angelgazing: (danny/rusty)

oh twelve, bitch

So. Due to a stroke of genius on my part, I decided that I should stop reading O12 fic until after I've seen the movie. Especially since I had the movie in my possession and just didn't want to stop reading the fic to watch it. It's like a thing.



1. I do not like Julia Roberts. Even through the greatness of her playing Tess playing Julia Roberts. She really, really does play the role all wrong. She's too fucking serious for these movies.

2. I totally should've left the gray-hair gag in that long ass Rusty/Danny fic I just wrote. There are like two people who know what I'm talking about, but still. I mean, dude. ::facepalm:: It was so there. With the whole "Rusty isn't fifty. Does he look fifty? Do I look fifty? Do I look fifty to you? How old would you think I was? FORTY-EIGHT?! Do I look fifty?" ::giggles:: And. Yeah. That amused me. I will not go back and rewrite that scene as an add-on to anything though, because goddamn it that fic was 22,000 words.

3. Rusty is in love with Danny. Danny knows this. Danny dislikes Rusty's girl. Rusty dislikes his. "Wash she worth it?" "Was Tess?" heh. No, I'm not just hearing what I want to hear. Really.

4. There should be Brad/George RPS I am vaguely in love with Brad Pitt's mouth. And I don't like RPS. Really. ::is shifty::

5. "Huh" as a response to a dramatic situation never stops being funny. I still giggle when Mal does it, I suspect I'll still giggle when Rusty does after a couple more viewings.

6. There should be more movies with Brad Pitt in a bathrobe and George Clooney in a sort of undone tux where they're sitting on the couch in a hotel room and drinking a lot. Especially since you have to wonder how it came about that Rusty got to be undressed.

7. I may have something of a baby crush on Linus Matt Damon. Shut up. Seriously. I mean the guy went from movie with the fight where he gets the better of a guy who has a knife with an ink pen for fucks sake, which is hotness enough, to the shy, sort of bumbling kind of cute kid in the heist movie of slashiness. The boy is clearly love.

8. Canon is so easy for me to ignore/wank away it's scary. Oh, yes, watch me reason all this away. Give me a few more viewings and I'll be ranting about this bitchtastic bunny where the whole thing with Isabel is just to get back at her for something or another.

9. Rusty is a terrible thief without Danny. Look at how much he almost got caught.

10. Love will not cure boredom. So don't even try.



And. Er. Spoilers there if you haven't seen it and care to.

**blinks** Brad/George RPS? Damn! That could wurk! And normally,
I too hate RPS. **Hides my printouts of Daniel Radcliffe/Various
HP male cast members RPS**

In any case, thank you for helping me get that rabid HP/Discworld
plot bunny(With the Granny Weatherwax/Mad-eye Moody pairing) out
of my head.

Oh Damn. It's back.

I know not of Discworld, but kindly keep your bunnies on your side of the fence. I have plenty of my own. Plus like half a dozen characters named Danny (alright so it's like three, but whatever) have taken over my brain and wish to make me write all sorts of cracked out crossovers. ::sulks:: I don't need any more bunnies. I need some bunny repelant. I wonder if they sell that at Satan's five and dime Wal-Mart...

Daily show RPS?!?!?!?!Tempt me not with your

Oh, crap!! 2 late!! Oh my kingdom

Oh prey tell, just *how* do I keep my

a LOT cuter and more amusing...)

I don't know how you do that. Laser gun? Fires? Death glares?

See: Inform On Your Neighbor

Has anyone told you lately that you are evil?
Just as long as you know...

I'm not looking for it... I do not need that kind of temptation.

Don't blame you...(though it does sound
kind of hot...)

I don't know how you do that. Laser gun? Fires? Death glares?

I know one thing that doesn't work, cats!

Has anyone told you lately that you are evil?

Yes, actually. I don't get it, personally, but, whatever. ::giggles:: Something about me taunting characters in their head, I think. What's your reasoning?

Cat's scare me. I think it has something to do with my mother's seeming to wish me ill. They (all 49574 of them) have this nasty habit of scratching me whenever I go outside of her house. Then they get in the path when I'm walking Rocky (doggie. v. cute) and just DARE him to chase them and he'd get torn to ribbons by their evil claws or something. ::shudders::

I'm pretty anti-RPF, personally, but there was this article a few months back, about Clooney lending Pitt his villa (the one they all stayed in while filming in Italy, apparently) while Pitt was dealing with the whole split from Jennifer Aniston/hooking up with Angelina Jolie thing, and Pitt was all, "George has been so supportive" and then Clooney went for back surgery, and I was like, the fanfic basically writes itself. So that's the only time I've ever been tempted, but then I remembered actors are boring, and went back to the characters.

1. I do not like Julia Roberts. Even through the greatness of her playing Tess playing Julia Roberts. She really, really does play the role all wrong. She's too fucking serious for these movies.

Yes. Exactly. On a meta-level, it was hilarious, but god, she was shrill.

I am vaguely in love with Brad Pitt's mouth

And his jaw. His jaw is... guh...

As for Isabel, I always figure Danny and Rusty are too professional for her, and she ends up with the Night Fox. Actually, I think Isabel/Night Fox is my het OTP for O12. She's awfully sparkly whenever she talks about him, did you notice?

