aunt_zeldaThat's right, today is my birthday and YAHOO for that! Yesterday I celebrated with my family and had cake (well, brownies with peanut-butter ice cream and caramel sauce) and PRESENTS (Borders and amazon.com gift cards, a Batman lunchbox WITH A CAPE, and a new bag) and the day before that I went to a showing of sports planes and treated myself to actually buying Watchmen in a store and not online.
I'm glad that, as of yet, my birthday (which is always for some reason stretched out over a few days) has been going pretty well. That is, I haven't burst into tears, eaten terrible food, or had to strike the set with a bunch of volunteers whilst my fellow cast-members shirk their duties.
My Thougts on Watchmen:
DAYUM, that was hardcore/terrifying/troubling/amazing/confuzzling/fantastic/depressingly good.
I mean, what exactly are we supposed to get out of that, or FEEL going away from that? There are no clear heroes or villains, there's lots of death, gigantic choices are made by people of questionable character, a woman gets kicked out of the gang because she's a lesbian and they don't want bad press (GRRR!) The upside is that it's one of the best stories I've ever read, it's chock-full of steller flashbacks (you know what a flashback whore I am) and I LOVE how the chapters are bookended by clips and excerpts from books and letters and such.
(And, just a word of advice from the birthday-girl, NEVER read a graphic novel before you go to sleep. There are NO good 'stopping points' and for some reason there seems to be a recurring theme of psychos chopping up females and feeding them to dogs. Also not-a-big-deal-in-the-background homosexuals, though the lesbians tend to get more coverage and usually get the short end of the stick and beaten up by their girlfriend or something, which aren't exactly things to aspire to. Then again, neither are the sex-crazed, relationship-inept, episode-centric lesbians on Torchwood, so clearly we're in need of some sort of fandom revolution here.)
Anyhoodle, I feel in love with Rorschach, despite the fact that I went for more than half the book without figuring out how to pronounce his name, and, at the beginning, was a bit disturbed by the fact that his musings were making me laugh. His journal entries and clipped sentiments to criminals should NOT be funny ... but to me they are. Not in the way that Heath Ledger's Joker made me laugh, more in the way that Claude Rains (on Heroes) makes me laugh. I'm probalby not making a whole lot of sense here, but it IS late and I'm waiting for a LoM episode to load.
Then ending ... surprised me. Which is why I'm not going to talk about it, because graphic novels, to me, seem to be like Lost : you have to see it firsthand, no spoilers, on your own. Otherwise, you loose something.
I want that mutated-lynx. And 'Archie' is so awesome. (Hell, show me an airship and I'll fall at your feet, though they had me the second we saw Rorscharch eating beans out of the can in Daniel's kitchen.)
The movie worries me. It LOOKS good, but they have trouble cramming Harry Potter into a movie, so I'm nervous about people cramming something as complex, sensational, and thought-provoking into a mere MOVIE. A graphic novel seems to be the only format you can contain such a thing with. PLEASE let the movie be a three-hour deal, like LotR, PLEASE!
Anyone have any reccomendations for Batman graphic novels? I hear The Dark Knight Returns is famous/exceptional/blah blah, but what do YOU guys think? (Especially ones where the Joker is especially prevalent.)
(P.S. I am totally seeing Hamlet 2 even though it looks like one of those movies with 'stupid-humour' that I avoid like the plauge. It has Jesus, a gay men's chorus, and SHAKESPEARE SPOOFING. Mock me if you dare, once I've seen it I'll post some kind of review.)

