesy old but it still amuses me to this day. The characters are actually fleshed out really well and when they start dropping like flies it's like, "OH SNAP IT'S GETTING ALL FREAKY UP IN HERE!" And you can always amuse yourself by finding new and exciting ways to get Laura Bow killed. I always loved the whole vibe. 1920's/Art Deco/old New Orleans mansion in the bayou. Sierra really raised the bar with this sort of stuff back in the day and it's a lot of fun to see where they started with these games. And making Laura fall down the laundry chute is always fun. :D



2.) MYST (Cyan) -- PC -- 1993
MAIN CHARACTER: YOU XD
FAVORITE CHARACTER: Sirrus
GAME TYPE: Point-and-click Adventure/Puzzle
SOMETHING NEW NOTICED THIS TIME AROUND: I... I already know like everything about this game. D:
RECAPULET: Whenever I play this I still can't believe it came out in 1993. The graphics at today's standards aren't anything great, but back then it was like, "ARE YOU SEEING THIS SHIT? DUDE!" Sirrus and Achenar also never get old. I love when Sirrus is talking about Achenar and he pauses in the middle of sentences and just shakes his head like "UGH THAT TOOL" -- also when Achenar giggles like he's on speed. On the surface, people always pass it off as "O SUM GRAPHIX OR SUMMIN'" or "WHATEVAH, SUCH A BORING GAEM." But this is because they don't bother to play/explore or they suck at puzzles and DON'T MAKE IT OFF OF MYST ISLAND -- I have talked to at least three people who say the game sucks and then five minutes later it's: "WAIT, THERE'S OTHER PLACES TO GO TO BESIDES THE ISLAND?" ... really, people?

No matter how many times I play this game, to this day I can still picture Will, Branch and Emmit when I read the Stoneship journal, I still get chills when I touch Achenar's altar that CAN CHOMP YOUR HAND OFF, I still get lost in the music and I still love when you hit up D'ni without the white page and Atrus is like, "WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM? NOW YOU'RE STUCK HERE TOO, DUMBASS. D:" The background that has spawned from this game astounds me as well. <3



3.) PHANTASMAGORIA (Sierra) -- PC -- 1995
MAIN CHARACTER: Adrienne Delaney
FAVORITE CHARACTER: Don Gordon (Adrienne = close second)
GAME TYPE: Point-and-click Horror
SOMETHING NEW NOTICED THIS TIME AROUND: The way the portrait is different when you look into the dining hall mirror! I actually found Cyrus and Harriet's bodies this time too!
RECAPULET: Ohmigawd. Seriously. The last time I really went through this whole game I was little. And I didn't watch any of the "SUPER BAD" parts cause Mom was like, "LOL YOU'RE TEN DON'T LOOK." I knew they were considered OMG TABOO for their day and genre (RATED M FOR PC GAME???/) but yeah, it warranted an M. It looks like YEAH WHATEVER compared to today's movies/games/etc., but that was 1995 and HEADS EXPLODING and DEMON RAPE was like, WAIT WHAT JUST HAPPENED?! At the beginning of chapter 4 I was like, "Oh, lol demon rape in a computer game this part can't be that bad." BUT I THINK IT WAS. I mean, I remember when I was little and I didn't really pay attention cause Mom told me not to look and I amused myself with totally zoning out. But I just figured HAHA THEY ARE SO MAKING OUT OR SOMETHING.

NO. Don's like, "HAY THAR MY LITTLE WIFEY~" And Adrienne's like, "YOU ARE ACTING LIKE SUCH A DICK LATELY BUT OKAY WE CAN FOOL AROUND." No no no, he most definitely had his way with her after that and left her sobbing on the bathroom floor while he WANDERED OFF WITHOUT A WORD AND A SECOND GLANCE. I was like, "OH SHIT I MISSED THIS BEFORE WAIT WHAT? DEMON RAPE????? THIS GAME IS EVEN MORE EFFED THAN I ORIGINALLY PIMPED."

And then all of Carno's WIFE-MURDERS I didn't watch when I was little and pretty much almost forgot about. Stabbing Hortencia DOWN THE THROAT WITH A GARDEN SPADE. Twisting Leonora's NECK 360 DEGREES. Force-feeding Regina WITH A FUNNEL AND A ROLLING PIN AND ANIMAL INSIDES (this part actually made me QUEASY). And man, when he slams Victoria's eyes into a broken wine bottle. I don't mean, "here eye -- meet my broken wine bottle" -- I mean he grabs the back of her head and BASHES HER FACE DOWN INTO IT. And then he grabs her hair and pulls her back and you can see THE BOTTOM OF THE WINE BOTTLE WHERE HER EYE SHOULD BE. DAMN! They got away with so much in this game! I seriously sat there and replayed this one like: 8O

LOVE IT. FORGOT HOW MUCH I LOVED IT. LOVE IT MORE NOW. APPRECIATE THE GORE. A+++ WOULD DO BUSINESS WITH YOU AGAIN, ROBERTA WILLIAMS.

( AND THE UPDATED VISUAL AID LIST SHIT. :D )

You know, it's a miracle I ever get any stories written/finished at all. And this post is an example of that. Here I give you 18 (and this isn't even all of them :|) tiny snippets of unfinished stories of mine -- original and fanfiction. One day I will finish them all. Seriously. Dammit. For real.

THESE ARE LIKE LITTLE WINDOWS TO MY SOUL OR SOME SPIRITUAL BULLSHIT. XD

---

There were times in bed, when she was pressed between the wall and his body, that she could hear him snoring quietly and she would curl up against his back and run her fingers up and down his spine, thinking about the name "Priscilla McVries" -- it had a nice ring to it. [ STEPHEN KING/THE LONG WALK -- LUCKY HER ]

---

And with that, Tenel Ka crumbled to the ground, burying her face into the carpet of the long and empty corridor. In only a few days she had lost the three most important things she had left in her life.

The three only things. [ STAR WARS -- DEFEAT ]

---

Zekk pulled Allana into his lap, the little girl nuzzling her head into his chest and wrapping her arms around him. He could feel her eyes watering up against his shirt, the warm tears soaking through and the sniffles hitting his ears, muffled and quiet. Zekk sensed that she felt safe in his arms, which struck him as odd, since usually she hid from him when she saw his tall and lanky form and his mess of ebony hair. "Are you okay?" He asked quietly.

She said nothing for a few moments.

"Mommy talks in her sleep. She says stuff about Daddy," she said suddenly. [ STAR WARS -- FILICIDE ]

---

Falling to his knees beside his brother, Branch buried his head in his brother's uniform jacket, his tears finally trickling from his bright blue eyes and onto the embroidered patch sewn on the left pocket. Their school seal soaked up most of his tears, the emblem growing a darker crimson and a navy blue as he sobbed over his brother's chest.

"What the fuck do you want from us?!" He screamed finally, over his brother, spit flying from his parted lips and angry, bloodshot eyes shut against the surroundings.

Nothing responded to him, not that he expected it to. It had just killed, therefore it would be a good while before it would strike again. [ ORIGINAL -- CURRENTLY UNTITLED ]

---

( More original, along with lots of Star Wars fanfiction (Taryn/Zekk, J/TK, etc.), Bioshock/SW, Bioshock, Myst, Stephen King... so much shit, dude. O_O )

...what should I finish first? D:
