the one where i watch a buttload of TV

So, I watched that Batman AU, Under the Red Hood. I don't know Batlore at all, so my thoughts are coming from someone whose reactions mostly consisted of OMFG DEAN D:.

-- It was enjoyable in my mind to watch this like it's a S4 AU where Dean comes back from the dead, but ~came back wrong~ and then he takes revenge on the Joker Alastair. Z and I spent most of the watch either going D: or going OMG HE TOTALLY JUST SOUNDED LIKE DEAN THAT IS SOMETHING DEAN WOULD TOTALLY SAY OMG THAT WAS DEAN'S ANGST FOR A MINUTE THERE *_______* <33333 deeeaaaaaan

-- Alastair and the Joker would make such amazing BFFs, guys, omg. Singing "Cheek to Cheek" as they eviscerate victims, sassing each other unto eternity. <3333 sociopathic lifemates

-- I'M NOT USED TO SEEING THIS MUCH VIOLENCE IN CARTOONS. Have cartoons always been as violent? Am I just old and naive now? I mean, the crowbar D: and blood splatters and those three guys, and then they were DEAD, and and getting your head crushed by your own robot suit annnnnd! D:

-- That scene on the rooftop with Red Hood and Batman being gay for each other? And Jason takes off his mask? Ahaha. UNDER THIS MASK! IS ANOTHER MASK! lololololol

IN CONCLUSION: JOKER/ALASTAIR OTP


And then there was Rizzoli & Isles! I don't usually do procedural shows, but I was curious about this one because 1) it's set in Boston and I have a hard-on for Massachusetts, and 2) both the leads are women. It's like Bones if Angel was a girl. It's eh-okay so far. Needs moar Rizzoli/Isles subtext.

Speaking of shows set in Boston, I barely watch Leverage anymore, but JO HARVELLE WAS IN AN EPISODE so of course I had to watch that one and country singer Jo *________* SHE HAS SUCH A NICE VOICE. AS DOES CHRIS KANE. I feel like I'm missing out on some CWRPF joke/plot bunnies on account of how Chris Kane is actualfax in a band and JAckles sings country. Or something. Everything about Eliot being a country star was just winnnn win win. Isn't this the second time they've had to pull a deus ex Eliot? He had to be a baseball celebrity too.

The Bjork!Parker thing was UGH SO EXECRABLE, though. >:(


And thennnnn I watched

-- wtf Romeo did no one racefail-beta this shit uuuggggghhhhhhh

-- I barely recognized Greenly! And then it was like that moment from Hook -- "THERE you are, Greenly!" Man, he's gotten old. And fugs. But still adorably dumb! And then dead. :(

-- You know who else has gotten old and fugs? Connor! I had to check IMDB to make sure that was Sean Patrick Flanery, goddamn.

-- NORMAN REEDUS, ON THE OTHER HAND, REMAINS AS SEXY AS EVER.

-- I appreciate the callbacks! The cat. "Symbolism". Listening to crazy music while you figure out the crime scene.

-- If this whole movie had just been impressionistic reenactments of shoot-'em-outs, I would've been okay with that.

-- What the even fuck was that fucking stupid-ass dream. (I like that they dream in tandem tho.)

-- I'm glad Smecker isn't dead.

-- NOT ENOUGH BROCESTUAL SUBTEXT. Perhaps I will have to create some via fic.

-- I don't know how I feel about the implication of a third movie.

IN CONCLUSION: I'm just gonna reread paronymous/sepulchral again and be nostalgic for the old days.


I'm only watching a lot of shit because life has been rather :( lately. Tell me a joke, flist. Explain to me why Castiel crossed the road and why Sam is like a writing desk. Tell me about the plot bunnies that the S6 spoilers are giving you.

MAYBE CORBETT COMES BACK AND HAUNTS ED, BUT IN A NICE WAY, like sometimes Maggie finds Ed talking to himself and thinks maybe he's finally snapped. Maybe Corbett can become the team ghost and help them out of sticky situations with his ghostly powers!!

[identity profile] animus-wyrmis.livejournal.com 2010-07-27 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Maggie is like, Ed, are you okay? Do I have to call Mom? but then she realizes, oh wait, he's just talking to Corbett. And Corbett, like, he is their ~friend on the other side~ and can get into places they can't.

also, if they started posting their videos on youtube the comments would be awesome. "Lol the special effects suck" "Dude bring back Sam and Dean they were hot!" "i hate sam and dean".

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-07-27 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG YES THE MESSAGEBOARD SHENANIGANS

And then they start getting fanmail. Half of Ed's fanmail is like stupid treatises about why this Joe Shmoe should be the new member of the Ghostfacers, and half is going "Dude, your sister's hot". Maggie gets the most fanmail!

