Most of these things are not related
Apr. 6th, 2010 10:26 pmI haven't made any sort of general post for ages! I am generally behind in such things, for which I will blame FFXIII - which continues to be amazing, by the way - and move on.
Okay, first things first - EVERYBODY NEEDS TO GO SEE 'HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON'.
No, seriously. I am one of those animation snobs who generally looks down on Dreamworks animated films (mostly because of this, which I think sums it up pretty nicely). But How to Train Your Dragon was just amazing. It was thoroughly entertaining, and though the story was in many ways cliche, it was the good kind of cliche, the kind that makes you remember why it became cliche in the first place. I've already flailed about it to a few people in chat but I need to rec this to the wider audience. And yeah, the adults have scottish accents and the kids have american but most importantly THE DRAGON IS JUST SO CUTE OMG LOOK AT HIM. Here, take these screenshots!

( more flailing, bokurano, and the second best shirt ever )