[identity profile] angelgazing.livejournal.com 2005-06-04 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
Personally, I'm fond of the story were Brad Pitt got Clooney back for a practical joke by sending out a memo saying that he (Clooney) was only to be called by Danny or Mr. Ocean. ::giggles:: Then again, I'm easily amused.

But yes. Yes, actors are boring. I mean, also, I have issues with wanting to get characters right and I can't if it's actors and I'm not making much sense. So, uh, never mind.

Oh, yes his jaw. He has a very nice jaw. And nice hands. I like boys with nice hands...

::snorts:: I think I actually knew your thing about Isabel/Night Fox, because that's all I could think of when she was talking about him was "so she leaves Rusty for him?" and that's probably why I should've watch the movie and then read the fic, but pft. Forget that.

It does make canon a very tricky proposition, yes.

I'm actually surprised no one's written Rusty/Topher Grace.

Oh, yes his jaw. He has a very nice jaw. And nice hands. I like boys with nice hands...

Oh, yes he does. I made an icon of the scene where he's in Isabel's apt and his finger's in his mouth and... why did I not upload this icon?

*flails*

Ah, here it is...
Image

I need to put that in rotation, stat. (which now makes me want to watch old ER reruns with Doug and Carol. Sigh.)

all I could think of when she was talking about him was "so she leaves Rusty for him?"

Hee!

I have obviously been a bad influence on you.

...

Score!

[identity profile] angelgazing.livejournal.com 2005-06-17 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
Actually I'm surprised I haven't written Rusty/Topher Grace. The lack of it makes me want it more. I refuse to go there, yes, but still.

OMG ICON! With the finger in the mouth and the guh. GUH. ::clears throat:: I mean, that's very good. lol

You're a horrible influence. It's terrible. Tragic. A lot of other bad things... :p

4. There should be Brad/George RPS

I will not be drawn into this. I absolutely will not, for I have willpower. And yet... Um, the thing is, there kinda should be. And I don't read RPS ever, and mostly I don't get the motivation behind it, but dear God they are both very hot.

And there was this thing the other day where apparently George is setting up a bar and Brad's doing the interior design. I did fan girl squeeing for about 10 minutes, and completely bemused all other people in the room with me, which is beside the point, because, *really*, hot men and bars!

[identity profile] angelgazing.livejournal.com 2005-06-12 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
More people should be drawn into this. Come on, you know you wanna. Think of the pretty. Just think of it.

Dude, and seriously? Brad Pitt is such a woman. I mean, that's wrong of me to say, I'm sure. But really. :p

Maybe the RPS for them isn't out there because it's too obvious. Like how canon slash ships don't get half the fic as non-canon ones. lol

[identity profile] laurificus.livejournal.com 2005-06-12 01:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm so not listening. I cannot be tempted by the pretty men and their hotness. I don't care how incredibly sexy they would be together, and how they could be alone in that villa with the sun and the sea and the nakedness, and um the nakedness, and the sex... What was my point, here really?

Maybe the RPS for them isn't out there because it's too obvious.

Well, it's certainly obvious. However, I haven't looked- yet - so I could not say if there isn't a lot. *Eyes Google speculatively and guiltily*

And, yes, Brad is the woman in that relationship. Sorry, Brad, but I can't lie. *G*

[identity profile] angelgazing.livejournal.com 2005-06-13 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
Google? Interesting. I... haven't gotten up the nerve to look, really. I figure that if I find it then it will be bad and I will be filled with woe and the urge to write it because I'm just that into pain. :p

Brad is totally the woman. It's not our fault he's all into decorating and this color over that one and bah. No wonder it didn't work out with his wife. ;) Sadly, I think if the Angelina rumors are true, then he's probably the woman in that relationship too. Heh. Ok, now I'm going to hell. ::slinks off::

[identity profile] laurificus.livejournal.com 2005-06-13 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, if many other rumours are true, we're all going to hell anyway for writing teh gay sex, so at least there'll be a whole lot of us there.*G*

And, yeah, I didn't look either, in the end because I'll never be able to get past the fact that they're actually real people. I think I might feel a little like I was violating them, to be honest.

[identity profile] angelgazing.livejournal.com 2005-06-13 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
See, I'm maybe a little bit weird in that. I don't think of them so much as real people. :X Cause no one that would be writing the fic would know them. So pretty much it's just like every other fic, except ten times easier to get out of character.

::shrugs:: It's still a little off putting, yes, but not like I'd expect it to be.

[identity profile] laurificus.livejournal.com 2005-06-14 03:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know. Maybe if I actually started writing it, I would actually discover that it totally wasn't a big deal, but, without doing that, I still have it in my head that it would be. And, yeah, like you say, I don't really think I would be particularly good at writing real people I know nothing about in character, because it's totally different from writing characters in a book or TV show, where there are generally boundaries to work within.

Plus, the obvious hotness of Brad and George aside, very few people pinged my completely straight radar in quite the way that George Clooney did, and I'm not particularly adversed to keeping it that way. He is kinda hot all on his own. *G*

[identity profile] angelgazing.livejournal.com 2005-06-14 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
hee. oh, dear, the straightness thing. It's funny, maybe, but I've never really let that get in my way. There are a handful of people I absolutely cannot, will not slash and... George Clooney isn't one of them. ;) Usually I ignore the straightness, or work around it, or make it work for me. ::shrugs:: I'm an odd girl, yes, but that's just the way that it is.
