It's Not Lazy if it's Hilarious
2003-04-23 15:28:14
Well, I'll try to sum up everything.
Yesterday night, I managed to see the english dub of the first episode of Saiyuki. Man! It was great! They matched Goku and Gojo(The Priest dude. I can't remember if that's his name or not..)'s voices perfectly! They may have even done a better job at Goku's voice then the original... It sure is funnier than I remember!
The other characters' voices, though, could have been better, but they were good enough, so I'm not complaining. The english dub looks promising ^-^ I may by the box set when it comes out.
I am having a hard time with "Wake Me Up Inside"(I've named the AMV this..) I've decided I'm never going to do an AMV to a really popular song again. EVER. (But I'm going to continue doing this one)
I cleaned out the pond today, put in the new pump, fake plants, and then discovered we don't know where or how to plug it in from outside(The pump).
I'm probably either never going to finish Wake Me Up Inside, or it'll just take a REALLY long time. I'm handing out betas for everyone to scrutinize because I fear my AMV looks awkward. my AIM is brigrelq
my MSN is Q_mun@hotmail.com I'd prefer you contact me on MSN IM.
I need a new "Bring Me to Life' file. The one I have is corrupt. It sounds horrible and staticy. If anyone has a good file, please send it to me. For now I'll just be working with the crappy one until I get a better one, or if I have to, buy the CD...
I have 20 MB of Pictures for this AMV. That should say something.
I still haven't quite figured out how what happened in GIN-ROH actually happened....
I'm going to watch X[four] today, hopefully.
Well, I think I summed that all up....
OH!
Free AMV Idea:
Use "Bring Me to Life" for the following things:
Ayashi no Ceres
The Last Unicorn
Ayashi no Ceres for a profile on Ceres and Aya, a profile on the Unicorn, and the Unicorn as a human(That'd fit better, in my opinion) You could also use Aki and his transformation, or Toya and his memory for the Ceres AMV.
If you take one of these ideas, PLEASE contact me so I don't do them, or hand them out to friends.

... Stupid ending. I won't give it away, but I thought it was horrible compared to CLAMP's other stuff.
Anyway, I was looking on my HArd drive one day, and noticed that i had like 1/8 of the WISH AMV downloaded, and the start of another download, but not enough to actually view it. So I decided to download the rest last night... My computer's still running right now.... I hope it finishes, I liked the song ^-^ And I want to see what Koryuu looks like in live animation. I hope they wear the same clothes. That'd be cool. If I like what I see, I may make an AMV out of those two AMVs... Yeah, I know that sounds like stealing, but since there was never really an anime made, and only those two AMVs, there's like nowhere else to get the footage >.>
Now, onto NEWTYPE USA's April mag. The centerfold of the men of Gensomaden Saiyuki SUCKED! It looked like a REALLY bad fanart. I mean, there were so many things wrong with that picture. None of them had their Chaos Limiters on, and since they were still all human in the picture, you know that would NEVER HAPPEN. And then, the slanty eye thing was bad, the whole thing looked like an american comic artist drew it, and the hands and fingers were pretty much just circles with dots. >.>
Then, you have the dude with the red hair winking. He'd never wink. Think about that.. So, the centerfold was a true disappointment. I'm going to watch the free Saiyuki DVD, to see how they dubbed it. I hope it does the series justice, and makes up for that awful centerfold. -.o
As for the Evanesce(sp.) AMV that I'm making, all I have to do is get home, make the avs file, and make it. I can't wait. I have some new special effects(my own, for once) that I want to try out in MSPaint. Koop helped me out on a question I had with it, and from him answering that one question, I have made a full book of ideas for special effects I want to try out. Yes. The AMV will be flashy. My god, it will be flashy. I'm going to stay away from actual flashes, though, since my last expierence with that was the most horrid, ever. >.> ("Tainted Love") I really don't like any solid color flashes. I may do a flash of a certain important frame from the series, though. Or a picture. Ahh, yes. Pictures. That's what I need...
See, the Series I'm using is more like an OVA, or maybe it is considered one... Well, it has only about 4 episodes... So it's obvious I need more footage. So, I'm going to search the net for lots of pictures. Hopefully I won't get fanart, but actual pictures.. I know there's a lot on the DVD I have. I have to rip that.. I couldn't find what chapter it's on, yesterday. Then I'm going to go to do a Google image search for other things that weren't on the DVD... Hopefully I won't get a lot of screencaps, since I already have those.. In motion.. lol.
Anyway, moving on...
Sorry for the incredibly long entry. I have an hour and 45 minutes to spend. I WILL spend it all on the computer, I swear, I want as much time with the splendid machines as I can get. two hours a day isn't enough! So anyway... Back to talking...
X[Four]. I might end up watching that today. Who knows. -.0
If my timelimit is enforced, I probably will. If not, I won't. Oh, descisions, descisions. Oh! I just remembered! These computers don't have firewalls like the other ones at school. I can RP in a chat room!!!

"Attention everyone. Mass media has been cancelled due to a spider bite."
2003-04-22 13:15:56
Yeah, Mass Media has been can cancelled because my teacher's a wuss. lol. Well, I really wouldn't know, because the bite could have been poisionous, but I'm not sure. Anyway, I think he's a wuss. Mr. Henson is like that. I didn't go to mass media yesterday either, because I had an orthodontist appointment at the time. So right now, I have no idea what my current status is on the Kendo Commercial. I hope Dan was there yesterday and worked on it. Even finished it for that matter.. But finishing would have been surreal...
Anyway, my computer time limit of 2 hours yesterday got the best of me, and I watched GIN-ROH. Holy shit. That has to be THE best movie I've ever seen. Sad, yes. But the best EVAR. And I'm queer, so if I like something everyone else likes, it's odd for me. For example, I don't like evangelion, or any of Miyazaki's works. I don't have anything against Miyazaki. But until he comes up with something that I find original, I don't like his work. I mean, have you ever noticed how the main characters in all his movies look the same? I mean, there's a girl, and a boy. And they generally look the same throughout ALL of his works. And then, Grave of the Fireflies. EVeryone was so sadenned by that movie. I wasn't. But then, I wasn't sad during 9/11, either....
So GIN-ROH was something good, because it was sad, and actually made me teary eyed. Nothing went past my eyesocket, though. So, that's an accomplishment for the movie. I only have one thing to complain about it. Yes, I'm a complianer. I really shouldn't be complaining about it, since it's not that big. But I just think the small flaw should be noticed.
In one scene, I think it was when they were having the training "mission", Or maybe it was near the end when the main guy went after the girl(I'm trying not to give away spoilers.. ><;; ) His night vision goggles were off. He put on the suit, and they were off. He then picked up his gun, and started walking off.(Come to think of it, I really think it WAS in the end).
Then, when he passed a wall, his nightvision was suddenly on. As I said, not somehting to complain about because it was so small, but I'm a complainer. >.>
Anyhow, I ripped the DVD I was supposed to, yesterday, and am also downloading the "WISH" AMVs that CLAMP made from the manga off WinMX. I had read the whole manga, and thought the ending sucked. I mean, what a really... (To be continued)

Everytime I said the song's title was "Wake me Up Inside" I really meant "Bring me to Life."
