couldn't do it

I disliked Thunderbolts* so much, I got up and walked out of the theater.

Work is fine. I'm determined to make night shift work better and so far so good. Unfortunately we'll be saddled with a trainee next week(ish). December really is a trash fire month to train. Everybody leaves campus and the struggle bus is how not to go insane during 8 hrs of nothing.
I currently have 146 works posted on AO3, and my goal is to get to 150 by the end of the year. To that end, I'm brushing off some of the mostly finished WIPs I've had sitting around for years. The latest is this one:
Yeah, yeah. They were roommates. (10430 words) by chase_acow
Fandom: Marvel Cinematic Universe
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Relationships: James "Bucky" Barnes/Tony Stark
Additional Tags: Fix-It for Movie: Captain America: Civil War (2016), Cap takes some lumps, but knows he deserves them, Enemies to Friends to More, Roommates, Peter memes at them, Living With a Disability, Happy Endings For Everyone
Summary:
I didn't really expect much interaction on it. I mean, a Civil War Fix-it? Surely fandom has worked through all their trauma by now. . . : ) But the kudos are good. I really loved writing Tony's dialog and letting Bucky have a softer landing to work through his issues.
Maybe one of y'all live closer to these burgers than I do.

Summary:
On this particular afternoon,Tony slammed the door to his new Malibu location and stepped back, waiting for a rising tide of panic that somehow didn’t come. He crossed his arms over his chest and glared up at the nearest sensor. “Friday?” he asked, “Did you let a known assassin sneak onto the property through the water garden?”
“Yes, boss,” she replied quickly and happily, hopefully already having taken pictures of the lily drenched man on the other side of the door. She knew he wasn’t upset. They’d both kept an ear open for rumors concerning the Winter Soldier. “He wasn’t very good at it.”
With a sigh, Tony opened the door again, raising an eyebrow when he observed that Barnes hadn’t moved a muscle since getting the door slammed in his face. “Does your mother know you’re out after curfew?” he asked, the teasing curling into the edge of his mouth. It felt rusty, but he shoved that bit of stress away so it could eat at him another night.

go watch the marvels!!!

THE MARVELS WAS THE MOST FUN I'VE HAD AT THE THEATER THIS YEAR!
These women are fantastic. I laughed so hard I cried, twice. Best use of the song 'Memory' from the musical CATS.
If you've seen Captain Marvel, you're good to go.
If you watched WandaVison and met Monica, you're better! (She's great)
I didn't watch Ms. Marvel because I can't really do teenage angst anymore, but she is delightful and I love her family.
Go give it a shot, and ignore the haters.

covid and flu shots achieved today. I'm kinda hoping I feel terrible tomorrow so I can guilt free call in sick. Though it will mean inconveniencing my coworkers, so I might just suffer at work.
I read this book, and I liked it a lot. It has absolutely no point. I don't think there's a plot? It bothered me at first, but when I gave up waiting for sense I was able to read it better.
A gothic coming-of-age tale for modern times, When We Were Animals is a dark, provocative journey into the American heartland. So the main character is suburban housewife with a son and a nice guy husband who doesn't fit in great. Every night she sneaks down to the kitchen to write a kind of memoir about her childhood growing up in a small town where teenagers spend a year during puberty running wild during the full moon. They are straight up beautiful monsters, and the language used is such poetry.
Dune -> It was on my TV and I watched whenever Oscar Isaac was there. Timothée Chalamet annoys me - seems awful full of himself.
Squid Game -> I am not cut out to watch Korean dramas, I could not handle the acting which to my comfort zone looked like incredible OVERacting. I went through the eps a little faster on the computer where I could skip 10secs over some of my worst cringes. I think it's a giant conspiracy to get people to eat more fried chicken.
Eternals ( I liked it. But maybe I liked it because of the implications instead of the text? )
I'm now watching Jessica Chastain and Oscar Isaac in Scenes From a Marriage and wow they are brutal.

sept movies

I met my quota, but I had a harder time making myself go to the movies. I swam the first couple of weeks, then we got a cold front that chilled the water too much at night and I am now a delicate hot-house flower. The job search slowed to a glacial pace since everyone was just trying to survive the first several weeks of the semester. I hope departments will start interviewing again soon if only to give me a bit of false hope.
( favorite was somehow Copshop, but Alexis Louder who was the actual main character was <i>phenominal</i> )

