oh twelve, bitch

[angelgazing]

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.

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::

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.

[angelgazing.livejournal.com]

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.

[laurificus.livejournal.com]

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*

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.
