BBS TRAILER AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH AAAAAAAAAAAAH
IT IS SEVEN MINUTES LONG
LESS THAN THREE WEEKS AND WE GET ALL OF THIS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
*breathes*
I felt like drawing all the eeveelutions in a Claire Wendling style. So, I did!
Memento
While I enjoyed The Dark Knight and Inception, I think this is the movie that's made me a Christopher Nolan fan. It was engaging, made you have to think to keep up with it, and just all-around suspenseful. I must be a sucker for telling a story backwards *coughTheEleventhHourcough*, 'cause I actually really liked the fact that the story was told this way. It puts the viewer straight into Lenny's shoes...with only scant information on what has happened and why, and trying to put together the pieces with nothing but out-of-context clues. It's a very difficult way to develop characters, but in this case, it works. You can't help but feel sympathetic for Lenny, even though by the end you discover that he is psychotic and stubborn. It takes some skill to make my sympathize with a crazy character (and I don't mean crazy in terms of his condition, since I think the way people treated him with his condition was just as abhorrent as the way he treated others).
So! Great acting, great writing, great methods for explaining each scene, very intense. I'd watch this one again.
Memoirs of a Geisha
This one was pretty good. Probably not my favoritest, but the music and layouts were very pretty. It's kind of depressing by design...here you have a world wherein women are objectified as part of their profession (not that women aren't often objectified anyway, but this is a special case), and so in turn, they stop treating each other like humans, too. It becomes so severe that even a single moment of kindness becomes life-changing.
I can't help being a little bit squicked by the age difference between Chiyo and the Chairman, but I suppose in the time, culture and situation that really can't be helped. For what it was, it was bittersweet.
There's also two new Lunargyros pages, read 'em here.
Drawing: Still LG and fanart
Writing: Stuck on the RP for now
Days until BBS release: 20