So, I saw three plays last week, two of them on the same day, two of them Shakespearian.
The first was The Mystery of Irma Vep, a two-men-show, a sort of spoof on gothic horror/romance. Vampires, ghosts, werewolves, a groundskeeper who looked suspiciously like Igor, mummies, that kind of thing. It was hysterical, the costume-changes were zippy and wonderful and since one guy was the maid and the husband, and the other guy was the wife and the Igor and the mummy-lady, there was all kinds of slashy goodness and sporfle-moments.
The second I saw (later that day) was The Winter's Tale, which I have mixed feelings about. (The performance, not the play itself.) On the one hand, the acting was superb, the guy who played Autolycus was FANTASTIC (incidentally, the same guy who played the wife and Igor and mummy-lady earlier that day), the king made me cry, and the costuming was pretty. On the other hand, Polixenes kept forgetting his lines, there were lots of long pauses (it was a REALLY long play), the bear-scene was a bit too surreal (but really, that's a hard scene), and though Camillo (who played the maid and husband in Irma Vep) was FANTASTIC he was inexplicably holding a book in his hand when he was confronted by Polixenes and admitted he'd been ordered to poison him, which limited the use of his hands and handicapped him. As a fellow actor, it made me wince.
Still, great to see Shakespeare as always, and as I'd never seen a Romance play until then, it was very fun.
The third play I went to see was The Taming of the Shrew. Yeah, I know, I was in it until last weekend, but this was a DIFFERENT production, in which my dance-partner starred. I used to be part of that group, but most of their additudes backstage didn't sit well with me. Still, it was great to see most of them all again, and say hi before the show, and watch the play I'd spent a whole month on preformed by people who weren't me.
Yeah, it was a more junior production (my dance partner is probably one of the older guys there, he helps out a lot and was a GREAT Lucentio, but I think he's wasted at that theater, with all those preteen girls who clog up the background and murmur their lines.) The girl who played Biondello (new) was HILARIOUS and the guy who played Hortensio (new) was also funny and also played kinda ... campily gay (ya know, not insulting just ... gah, I can't explain it, you'd have to see it) like we played Hortensio in ours, but the servants weren't as kickass as ours were. They didn't juggle food or hurl it through the air or spill water on Kate or even get smacked around that much. Tranio (as Lucentio) was WONDERFUL, though, in a greenish suit that made my eyes burn, and faux-Vincentio was wonderful and my dance-partner's brother (one of the youngest members there) was Gemio and oh my GOD he was HYSTERICAL. He got at least half the laughs, mostly because of the insane way he GRINS.
I had problems with the way they handled the Kate/Petruchio thing. In our show, the actors played it like Kate and Petruchio fall in love the moment they set eyes on each other. Our Petruchio was tounge-tied and, when he finally spoke, alternatley stuttered and raced through his lines. Once he got into his groove, so to speak, watching him fondle and hug and get kicked around by Kate was fun. In every play I've been in, there is always one scene I go out of my way to watch every single preformance. In Midsummer it was the play-within-the-play. In Taming it was the first meeting of Kate and Petruchio.
In my dance-partner's group's show, watching Kate and Petruchio meet and banter wasn't fun at all. It was almost painful. Don't get me wrong, the actors were great, and the scene itself was good, but they way they did it was not. Petruchio (played by a really tall guy) manhandled Kate in the way possessive-boyfriends or cops do on TV, and their dialoge (rather witty and funny when you read it) came off as menacing and rather scary from him. Kate herself landed few hits and was practically squashed by Petruchio, clearly not infatuated or even interested, more like a mouse trying to flee a vaguely-sadistic cat who keeps tugging it back by its tail than a heroine coming up against her match in wordplay. I felt sorry for her and yearned for Kate to kick Petruchio in the nads.
By the time Kate delivered her final speech, I was no longer supressing my winces. The blocking was shoddy: Kate spoke directly to the Widow and her sister for the most part, rather than implore towards the audience or encourage Lucentio and Hortensio to be more manly. At that point I was glad it was almost over (ok, my dance-partner, his comedic brother, Biondello, and a few others made the show worth it, but the Kate and Petruchio thing disapointed me.) On 'my hand is ready, may it do him ease' Kate went down on one knee and held out her hand. Then Petruchio went down lower on his own knee, and kissed Kate's hand. I cheered with the rest of the audience, but since I'd spent the rest of the play hating Petruchio, I felt it was too little too late. Petruchio should have shown that he was joking and in love in his assides to the audience, rather than come off as a chauvinistic twat.
Still, the more Shakespeare you see, the better, and it WAS interesting to see another group preforming a play I spent four weeks working on.

Something to do with Life on Mars, I suppose, as I'm almost done with S2 (*sigh*) and Doctor/Master ... but more like 'Sam Tyler' being the Master 'lost in time and space' and the Doctor trying to get in touch with him via those whacky staticy TVs or something to that effect ...
(Vague enough? Sorry, it's late for me ...)
Wait a minute ... when was YOUR birthday?! Did I write you something? I better have ... if not, remind me when your birthday is so I can prepare a fic for penance!