I'm actually a lot more looking forward to the Hawkeye series after seeing the trailer on ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
dine's post:
I didn't realize it was set during the holidays, and it actually does look like it'll be the non-wacky type of fun I prefer. Also, I'm dying to see as much of the Rogers: the Musical as they'll show me. In a fun cooincidence, I actually put on a holiday playlist today while I was doing laundry. I haven't really written anything in a week and I thought maybe I could trick myself into getting excited to write a holiday story early. We'll see.
I saw a lot of movies since August!
I hated The Green Knight, I almost got up to leave in the middle, and I honestly just should have.
The Suicide Squad was all the stupid, gory, nonsense I wanted and more. I loved it. And I love Polka-Dot Man.
Old was better at the character drama than the plot, but I enjoyed it.
I thought I'd made a terrible mistake with The Night House and I was going to have to sleep with the lights on for the rest of my life, but then the plot twisted to hinge on two life events the main character experienced that I never will, so I could enjoy her being terrorized knowing I was safe.
Free Guy was a lot better than the low bar I set. Friendship! NPCs uniting! Working class folks uniting!
- hot take - Taika Waititi is the worst part of anything he's involved in.
The Protégé was very good and would have been great if I hadn't been creeped out by the 30 year age gap between Michael Keaton (who is wonderful and very fit) and Maggie Q (who is flipping AMAZING and could do so much better).
Jungle Cruise again had a low bar and hopped right over it. I was entertained, and for a Disney flick did more to acknowledge the gay brother than I'd seen from them before. Big, pretty CGI kitty!
Candyman - the body horror hit my squicks real hard, no jump scares, and I definitely did not get the ending. It was a disjointed disappointment.

three bad movies
Jul. 13th, 2021 11:36 pm
Listen, I've never said Anthony Mackie chooses great projects . . .
( but wow were Synchronic and Woman in the Window bad movies! He's fine, he acts, there are good moments, but how in the world did these movies ever get made? )
I also watched Black Widow last night because enough people said good things about Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova and let me tell you SHE IS AMAZING! I'm looking forward to her next appearances in the MCU+ shows.
Listen, I'm not great at not clicking on reviews clearly labeled as negative of things I love, so I don't expect you'll scroll by either (and if you do, kudos to your willpower!). Here's my bias: I dislike Scarlett Johansson a lot. I got shallow reasons, I think she's a bad actress, and I'm not that impressed with her personally based on things she's said and done. I hate her. I wanted to hate the movie, and I found it pretty easy to hate it.
( Natasha Romanoff deserved better. )

you're never too old for band
Jul. 2nd, 2021 10:52 am
Happy Black Widow month to those of you celebrating! I still haven't decided if I'll go see it, but like all MCU movies, I'll be so happy when it's finally out so I won't have to watch the trailer before EVERY SINGLE OTHER MOVIE I SEE.
Let's see if this'll work. . . Here is my community band playing a piece for our patriotic concert. It's usually my least favorite except for the 1812 Overture . . . which we didn't get to play this year. -> So, how did music celebrating Russia’s pushback against a foreign power become associated with America’s Fourth of July? It’s not even about the American War of 1812.
The answer has to do with cannons, Americans’ love of Tchaikovsky and its pop culture’s embrace of the "1812 Overture."
I also couldn't convince anyone else that we should skip the national anthem before every concert. I hate playing it.
Didn't work -> here is the link on Facebook I'm the back row on the right playing the silver trombone. I think you can see like from the nose up for a few seconds.

