My weekend so far
Aug. 18th, 2008 12:16 amAfter not coming home for a month, I finally did and found a pleasant surprise.
OUR FAST INTERNET CONNECTION IS BACK.
I promptly celebrated by downloading the full 20th Century Boys manga. *sniffles* It's been so long, and I never finished it before, and it feels nostalgic and awesome at the same time to finally be able to read this in completion (sort of - still has no idea why there's 21st Century Boys).
Speaking of nostalgic, lately I've been surprised by finding signs of life from the Watchmen fandom because of the movie (which also means impending wank). So I've been checking out the casting and costumes and pretty much just 'ooohed' over it. It's been years since I last read it. This afternoon, out of a lark, I decided to search for the trailer with my sister.
I was completely unprepared, apparently. My sister was amused when I started making incoherent noises and gasps (Oh, it's Jan, ohhh, Silk Spectre, whut, Nite owl's ship!!! ZOMG Rorschach, &(*G VCWCYTRD%$W#^UY). By the time it showed the 'creation scene' on Mars, I started screaming and slapping my sister's shoulder. u_u It looked so pretty. With a smashing pumpkins song on accompaniment. I think I lost some brain cells. T_T I hope it's good. If you're poor like me and want a copy of the scans or something, tell me.
Gorgeous trailer here:
