Cruise Control for Cool, AWAY

What is this week already aaaaah

So yesterday I went with

yamikonumber7 and her former roomie to California Adventure/Disneyland, and it was awesome despite crowds and an overcast day. I got peer-pressured onto the Tower of Terror again, but I managed to survive. The rosemary cornbread at House of Blues will never not be totally delicious. We lol'd a lot at various jokes throughout the day. What was significantly less awesome was the drive home. The 5 screwed us over again, thanks. 8| I got back considerably late and had some upsetting nightmares and slept way too late this morning. I don't remember all of the nightmares, I just remember there being something about a horrible infection, and I was trying to get this injured hawk to fly but it couldn't, so I was scrambling over this sandy cliff in order to catch it before it fell. And my brother was telling me not to touch it because it was infected, but I wasn't listening to him. D: Yuck nightmares.

Before I get into the rest, though, I HAVE A BIRTHDAY PRESENT FOR YOU, KIA. And heeeere it is:

Agent J, as a dragon, because EBA is awesome and dragons are awesome. Therefore, awesome + awesome = SUPER AWESOME. Hope you like it; happy birthday! \o/

AAAAAAND NOW WE DO HAVE A RELEASE DATE FOR BBS:
SEPTEMBER 7th

SQUARE

WHAT

WHY DO YOU HATE US

ALSO SO APPARENTLY THAT BBS ENGLISH LANGUAGE TRAILER THAT MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE BEEN REAL IS ACTUALLY TRULY REAL:

SOMEONE CONFIRM FOR ME THAT THAT IS ACTUALLY LEONARD NIMOY, BECAUSE
HOLY CRAP LEONARD NIMOY

EDIT: ALSO MAYBE MARK HAMILL MAY BE DOING A VOICE
WHAT IS THIS MADNESS

Also what are Terra and Aqua's voices this trailer is sorely lacking and the game won't be out UNTIL SEPTEMBER

SQUARE YOU ARE FULL OF HORRIBLENESS why do you do this to us

THIS LONG WAIT BETTER BE BECAUSE YOU REALLY ARE PUTTING THE JUNGLE BOOK IN THE GAME

*breeeeeathes*

I have this unbearably strong urge to try making a Let's Play for Okami, and it's not going away

I also have a sudden urge to write up/draw up a story about the Enchanted Tiki Room birds a la what Disney did with POTC

What is wrong with me why can't I focus on the stuff I should be working on

Drawing: Gift arts, storyboards on Scratch assuming I get to them

Writing: Close to finishing chapter ten

I guess it's time to switch to the countdown counter, huh? IN THAT CASE... Days until BBS release: 112 (THAT IS NOT A SMALL NUMBER. THAT IS A BIG NUMBER. D8)

Tags: birth by sleep, birthday, disneyland, okami

Current Mood:

crazy

Current Music: Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody

Now that I think about it, that really does sound like Leonard Nimoy. :|a

Yeah, that's the part that has me going ARRRRGH. And the fact that they won't say Aqua or Terra's voices yet!

It's going to be STAR WARS VS STAR TREK in BBS. 8D

Just ARRRRGH, I was ready for a late July release! I suppose this is only a little over a month after that, but still, it's a pain!

I sort of had to freak out on principle, so glad it was at least amusing. XD

Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyy... but, but I don't want to associate the original Spock with Bald!evil Xehanort. :(

I THINK IT IS

Dude I did not think they could get more epic than Christopher Lee, BUT APPARENTLY THEY CAN

okroginator.livejournal.com on May 17th, 2010 09:12 pm (UTC)

Except then they dropped Christopher Lee (whom I love, and who plays a character I love) for some. idk. some guy.

BUT LEONARD NIMOY MAKES IT ALL BETTER 8'D

lynxgriffin.livejournal.com on May 17th, 2010 09:51 pm (UTC)

I heard they might've gotten Christopher Lee back, actually? I hope so anyway; he was awesome.

YES, YES IT DOES

YAAAAAAAAAY I HAS A DRAGON THANK YOU 8D

I honestly have no idea why they think closing the 5 at 11:30 PM is a good plan when Disneyland, which feeds almost directly onto the 5, closes at midnight. Things That Could Be Fixed If People Communicated #4491.