Sep. 4th, 2020 11:30 amOh well. Stephen Colbert was live every night of both and had a bunch of good people on. Except Chris Christy who I hate and refuse to watch and I wish Colbert would cut ties. These were his MCU mash ups, though they were a little different every night.
( Person, Woman, Man, Camera, TV . . . *snap* )
I watched the first hour and a half every night of the DNC and then watched the keynote speaker the next morning. I actually tuned into a group chat of the Crooked Media folks so I got them being entertaining on one side while on the other, the DNC alternatively made me hopeful, furious, and cry. But it was really well done for the virtual live/not live videos. There were too many Republicans. I don't want or have to make nice with them and I gagged a little at how much time they took up.
I didn't watch as much of the RNC for obvious reasons, but I caught the viral moments: the scary shouty woman, Don Jr's drug addiction, the gun couple, everything Melania did, Tom Cotton, Herschel Walker, Ivanka, and the first 45 mins of the longest, most boring 45 speech. It . . . wasn't great. These people are unhinged, and I've given up on anyone who still believes these outrageous lies.
DNC roll call was so much better than the RNC. There was no comparison. Ours was cute. Theirs was embarrassing.
idk, my bff will smith?
Jan. 26th, 2020 12:06 pm
Some things I've watched:
Live action Aladdin -> ( why, oh why did I watch this? )Though it did make me want to watch the cartoons afterwards, and those sequels really aren't great, but I have basically every original song stuck in my head at some point during the day for the last several days.
Spies in Disguise -> ( it was real cute, and yeah, I ship it. + fic rec )
the_rewatch_job is starting up the first week of February, and even though I'd gotten through the first season already on my rewatch, I'm going to follow along. If you've never watched Leverage, I'll bet this is the way to do it. You can watch it free with ads on IMDB TV, you just have to sign in with them -> I watch it on the Amazon Prime app IMDB channel.
( 'What your MCU ships says about you.' But I am also just tickled with this dude's dead eye stare delivery. )

No Pleasures Here On Earth I Found which is some rough, consensual sex that is still an attempt at unhealthy coping mechanisms. I really, really liked it! It's hot, they were ROOMATES, and then everybody feels things.

The Scent of Magic
Godzilla:
Symbiosis which is a folk tale and modern documentation. It's done well and interesting. I loved the little moment between Mothra and Godzilla.

Summary:
He showed up on perfectly sunny Tuesday, his black and gray shadows smudging the natural light in the big kitchen while he sat waiting for their verdict. Steve of course was all in, though he'd lost his heart to a woman before he'd crashed his plane into the arctic. Clint wasn't even pretending not to avoid looking anywhere in Bucky's general direction, his heart safely locked in his chest. And nearly everyone else was more excited for lunch. Tony, his heart using Thor's hair as a swing, shrugged and set Bucky up with a room.

This is what I wrote for mcu_exchange, and I ended up enjoying it. My recipient didn't want the antagonistic relationship, so I decided to go with a soft slice-of-life piece during Bucky's time in Wakanda. Now I have my own Wakanda thoughts, like how much a city boy like Bucky would really know about living in the middle of nowhere alone with a herd of goats. Peace, and solitude, and not trying to kill anybody while nobody's trying to kill you is a nice vacation, but it isn't home. In my head-canon, I gotta think the Steve, Sam, Nat trio took turns visiting. Here's one of Sam's.
I'm not good at drabbles, though sometimes I can make a double or triple work. I do like the challenge of shooting for an exact word count, because sometimes it is not easy. I think it makes the writing tighter and gets rid vague or weasel words. Not all the time, but sometimes.

There was so much good character stuff in the movie. So, is it fanservice if the action actually fits both characters and plot? Cause I felt like finally, they're giving me the interactions with the characters together based on the characterization they've shown in their individual movies. We all deserved that dang it.
( So much good stuff! )

Avengers Endgame
Apr. 26th, 2019 02:03 pmI loved it. I was entertained the entire time. When it eventually reaches a streaming service there isn't a part I'd fast forward through, unlike almost half of Infinity War.
I feel good.
I feel good.
free books from around the world! I nabbed most of them just in case, but a lot of them look real good.
I have a ticket reserved for Endgame Friday morning at 10. We'll see if I manage to make it inside the building, though I'm hoping it won't be absolutely packed. (when to restroom if you need it) None of the spoilers so far are giving my any trouble, though obviously Sam and Bucky aren't the headliners so they need less worry. I wish I knew when one specific spoiler happened so I'd know I only had to suffer for so long until it happened.
I'm not even in The Magician's fandom (I tried to watch the first couple of eps last month and just nawed away from characters who irritated me), and I am so sorry for the people still hurting over their season finale, and I think it was a shitty thing, and I think TPTB who are being real smug about their creative vision are kinda shitty people at the moment. However, for my own well being, I'm trying to avoid the conversation, and I'm not really that thrilled that the argument is being applied to the MCU, because I don't see it really applies the same and I don't want it. But hey, don't like, don't read. And I hope it's helpful for someone, but I'll nope away.
