   It's Monday where the sun don't shine...
Hey, all. Ok, I know I usually don't rant, but today, I have a rant.

WHY CAN'T THE FRIGGIN; FRESHMEN BRING THEIR OWN PENCILS TO ART CLASS INSTEAD OF USING ALL MINE?!?!?!? THERE'S EVEN A BOX OF SPARE PENCILS THEY NEVER LOOK IN! THEY NEVER LISTEN AND THEN ASK ME ALL THE QUESTIONS UNDER THE SUN!

Ok, rant over.

In other news, I'm still obsessing about my ROTK soundtrack and TTT dvd's, so don't be surprised if I randomly start talking about it on some site, AIM, or MSN.

Woo hoo! Molly finally got one! Yippee Kay-Yay! I think it was Michel Caine in Miss Congeniality. Ok, here's Monday's. Shanny's not aloud to answer cause I talked with her about it last night.

"Good morning my neighbors!"

"F*CK YOU!"

"Yes! F*ck you too!"

Haha, classic, that one.
Chill out.

   Boo, it's Sunday.
So...I missed the first half of Justice League last night. So, of course I missed all the action, I'm guessing and didn't really get the enitire story. Anyone that saw it, did they mention Ray Plamer as in Atom Man Ray Palmer? Atom Man's pretty cool, for a geek. I also saw the Kenshin where my little animation comes from ^^^^.Bad cliffie, though.
I also spent some money on myself and bought an Inuyasha DVD, you know, just for kicks. 18 BUCKS FOR THREE EPISODES! IT'S INSANE! But I liked the episodes. The ones where Inuyasha's the human, and the two where Kikyo's body comes back to life. I watched it at my friend's house, and he doesn't really watch anime, so he really liked. I told him what time it was on, though, and that discouraged him. But I said he could borrow my Bebop DVD's sometime too. He also gave me the Counting Crows greatest hits cd for my b-day(hehe, Shanny, I'll be singin' alot more), but it's still not as cool as the ROTK soundtrack. I know, I spund like some major promotional venue, but I'm ok with that. I also got a chance to check out my new starbucks card I got two days ago. Works fine. Har dee har har.

Ok, yesterday was Tom Hanks in You've Got Mail. I was in a chick flicky mood. Too bad no one got it. Not even Beckster. :(
Here's today's:

"One brief, shining moment, and then that mouth."

Haha, LOVE this movie. Peace out, yo.

Hey everyone. As you all probably know by now, the ROTK soundtrack is out, and it's awsome.
The soundtracks get progressively better. But, the one song at the end, it's really pretty, and it brought tears to me and Shanny and Beck's eyes(or at least they say it will). So I thought I'd at least share the lyrics.

Into The West

Lay down
Your sweet and weary head
Night is falling
You have come to Journey's end

Sleep now
Dream-of the ones who came before
They are calling
From across a distant shore

Why do you weep?
What are these tears upon your face?
Soon you will see
All of your fears will pass away

Safe in my arms
You're only sleeping

What can you see
On the horizon?
Why do the white gulls call?

Across the sea
A pale moon rises
The ships have come
To carry you home

And all will turn to sliver glass
A light on the water
All souls pass

Hope fades
Into the world of night
Through shawdows falling
Out of memory and time

Don't say
We have come now to the end
White shores are calling
You and I will meet again

And you'll be here in my arms
Just sleeping

What can you see
On the horizon?
Why do the white gulls call?

Across the sea
A pale moon rises
The ships have come
To carry you home

And all will turn to sliver glass
A light on the water
Grey ships pass
Into the West

Hola, todos!
Whoa, finished watching the 2nd half of LOTR:TTT extended edition. I LOVE the seen where the hobbits find the weed and get high. Haha. After that, I watched the first half of the movie AGAIN with cast commentary. That wormtoungue dude talked alot, but the other actors seemed to like him alot. Orli, as the others call him, didn't talk enough. Viggo didn't talk at all. 'Sup wit dat?
Then I watched 3/4ths of the 1st appendix.I learned a hell of alot about five races worth of battle armor. Can YOU tell me the difference between the 4 kinds of Uruk-Hai helmets? Huh? Can you? That's what I thought. Anyway, it's REALLY good. And that's just the 1st appendix. There was also a great part in the commentary where the Sam guy goes "God, Pete was giving us the most shit about lembas bread. 'It's leeeeeeeeemabs, not lambas, leeeeeeeeembas', he would say." There was also a good part where John Rhys-Davies fooled Peter Jackson into thinking he had cut his finger off, when he and one of the art directors made a prostheitic finger. That was great. I was laughing my ass off.
One more thing...anyone know how to get the Gollum out of the box? I can't do it. He's like, stuck in there. And I on't want to rip up the box cause it's sooo nice...