And ever since someone pointed out that Rock Me Sexy Jesus is exactly like the theme from Little Shop of Horrors I've been a little put-out. But I'll still see it. If it comes to one of my theatres (and I think it will).

I mean, what exactly are we supposed to get out of that, or FEEL going away from that?
I think that's pretty much how we all walk (stagger?) away from it. And then usually a few weeks to months later, after rolling it around in the back of your head, you find yourself going back for a second reading and realizing, Wow, you missed a lot the first time, and now you're even less sure about everything except that it's one of the most complex and meaningful things you've read...
It's a comic about what superheroes might be like in the real world. You can tell it was successful because it's about as complicated as the real world is. :)
The Dark Knight Returns is hard to argue with. I read it when it first came out about ten years ago. At the time, it was a revelation. Most of us had kept to the shallow four-color end of the comics pool until then, and even those who read the indies never thought their techniques could (or would) ever be applied to old-fashioned superheroes. The Dark Knight Returns was underground comics' coming-out party onto the mainstream scene. It changed everything.
It's just...maybe it won't seem like quite as big a deal now, because this book has influenced comics so much since it was written. The Dark Knight Returns has literally changed how superhero comics are written. But this is where that all started, and it's one of the places where it's done best. It's also an iconic rendition of Batman, and Miller more than did justice to the Bat-noir, the psychological horror, and the Joker--crap, the Joker. I almost forgot. Yeah, if you like Joker stories, you need to read it.
Hamlet 2 was created by the guys who write South Park. So just be prepared. On the bright side, while it can be extremely low-brow, their humor is usually not stupid. I suspect that any Shakespearian ripoff produced by those guys is likely to be startlingly intelligent, if you can make it past the in-your-face offensiveness of it (and deliberately so, for they believe the world at large just needs to chill out).

Yes, I think so ... GAH I've missed your musings!

True ... it doesn't end all perfect and neatly wrapped, it's kinda hurled through your living-room-window tied to a rock ...

Whoo! Sounds deep! (Then again, you could make ANYTHING sound deep ... still, I'm gonna take your word on this.) YAY JOKER! *is a total Joker-fangirl since TDK*
Now I'm worried that if I pick up the book, lights will flash and epic music will play ...

South Park is evil. I will give Hamlet 2 a chance, though ...

Date: 2008-08-18 05:10 pm (UTC)BTW i am pretty sure that it is "Ross- arch" after the inkblot psychological tests.
According to what i have read about the movie it will be close to 3hrs running time and this is with "the curse of the Black Freighter" comic, and "under the hood" documentary removed, they will be avialable as seperate dvd's and as extra features /or possibly edited back in on the Watchmen DVD when released.
Have you read the original graphic novel that V for Vendetta was based off of? there were big differences from the movie, and if you liked the movie at all (or liked watchmen) i think you will love this.
Another thing I think you will love is "the Sandman" graphic novels by Neil Gaiman. I am an english major and damn near have a library of books in my home that I have read, but I have re read this series over and over again, more than anything else I have ever read. (and it gets better every time)It is thought provoking, clever, and brillantly beautiul and sad.
It is a series about family, change, and duty. It touches on gods, myths, legends, the bible, humanity, dreams, shakespere (who features in his own story and the creation of Midsummer nights dream, and the first fatefull perfomance), and the nature of stories themselves. It features Homosexuls, Lesbians, Transexuals, in an incredibly positve light, and if had my way it would be required reading for every thinking person.
Be sure to read the series if you have not yet. (another nice thing, is it comes in chapters, so you have plenty of good breaking points in a sigle book.)

Date: 2008-08-19 01:26 am (UTC)YAY for three hours! AND huzzah for Under the Hood and Black Freighter extras later on!
I keep meaning to read/watch V for Vendetta ... it's on my list.

Lalalala, not reading Watchmen spoilers. I honestly wanted to read the book before they even thought about making it into a movie, but I haven't been able to get my hands on a copy of it yet. Did you like the movie? That much I want to know.
I am lame and have only read a few Batman comics online. STFU. I will not become a comic book geek because I don't have the money or the time, and I don't need backstory to read PWPs. That's what wikipedia was created for.
