Interesting day.

SON OF A BITCH!
Time to turn it back up...
Damn it!

God, please give me the diligence and the perseverance I need.

Batman movie ramblings (cont)

GOD THESE SUCK! Batman is supposed to be an urban legend. Not some moron who dresses in rubber armor! WHO THE HELL would want to ASSERT that he exists, wearin' shit like that? Joel Schumacher, you're a fag. A neon color lovin' fag. Burton, you're a great gothic filmmaker, but you didn't really understand what Batman is supposed to be. Christopher Nolan, I'd never heard of you until Batman Begins. I know that you directed other disturbing movies, but THANK YOU for the new beginning! Stay with it!

Batman Motion Picture Anthology 1989 - 1997

So I bought this collection online for a great deal... etc etc.
And after watching the first two movies, I couldn't help but think "This really isn't what Batman is supposed to be." Batman isn't supposed to kill, but he clearly says to the Joker: "I'm going to kill you." Eh! And then, if you look over other parts in the first movie, he killed quite a few people. Blew up the chemical plant where the Joker's gang was stationed, leg grabbed the big guy in the church belfry and threw him down the stairway, not to mention while piloting the Batwing, attempting to blow the Joker up with machine gun fire and missiles!. Yikes! Then in Batman Returns, he killed the big fat man using a bomb, set one of the devils on fire, and intentionally crashing the Batboat into the Penguin's duck vehicle thing. How would Batman know that he wouldn't kill the Penguin?

They're just movies, sure.

But shit, I can nitpick. I think Michael Keaton's overall look as Batman was quite cool, but his head was ENORMOUS. And closeups on the face revealed just how ridiculous he really looked. Val Kilmer's look was pretty good, but the nipples and overly-detailed musculature really kinda put me off. George Clooney's Batman... well let's just say that Batman should NEVER be SHORTER than Robin. Also suffered from nipple syndrome.

Whatever. I think the first two Batman movies were very stylish, very goth, very creepy. The first is still the best. But damn, Returns was creepy to me, and really disgusting. Keaton, Pfeiffer, De Vito... they all did great jobs with the acting. Christopher Walken was just weird. His delivery kinda sucked on a lot of his lines. The hair and his nasty eyebrows, not to mention those cold eyes... *shiver* very disturbing. The other two movies, just don't really do so well.

Keaton's Batman was cool because he was quiet, but when he talked, you listened.
Kilmer's Batman looked ok. Damn nipples. He talked too much.
Clooney's Batman was Adam West with rubber armor and a bobblehead.
Robin is gay.
Batgirl is my cousin Lori with her hair dyed blonde.
Two Face needed better makeup; prunes would've looked better plastered to his face.
Riddle me this: When is the Riddler a moronic buffoon? Answer at the bottom.
Poison Ivy should drink her own poison.
Freeze needs to FREEZE his acting career, oh wait, he's the guvnah!




Answer: When he's Jim Carrey.

Yep...

... I'm thinking I'm looking forward to my 4th class starting... If only to cut down on work...

You need love.
You are a pretty normal, well-rounded person
that just craves that fairy tale love where you
will be swept off your feet and live happily
ever after. Chances are that you fantasize or
dream about it so much that you either see all
the guys/girls as unromantic or you tell
yourself that anyone could be your soulmate.
You long to have someone by your side and you
want to give back on the romance part too, not
just give.

This is right.


Your element is Fire. Like fire, you have a hot
temper and you can be warm and loving as well
and angry and wild. It all really comes down to
what you are feeling. You have a lot of close
friends who you are very protective over, and
with your temper probably some enemies too. You
are not Miss/Mr Popular in school since you are
your own person and don't want to be forced
into behaving this or that way. You are the
untamed wild horse, the kind that everyone
wants to catch. But you don't want to be tied
down for the moment and just keep going with
your little crushes. Your will is strong and if
you set your mind to do something, you will
most likely succeed. But beware, your friends
may not always accept your mood-swinging
behaviour. Even if you don't mean to be mean,
they can still feel hurt. You just need to
start thinking some things through before you
do them, and not always jump in with so much
courage. One day you may be hurt because of
that, but then again, your element isn't fire
if you start to analyse situations before you
act. After all, your nature is to shoot first
and ask the questions later. Rate and message!

Ok, I'll buy that...


Your wise quote is: "Be kind to unkind people,
they probably need it the most" by
Ashleigh Brilliant.
You try to look beyond apperance, try to give
people second chances and are probably very
kind. Understanding is your biggest personality
trait, and thoose you can see through should be
grateful. If they aren't already. You detest
narrow minded people, because they can't see
what's really there. Facades is not your thing
and you strive to always be who you really are.


What wise quote fits you? [pics]

I think this is true...


Life is great for you. You have power, you yearn
for more and can't live without it. You have a
need to boss everyone around you for your
personal pleasures yet you don't seem entirely
satisfied. Perhaps you never will. You need to
realise your still only human
and there are people as good as you. But why, when
you can have your own
little kingdom of slaves?