Beck srikes again! It was indeed World is Not Enough with Q and 007.

"Do you ever feel you become the worst
version of yourself? That a Pandora's Box of all the secret hateful parts --your arrogance, your spite, your condescension -- has sprung open.Someone provokes you, and instead of just smiling and moving on, you zing them. Hello, it's Mr.Nasty."

Hasta la vista, baby.

   WOOOO, IT'S GETTIN HOT IN HERE, CAUSE IT'S MY B-DAY!
HEY EVERONE! IT'S MY MOFO B-DAY! I'M 17! R RATED MOVIES GALORE!
Anyway. I didn't update today, cause I had to go into DC to look at art museaums for a project. It was really wet. But I navigated through DC for the first time without a parent. My Asian friend kept getting asked by people for money. we don't know why. Except the fact he looks like a dork with money, I spose. Then at the end of the day, I had to sneak a gingerbread latte onto the Metro under my sweatshirt. Which ain't fun, cause it spills on you. But I kept saying to all my buddies(I GET FIRST PICK OF SEATS CAUSE IT'S MY BIRTHDAY! I'M FIRST IN LINE AT THE VENDOR'S CAUSE IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!) You know, it's got advantages.
Upon returning home, I promptly opened my presents, which, the more mentionable ones include:
X-2
THE RETURN OF THE KING SOUNDTRACK WHICH IS FRICKIN' AWSOME
and...
THE TWO TOWERS EXTENDED EDITON, WHICH I WATCHED AFTER X-2! If I'm not on a lot tomorrow, it's because I plan to watch the ENTIRE thing, all Saturday. I REALLY want to see the cast commentary.
AND ALL LOTR FANS HALF TO BUY THE ROTK SOUNDTRACK BECAUSE IT'S THE BEES' MOTHERF*CKIN KNEES!

TIGRESS; FANTASTICAL MOVIE QUOTES
What was yesterday, Will Smith in MIB? I can;t remember...Today, the quote is...

"Was it something I said?"

"No. Something you DESTROYED. My fishing boat. For my retirement. Away from YOU!"

I love that quote. A bit longer today, but it's worth it.

See you, Space Cowboy...

   HAPPY THANKSGIVING FROM STRONG BAD!

Happy T G Day, dawgs
So, this morning(not at one in the morning) I was watching that Parade. You know, the big one. They show on tv. In front of that department store. ANYway, the entire time, I was thinking to myself "Wow, it must REALLY suck to be one of those people that stand in front of the float and wear road signs and crap on their head and try to dance while gay-ass Aaron Carter or whoever, is singing. I wonder how much they get payed. IF they get paid." Anyway, the entire thing is kinda weird now, I think. They only had ONE rock band that I saw. And I HATE that band. Simple Plan. "I'm a dick-I'm addicted to you". Humph.
That reminds me. Did anyone ever see that Friends where Joey has to be on the float with the cast of Days of Our LIves and he's watching tv and he sees the float go by? Lol.I LOVE all the Friends Thanksgiving Episodes. Last night I was watching the one where Chandler has to stay in the box. Monica is going out with Richard's son and they're all like "ewww". Then Monica goes and points to each one in turn "Ok, married a lesbian, left a man at the alter, lives in a box!" I don't remember Joey and Pheobe's, though.

Ok, yesterday was the late great JOHN CANDY in Uncle Buck. As Uncle Buck. Today, being a holiday, I tried to find a TGday one, but I don't have that much patience. So, instead I'll use this one that came into my head while washing the dishes last night.

"N.Y.P.D. Gonna Knock Yo Punck-Ass Down!"

That's not hard, I just think it's funny.
Happy Turkey Day, folks.

   WOO HOO! IT'S ONE IN THE MORNING!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE! I FEEL F'N CRAZY! I stayed up all night watching Cirque Du Solei, The World is Not Enough, Dr. No, Whose Line, and finally Futurama, Family Guy(The one where they figure out they're black, lol), Inuyasha(an old ep, though) and Big O. Wow.

I've done alot of thinking on our 'Boys in Tights' situation. Basically, I want to end this right now. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion. And while I had fun defeding 'ol Bats, I don't want to be doing it for the rest of my internet life. So, next time someone says "Yo, Supes is the coolest guy I've ever seen" another person should just go "Yeah, he's cool, but I dunno, I like Bats better." and the first person should be like, "Hey, that's cool." and that should be it. I mean, basically you can compare any two...things... and one person will ALWAYS like one better than the other. I mean, someone goes "Oh, I like Pearl Jam. They're the best band ever." If someone else despises Pearl Jam, they should just be like "I dunno. I like Bush alot though." Keep in mind thee are all hypothetical situations. And because it's now...1:08 IN THE MORNING, I have NO IDEA WHAT THE HELL I'M TALKING ABOUT. I'm now going to contradict my original statement by saying disagreeing opinions are a good thing. It gives us diversity and something to talk about over winter break.
I'm just saying it shouldn't be to a friggin crazy extent, like what has happened this week. Do people kind of get what I'm saying? In a way?
I'll do the quote in oh...later in the morning. When I actually have a mental capacity to think of one.

