^___^
So, I logged on today, and guess what? I have 350 visits to my name! W00t!! I'd like to thank lots of people, but I'm not going to. If you think you deserve to be thanked, then by all means, thank you. I'm just lazy...

Saw Master & Commander yesterday; it was pretty good. It was a bit hard to keep track of things in the battle scenes, but that's probably how it was in RL. There was also a plot element I thought was contrived ("That bird's mine!"), but it was forgivable.

Today, on Yu-Gi-Oh...

I disliked the first episode; I thought Johnson/Big 3/Judege Man was a pretty okay guy, but it turns out he purpetuated the "crooked lawyer" stereotype. I hate that stereotype... And some of the dialogue just...sucked....

It was kinda nice to see all of Joey's chance cards to backfire for once, though. ^^;;

Now, Nesbitt/Big 4/Robotic Knight, on the other hand, was cool. This guy has the makings of a good character. He has it all:

*A clear trademark deck type (A *good* type; not like Gansly's swamp deck, Crumb's Penguien deck and Johnson's lawyer deck...)

*A good motivation (Kaiba shut down his life's work; so far, that's the best reason to hate Kaiba other than actually knowing him. ^_^)

*A distinct personality, complete with quirks.

I've never liked Bandit Keith, and thought his character was all wrong for Machine decks. (I'd pick him as an anti-Joey, using "evil" Warrior/Beast-Warriors)

Look at Rex: Goes for brute strength, like a dino. Weevil's a pest, Mai's a seductress who packs a punch, Mako's a sailor, Bakura and Marik's decks are evil...a machine deck player *should* be cold and robotic, not a gang punk.

too bad we'll probably never see Nesbitt again; he'd have been a cool recurring character....

Maybe he gets Tristen's body, and joins the cast. :P

Thought of the moment: Have I ever built a Machine deck? Should I?