Do the birds! Do the birds

And yaaaay Leonard Nimoy 8D _\\//

NO PROB HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Me neither. Maybe they're still doing construction or something, but it's horribly annoying, and a bit dangerous with merging 4-5 lanes onto one off-ramp. 8|

...I GUESS I WILL SOMEHOW

...lol your emoticon. XD If Xehanort ever does that move, intentionally or not, I will lol so hard forever

rasenth.livejournal.com on May 18th, 2010 06:02 am (UTC)

OUCH. September? D:!!! I'm so glad I got the Japanese versi- *SHOT*

Who's Leonard Nimoy and Mark Hamill? XD <-- too lazy to Google

THEY HAD JUNGLE BOOK IN THE GAME!?!??!?! ... WAIT, WHAT??? I never heard of this before! o___o;;;; I heard that they were about to put in the Pinnochio world in KHDays though!

(Reply) (Thread) (Link)

lynxgriffin.livejournal.com on May 18th, 2010 06:19 am (UTC)

September is so faaaar. 8( (And I cannot get the Japanese version, sob)

...sdjakdsjalkda DUDE
Leonard Nimoy = Mr. Spock! OLDSCHOOL Spock, from the original Star Trek. Has done several other roles and voices.
Mark Hamill = Luke Skywalker! Also known well as the Joker from Batman: The Animated Series.

Maybe they were thinking of it and then scrapped it; what's shown is a lot of unfinished modeling, and no characters. Like someone hacked into some discarded coding. o_O

rasenth.livejournal.com on May 18th, 2010 06:53 am (UTC)

Maaan, if I had the time I would love to just translate for people over their shoulder. ;o; I remember the pain of waiting for the English version of KH2!!

SPOCK???? AND JOKER!?!??!?!?
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!??
I gotta tell this to my roommate who loves Star Trek. XD

I'm surprised that the information still remained inside the game. O_o;;;

(Reply) (Parent) (Thread) (Link)

lynxgriffin.livejournal.com on May 18th, 2010 04:38 pm (UTC)

That would be helpful. But I also like most of their English voices, so it's nice to hear those, too. XD

INORITE. XD It's like GEEKGASM CAST EXTREME.

Me too, I figured that sort of extra coding would be taken out, but I guess not. :Oa

(Reply) (Parent) (Thread) (Link)

rasenth.livejournal.com on May 18th, 2010 07:43 pm (UTC)

Omggg I am so stoked to listen to the English voices, you wouldn't BELIEVE. XD I think it's because I grew up with Kingdom Hearts in English~ <3

All they need is some random popular celebrity like Justin Bieber and they're set. XD!!!!!!

Maybe the programmers/artists/modellers begged them to leave it in because it took them forever to make. >.>;;;

lynxgriffin.livejournal.com on May 19th, 2010 02:51 am (UTC)

Yeah, you really can't deny that their English voices rawk out loud. Maybe it's because I've always heard those the most, but they're still good, and I think the game was written to be in English, if that makes sense.

Maybe, I dunno. Maybe they purposefully leave in that sort of code for hackers to play around in. XDa

SPOCK.

AND LUKE SKYWALKER.

IN. THE. SAME. GAME.

WHAT IS THIS I DON'T EVEN :O :O :O

awesome\O/

I just hope that what < lj user="okroginator"> said isn't true(about them dropping Christopher Lee DNW), I mean, Nimoy and Lee and Hamill, in the same game?? That's gonne create like, the biggest nerdgasm ever :O :O and yyyyyyyy on wanting to know Terra's and Aqua's voice actors, dammit SE/Disney why u do this to uuuuusssss OTL

also, I wonder who's gonna make bitty-Kairi's, Sora's and Riku's voices...lol, maybe they'll get like Miley Cyrus baby sister or something for Kairi, bet that's gonna piss some people off.

also, Lol'ing at all the fanboys who nerdraged over Master Xehanorts voice not sounding EVIL enough or some crap XD

lynxgriffin.livejournal.com on May 18th, 2010 04:53 pm (UTC)

IT'S THE GREATEST NERDERY EVAR IS WHAT IT IS

Yeah, I hope they don't drop him either, 'cause he's pretty awesome as Ansem. D: I'm sure they could get by with someone else, but Christopher Lee is a little like James Earl Jones in that his voice is really tough to replace. Not certain on Terra yet, but it looks like Aqua will be played by Willa Holland (since she was the only woman mentioned in the cast). I haven't seen the stuff she's in (The OC and Gossip Girl), but just listening to an interview, yeah, I can see how she'd make a good Aqua.

They'll probably get bitties to do the bitty voices, but I don't know who. XD But lol, Disney probably would get the little siblings of their stable for voices like that.

Wait

Are people seriously raging over Nimoy? Because these people NEED TO BE PUNCHED IN THE EYES

cp-jacksparrow.livejournal.com on May 23rd, 2010 05:23 am (UTC)

Leonard Nimoy is one of the greatest TV actors of all time. That Disney was able to get him is a feat on par with Christopher Lee as DiZ, and I can't see how and why people could possibly be bitching about it.
