06. As someone who generally just Does Not Like Slash, allow me to submit Billy Bragg's song "Tender Comrade" as evidence for why your secret is incredibly accurate. I don't like pointless slash, but dangit, WWII is about as emotionally charged a setting as you can get, and the cast is disproportionatly male for the most part.
12. I...I think I love you. I really, truly do. And you bring up a good point. Several. But I do like the whole "well, if you took a gay character and wrote them straight because you just thought it would be hotter for them to be together fandom would beat you down" aspect. That picture makes me sad though. More than OOC, it just bugs me that every good, cool friendship, like the Trio of TOS, gets slashed like this. Ug.
17. AH DON'T TEMPT ME!!!
27. A tad judgemental, don't you think? Just because someone likes Doctor/Rose doesn't mean they don't know and love their roots as well. It's not just about an old guy. It's about an old guy, a space-hobo, a fop, a mad-eyed nut, a pretty-boy, a garishly dressed maniac, a conniving Scotsman, another pretty-boy, a big-eared jerk, and a skinny Scotsman and a teen pop star. Do you do the same if they have cheesy Doctor/Jamie icons or Doctor/Romana or any other pairing here? Or is it just the glut of Doctor/Rose makes you angry every time you see it?
Sorry. I'm feeling a tad ornery today. And I am just tired of the "you like Doctor/Rose and have icons. You must be a noob who doesn't like the old stuffs!"
41. Aside from everything else wrong with those, why does Aladin have such womanly hips?
43. Y'know what? I loved that movie. All of them. I'll grant that there are a lot of places that AWE could've been better (giant Calypso could've gone so many ways that didn't have to be giant...), and I know it was cheesy and a little heavy-handed with "Pirates are freedom and freedom is good!" when the only actual pirate-y thing you see them doing is raiding Port Royale in the first movie and all... but... I still love that scene and thought it was darn movie. If you take the movie for what it is, it's fantastic.
45. To be fair, Howl's Moving Castle is based on a book. And the book has a similar plot (up to about half-way through). But here's the thing. Most fantast/sci-fi books/movies/comics... don't make sense. It's not just anime. (Spiderman gets bitten by a spider and gets powers. Superman's an alien from Kansas, etc.) I personally love Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere, because his fantasy world makes perfect sense so long as you don't try and force it to. I don't know how else to explain it, but honestly, Howl's Moving Castle and Spirited Away made absolute perfect sense to me. I know they're whimsical and technically don't...but they do. Yes? No? Maybe? Lobster?
46. Boring secret is not boring! Father Ted is absolutely hi-larious! I'm not sure what a fandom would add (I personally like enjoying my FT without slash, thank you. Or cocaine. I mean...raisins.)
53. Ugh. Good reason to hate a movie. Honestly, even if you don't want to create a whole freaking language (and who doesn't?!), it's not all that hard to at least come up with a few basic words, a to-be verb and a simple conjugation system. Man, I'd jump for joy to get the job of "official language-maker-upper" of a movie.
61. Aw. That's sweet.
NotSecret1: YESSSSS!!!! Well, not just with Hermione. That's one of the reasons, ages back, that I just stopped drawing LotR. I got tired of hearing that it didn't look like Elijah Wood, Orlando Bloom, or Billy Boyd.
And by 27, I meant 28.
Re: And by 27, I meant 28.
That has to be one of the greatest summaries of Doctor Who I ever saw. You made me giggle like a maniac.