They have to start being aware of what is salt and what is iron, now that Corbett's back. There was the unfortunate incident with the gazpacho that we wouldn't want a repeat of.

aaagh I can't actually make the webisodes happen on my computer help! :( I get to the site and then I click on ghostfacers and then there is nothing there.

And the fanbase is, like, totally split on whether it is real or not, most of them think it's faked. But there are a few people that seem to think it is about REAL GHOSTS. some of them write letters: YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG. And Ed is like, whatever, who the hell are you anyway, Bobby Singer?

And the time they tried to go to McDonald's. Apparently the fries are too salty for ghosts!

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-07-27 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
OH NO. It's annoying finding the official site that hosts them. Try this: http://www.thewb.com/shows/ghostfacers/episode-1/7671ecb9-775a-4390-bb48-01924a189ab6

Yeah, and the cameraman just keeps offering fries to Corbett because he's a dick and Ed is like "STOP IT, THAT'S RACIST."

LOLOLOL BOBBY SINGER WOULD ABSOLUTELY GET DRUNK AND WRITE ANGRY LETTERS TO THE GHOSTFACERS FOR SHITS AND GIGGLES. It's like when Sam gets drunk and writes angry letters to Stephen King. That one is here: http://eighth-horizon.livejournal.com/tag/drunken%20sam-fu

<33333

And Maggie is like "Plus they're BAD FOR YOU," as she eats a Big Mac, and the cameraman is like WELL HE'S ALREADY DEAD and Ed is like HE'S RIGHT THERE, DON'T BE MEAN.

YOU DON'T KNOW THE FIRST THING ABOUT HUNTING, WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE WE DIDN'T EVEN HAVE EMF READERS AND WE WALKED UPHILL TO EVERY HAUNTING. omfgomfgomfg YES ::reads::

"AND WHEN A DEMON ENTERED A HOUSE IT DAMN WELL LOOKED FOR DEVIL'S TRAPS FIRST!"

I AM ON GHOSTFACERS EPISODE 3! is it bad I sort of want there to be Maggie/Winchester action.

YES OMFG YES SO AWESOME, ILU DEAN WITH YOUR COMMENTS. and Sam's concern that all lawyers are being tainted!

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-07-28 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
lol wyrm lol why is that a bad thing. Which Winchester do you fancy Maggie being with? :DDD

Oh god I love those letters. She's pretty hilarious. I also like her Eternally Reading Proof series too, but you need Season 4 knowledge for that. "IT'S OBVIOUS YOU'VE NEVER BEEN PSYCHIC A DAY IN YOUR LIFE, STEVE."

Right now I am feeling the Sam/Maggie vibe, but earlier I was all over Dean/Maggie. I guess it does not matter? But I was NOT HAPPY with Harry dumping her for Ambyr! Maggie <3. Also, I adore Ed. I want Ed/Corbett romance with people being all like "I...am not okay with this" and Ed being like "BECAUSE WE'RE GAY!? THAT'S SO RACIST!" and Maggie being like BECAUSE HE'S DEAD.

And cars can't be possessed, Steve! They can be cursed but that's DIFFERENT!

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-07-28 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
My instinct is for Sam/Maggie, but you're right, the more I think about one brother, the more I am for it. I can go either way! Harry was a dick anyway.

I want Ed/Corbett romance with people being all like "I...am not okay with this" and Ed being like "BECAUSE WE'RE GAY!? THAT'S SO RACIST!" and Maggie being like BECAUSE HE'S DEAD.

*_________*



OMG I WANT THIS SO BAD. I WANT THIS LIKE BURNING. OMG WHAT. WHERE DO THEY GO ON DATES. WHAT DO GHOSTS EAT. DOES CORBETT JUST WATCH ED EAT? DO THEY MAKE OUT? CORBETT JUST FULL-ON SWAYZE'D THAT SHIT. HOW DO THEY HAVE SEX? OMG. OMG. OMG. NEW OTP. fjdlfjkdjflsd

[identity profile] animus-wyrmis.livejournal.com 2010-07-28 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe it is like one of those things where she has UST/sexy making out with both of them! And the cameraman films it and Sam is like THAT IS REALLY CREEPY but Dean kind of likes it.

THEY GO TO THE MOVIES. Not horror films, because Ed worries it will give Corbett flashbacks ("Like he doesn't get one everytime he looks in the mirror?" "SHUT UP, HARRY"), and then after they go to get ice cream because once at a restaurant someone spilled salt everywhere and it was a big mess.

