Agony Booth Recap

"The sheer egotism he demonstrated in Lady in the Water had finally broken me, and it’s probably not a coincidence that this was also when he stopped his endearing habit of including scenes from his childhood homemade movies as bonus features on his DVDs, along with introductions bemoaning how bad they were."

We've come so far. :/

Right, now that the tone is set, I'm jumping in. :)

Tips from the Agony Booth recap:

-Kyoshi's a kickass warrior.

-Katara's a kickass warrior.

-Yue's...very much like Arwen, really.

-Azula's scary-competent.

-Include Koizilla.

Just rewatching Plinkett's review of ROTS...

...and there was one thing that really made me laugh: the whole "Average Joe, Late For Work" gag over Anakin marching to the Jedi Temple. (You know, Funny Background Event) And his suggestion of how to improve the whole clones thing was pretty inventive (and it could have worked, actually. :). That, and him mentioning LOTR just won my undying loyalty right there. XD

Still, I think the way Coruscant was portrayed in ROTS could have worked if executed right. The idea of Anakin marching on the Jedi Temple while everyone else is going about their daily lives definitely sounds more chilling and haunting -- kind of like that Black Riders chase in broad daylight in the first Lord of the Rings movie. If I were writing the screenplay for Revenge of the Sith, I would have had it as Coruscant shutting down traffic just for safety reasons (seriously, wouldn't you do that if your city was being directly attacked?), and then a brief moment of relief after the Separatists are disbanded -- and then Coruscant being in shock after the Jedi rebel and Palpatine is forced to take power. Also focus more on Anakin's fall and Padme's thoughts...sort of like Stover did. :)

Gakked from emeriin...per usual.

- Write a list of characters and number them.
- Input the number of characters into this random number generator as the maximum and generate two numbers.
- Ramble about how the corresponding pairing/partnership would (or, indeed, wouldn't) work. Perhaps write a snippet/one-sentence fic for it if you're feeling brave.
- Repeat to your heart's content.

And it's time to go. See you later, guys. :)
