I've come to just appreciate everything I do in art for the experience of creating it! Like little kids! I look at them and envy their sheer joy and pride at completing a scribbled crayon version of their dog on red construction paper. <3

I honestly couldn't get past the introduction. It felt really forced and cliche and I don't know, maybe I'm used to a different style. So many people like those books though so there must be something good about them!

I'm probably not going to try reading any more Erin Hunter books anytime soon, though.

really, i wouldn't be surprised if the writing /is/ forced and cliche, but i've been reading the books for five years, so i might just be used to it by now.
that aside, though, there's still a lot i can criticize. for instance, she's basically reusing the same story over and over again and recycling villains and romances. between cats.



why am i still reading them honestly ugh i just can't stop addiction is a powerful thing

Oh. Over the summer I had to read Fahrenheit 451 and Alas, Babylon, which were pretty decent books imo.
Then I read Great Expectations. The story was good but it was tedious to read so I stopped at chapter four. xD
I'm on chapter 3 of A Separate Peace though. I'm trying to finish quickly so that I can read Goliath.

Heifers In reply to kinzalol [2011-10-23 03:27:25 +0000 UTC]

We had to read A Separate Peace and then choose another from a list of books. Fahrenheit 451 was actually one of the options, but I went with The Secret Life of Bees because the title sounded interesting.

it was ok

Haha, I've never even attempted to read that book. I'm not a very patient book-reader...if the book hasn't really grabbed my attention by the fifth chapter and I don't have a particular reason to be reading it, usually it's on to the next one!

ugh a separate peace i don't even
i have extremely mixed feelings about that book, you'll have to tell me whether you like it or not

kinzalol In reply to Heifers [2011-10-23 13:31:58 +0000 UTC]

Fahrenheit 451 was really, really good, and it's not hard to read because it's super short.

Great Expectations... I actually liked the first few chapters. Dickens has a really eloquent way of describing his characters and I felt like I could really put myself in their shoes. Also, some parts were really funny. I could've read the book, had I given it more of a chance. x3

LOL I MISSED IT ON MONDAY, TOO.
But it was luckily on On Demand so I watched it there! It was a really good episode!

If you've watched it yet, did you noticed the war-ravaged BG around younger Marceline? Kinda dark for a kid's show.
And it makes me wonder if "The Great Mushroom War" had nothing to do with fungus, and more to do with nuclear weapons. (hence, mushroom-shaped cloud explosions)
Just a speculation.

Heifers In reply to nettlebeast [2011-07-28 01:42:44 +0000 UTC]

OKAY I FINALLY WATCHED IT JUST NOW HRGHH

First, let me say that I loved baby Finn. That was the most adorable thing I've ever seen.
Second, yeah, I did - and it is dark for a kid's show, but then again, that's the kind of detail kids wouldn't pay attention to.

& yesss i've always sort of entertained the idea of the mushroom wars being some kind of horrible event that wiped out human civilization, thus the land of oo is part of a post-apocalyptic world in which finn is the only human left
It's kind of a gruesome thought, and I doubt they'll ever go into too much detail on it if that's the case.

But the mushroom cloud idea is interesting. /strokes beard

little Marcy was all
"I'm hurting you because I love you..."
and what a dick Ash was!
THROUGH THE WHOLE EPISODE, EVERY TIME THEY SAID HIS NAME, I KEPT THINKING "KETCHUM"



Yeah, but that's why i love this show! It's pretty fearless with its weird, psychedelic animation, and its inclusion of dark humor/settings. Lovelovelove this show, so glad it exists!


also, it seems Marceline wasn't always a vampire? When she was younger, she was seen walking (jumping through trees, walking into a restaurant) so she was bitten, I guess, but by who?
I hope we see more of each character's story as the show progresses!

I know! I think it's possible to read deeper into the entire meaning of the show, which is another beautiful thing: you can get all philosophical if you want, but you can also just remain on the surface and laugh at the hilarious jokes.
"I don't /feel/ like I'm in Marceline's memory. -pat pat pat-"

Huh! I didn't even realize that! 8U
It was also amusing how they showed her dad eating her fries.

And they keep it consistent! C: Marceline lived in Finn and Jake's tree house at one point - which was in a previous episode - and in this episode they actually showed her moving in.
It's so cool how they do that. ;O;

hey on that note have they shown 13-year-old princess bubblegum yet in this season because i want to see more of her