Ghosts can touch people! So they make out, like, in the back of the truck and sometimes when Ed is supposed to be looking for other ghosts. And Maggie is like, well, I guess you won't have to worry about herpes then...?

ED/CORBETT NEW OTP

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-07-28 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
DEAN WOULD. I bet Maggie and Sam could get into all sorts of interesting conversations about lore and theory and science, but with Dean it's like they're impressed by each other's engineering skills. And Harry in the background is trying to not be jealous of Winchester douchenozzles.

<333 HE DOESN'T WANNA GIVE CORBETT FLASHBACKS OH ED, SO SWEET. So they watch movies Corbett wants to watch but it ends up being stupid crap like Garden State, which is Corbett's favorite movie but ugh Ed has gone on at length about why Zach Braff should DIAF. But he'll sit through it for Corbett, because he <3s Corbett, poor Corbett who's dead and deserves happiness, even if he's dead. Especially because he's dead?

At the end of the movie Corbett notices, "You didn't like it."

"It was... okay."

"You can say you don't like it."

"I just... it's not Natalie Portman's best work."

But it kind of escalates into an increasingly familiar "are you just in this because you feel guilty I'm dead?" argument, and by the end, Corbett vanishes in a huff. Relationships suck.

The make-up sex is great though!

and then after they go to get ice cream because once at a restaurant someone spilled salt everywhere and it was a big mess.
<33333 SO CONSIDERATE. It's difficult dating a ghost, but they'll make it work!! <3

Re: ED/CORBETT NEW OTP

Maggie has a scorecard written down somewhere, like, Dean: +10 kissing, +20 sex, +6.5 conversation; Sam: +9 kissing, +15 sex, +12 conversation.

Maggie is like, Ed, where do you see this relationship going exactly? Because, um, it's sort of--weird, that you're dating, um, a bloody corpse.

And Corbett tries to do nice things like get Ed flowers, which is sort of difficult to do as a spirit. Also, his credit cards have all been canceled and his assets are being liquidated, but it's been sort of impossible to talk to the lawyer about that.

Yes they will! Ed feels bad that he didn't realize his feelings before the whole death thing, but he's willing to make up for it all now.

Re: ED/CORBETT NEW OTP

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-07-28 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, HOW TO DECIDE? And somehow Harry finds himself being her buddy about the whole thing because, well, they did say they were gonna stay friends, and this is totally being friends, talking about which Winchester douchenozzles to screw. Yeah, this is great. Harry and Maggie are such close friends. "But Dean has freckles, and I have a thing for freckles," Maggie goes on, and Harry says, "Sometimes in the summer I get freckles."

Yeah what kind of gifts can Corbett bring? Maybe directions to somewhere cool? Maybe messages from Ed's dead childhood pet? Maybe on a hot summer day, Ed is like, "C'mere," and Corbett is cool against his skin?

[identity profile] animus-wyrmis.livejournal.com 2010-07-28 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
Harry kind of hopes that she'll get over this thing about the Whinechesters and move onto him, but then she goes and says things like "Here, I've got pictures of both their arms, who do you think has the better biceps?" and Harry looks at his arm and makes this face: D: because he doesn't have better biceps.

BURIED TREASURE. He goes and finds the spirits of pirates and stuff and finds out where they hid their stuff and tells Ed. And Ed is like, Corbett, you don't have to prove your love with gold, but Corbett is like I JUST WANT TO OKAY and then they make out for a while, and does ghost blood stain your clothes?

Re: ED/CORBETT NEW OTP

[identity profile] twoskeletons.livejournal.com 2010-07-28 06:56 am (UTC)(link)
WHINECHESTERS LOLOL Harry is a clever man XD

Say Maggie picks Sam! (It was a really close call.) I bet Dean, who has been very observant, clasps Harry's shoulder and is like, "Don't worry, man. She'll come around." And maybe they have a couple of sympathy drinks, and start to really talk, about girls and ghosts (as boys do) and Harry finds himself thinking this guy isn't so bad after all.

ahahaha their love is as beautiful as a chestful of gold doubloons <333. Do ghosts HAVE blood? Or can they blood ghost blood but it can only stain another ghost's ghost clothes?

Re: ED/CORBETT NEW OTP

[identity profile] animus-wyrmis.livejournal.com 2010-07-28 05:47 pm (UTC)(link)
And Dean is like, don't worry about it, Sam's not the boyfriend type, he's too sensitive, girls don't like that stuff.

Yeah! Sometimes Corbett goes ghost-to-ghost with evil spirits and gets blood all over their clothes. But it never seems to make his less stained, for some reason.