It's Wendesday! I should be fasting to save room in my belly for tommorrow...
Anywho, since today was a do-nothing day in school, my friend and I decided to draft up a little thing I'd like to call:

15 REASONS WHY BATMAN IS BETTER THAN SUPERMAN
(Not necessarliy in order)
1.Batman is disciplned in every martial art
2.Batman can utilize most weapons
3.Batman can easily hide in the dark
4.Batman plans ahead
5.Batman designs all his own weapons and vehicles
6.Batman has body armor
7.Batman has "the look"
8.Batman has a supercomputer
9.Batman has no fear
10.Batman is a detective with an extremely analytical mind
11.Batman can adapt to any situation
12.Batman's an excellent scientist
13.He's got the belt.
14.He doesn't take crap from anyone
Finally...15. He doesn't wear his underwear on the outside.

If you have more to add, Bat fans, feel free to do so.

SG, you hunch was write. But Shanny got all of it. It was indeed Blade Uno with Wesly Snipes. Here's today's:

"Why don't you go down to the pet store, buy a rat, and have it gnaw that thing off your face?"

Haha, my dad loves this movie. Tata, peeps!

   Ok, I haven't started my Bat vs. Supes list yet, but I found a really good excerpt from the affore mentioned book from the Bat's point of view during a fight. Enjoy, Bat freaks!
"The sheer impact blasted him off his feet and blasted both him and Cassandra careening into a wall. He felt the thin plasterwork crack and give beneath him as his body smashed right through it.
Batman turned his uncontolled fall into a a roll, deftly sprining to his feet. As the Stone King's gaze swivled, its eyes once more beggining to glow, Batman grabbed Cassandra's hand and pulled her through the hole into the adjacent display room...
The diving wall shattered suddenly and the Stone King strolled liesurly through the enlarge hole.
Batman didn't wait for another onslaught. Phosphor grenades had stopped this thing before...maybe they'd do the same now. Batman moved away from the desk, decoying their attacker to follow him to a safe distance from the unconscious medium...
Batman had already pulled half a dozen Batarangs from his belt. He sent the lightweight plastic disks whirling at his foe, faster than the eye could follow. Each baterang had a solid lead core, and could land with enough force to knock out a champion boxer.
The Stone King ignored them as they thudded into him ricocheting off with next to no effect(this dude's a tough one. Already took out Superman).Tiny streaks of lightning sizzled around his fingertips before uniting into one massive bolt that split the air with a shriek as it hurled at Batman.
The Dark Knight dived full-length to one side, feeling the heat of the lighting as it passed a foot above his head...
On his feet again, Batman bounded across the floor, coming to a hault beside a red fire extinguisher clipped to a wall. He snatched it from it's strapping the heel of his other hand slamming into the release button. He whirled and aimed the unwieldy cylinder, and the Stone King roared with anger as he dissapeared into a curtain of thick foam...
Holding the heavy cylinder by its end, the Dark Knight swung it into the mass of foam. There was a satisfying metallic thud as the extinguisher hit its target and ever though he couldn't see him, Batman felt the Stone King stagger under the blow.
He swung the cylinder again-once, twice, three times-striking home with unerring accuracy. On the fourth swing the Stone King stepped forward unexpectedly. A powerful backhand swipe sent the extinguisher flying from Batman's grasp. Then, before the vigilante could take evasive action, the creature followed through with a punch that almost took Batman's head off its shoulders....
Batman staggered, the small of his back catching against the top of a low display case behind him. Then the Stone King was on him, hands clawing at his adversary's throat, fingers tightening with unbeliveable pressure as they began to sqeeze.
Batman gasped for breath, sickened by the stench of decay, already feeling lightheaded, unable to breathe from lack of oxygen. In vain, his hands struck at his opponent, seeking a pressure point or a weak spot. Whatever he did, the Stone King seemed invulnerable to it.
With a sudden crack, the glass display case shattered, and Batman siezed what might be his last chance. He brought his lefs up, positioning them against the Stone King's chest. Exerting all of his remaining strength, he staightened his kness...
The Stone King howled with anger as he went sailing over Batman's head, impacting the door frame with such a force that the wood splintered."