Your soul is caring.
Other people are your concern, even if you
don't know them. If you see a person trip you
worry is he is okay. You put your loved ones
first and you're very mature. When someones
sick you're nurturing and always try to help
family and friends when failure strikes them.
You can be called the motherly one, if you are
in a group of people, which doesn't have to be
bad. Love is something that's already in you
and you have a lot to give whether you believe
it or not. Your friends probably love you very
much and come to when they need help since
you're reliable. People can feel secure with
you and generally like you.

True.


You are a Samurai.
You are full of honour and value respect. You
are not really the stereotypical hero, but you
do fight for good. Just in your own way. For
you, it is most certainly okay to kill an evil
person, if it is for justice and peace. You
also don't belive in mourning all the time and
think that once you've hit a bad stage in life
you just have to get up again. It's pointless
to concentrate on emotional pain and better to
just get on with everything. You also are a
down to earth type of person and think before
you act. Impulsive people may annoy you
somewhat.

Likewise Mr Smith...

The typical "it's been a while" post...

"So it's been a while. Haven't had much to say lately."



















Ok. Done that. Lately I've been apathetic about a lot of things. Couldn't help it. I think the video games hit me with a one-two-three-four punch. I do know that it is indeed unhealthy, but when Ninja Gaiden Black, X-Men Legends II, Ultimate Spider-Man, and Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks... all hit you, and you've actually been waiting a few months for some new games... it's not like a coupla shots, it's a whole f'n bottle.

Back on apathy, haven't trained, haven't really studied, or done homework, or been really happy lately. I'm just here. I don't know if I've gone numb on the whole UT thing (HELL NO I'M NOT! God please grace me!), or just kinda goin' through a lazy stage, but I'm gettin' antsy with my apathy. Well that's an oxymoron ain't it? If it's not, please grace me with the correct term, as I'm not about to go look it up.

I have a paper that I could turn in tomorrow for 5 bonus points, but I'm only half done. I could finish it tonight. I have an Econ test tomorrow, easy as pie. And I have a math review that I should do by tomorrow. Bloody f'n wonderful. Hell, my Chem class hasn't even started, and that's going to be a joy when it does.

Time to get up off my ass and do what I need to do...

I also NEED to get that TAMU application done like tomorrow.

It's not who I am underneath but what I *do* that defines me.

San Sho Ryu (8:31:41 PM): man I hate work
San Sho Ryu (8:31:47 PM): she kicked my ass today
San Sho Ryu (8:31:51 PM): I made a million sandwiches

I'm not out of the fight yet...

XD
Gimme strength my people!

Father God, I pray that I make it.
Please let me fly.
I pray for Your guidance and support in everything that I do.
And I praise You for everything You have given me.
You gave me many a great gift.
Please let me give my gifts back to You.
Please bless and protect those in my family.
And bless my truest friends.
And please, keep an eye on the survivors of hurricane Katrina.
In Your name I pray...
And from Who I draw my strength...
Amen.

God, send me an angel...

Our Father who art in Heaven

Hallowed be Thy name

Thy kingdom come

Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven

Give us this day our daily bread

And forgive us our trespasses

As we forgive those who trespassed against us

And lead us not into temptation

But deliver us from evil

For Thine is the Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory

For ever and ever

Amen.

It is so very true that people only ask for God's help when they're at the end of their respective ropes. But I will do differently...

God, thank You for helping me accomplish all that I have in the last few years. It's been a real turnaround.

God, please forgive me for the sins that I've committed. They are too numerous to even begin to count.

God, I'm doing pretty well now, though I am feeling empty still. I believe in everything with You behind me. I'm nowhere near the end of my rope, but please, send me a light.

If you believe and haven't talked to the Big Guy in a while, do so... now.

I paid my credit card off.
A nice big 3200 if I need it.
Which I won't for a while.

I still believe in the crazy things...

So pop and I had a really cool moment a few days ago. I had heard Dan Fogelberg's Leader of the Band at work and was reminded of both that song and Kenny Loggins's Danny's Song. I love both of those songs, so I downloaded them that night.

I started playing Leader of the Band, and Pop was surprised...

"Great song..."
"Oh yeah? I love this song!"
"Wow... I'm... getting chills just listening."
"Yeah Pop, every time I hear this song, it reminds me of you."
"Really?"
"Yeah."

Pop hums with the song...

"This is the part that reminds me of you, Pop... 'And Poppa, I don't think I said I loved you near enough'..."

Leader of the Bands ends.

Danny's Song begins...

"Oh man. This was my favorite song in college."
" 'Even though, we ain't got money, I'm so in love with you honey, and everything will bring a chain of looooove. And in the morning when I rise, y'bring a tear o' joy to my eyes and tell me... everything's gon' be all right'..."
"Do you know all the words, Nick?"
"Almost."

Pop leaves.
"Wow, this all takes me back."
"Y'know Pop, I think you did it to me. Because I love these songs too."
