Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm going to see BABY PENGUINS this weekend!

Bouncebouncebounce.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Speaking of which, did you notice, Jessica, that they have penguins at BAM along with Depp?

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Ooh, Depp covered in baby penguins? Too much cute.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

penguins at BAM along with Depp?

I know you don't mean Johnny Depp playing with baby penguins, but that's where my mind's going anyway.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Depp covered in baby penguins?

BZT

I think my brain just shorted out.

Given Depp's association with Tim Burton, you just know that it will happen sooner or later.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

The baby penguins will get eyeliner?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Depp as the God of the Penguins! It would be deadly cute.

Steph, isn't it just amazing how well they captured that aspect? Bale did an incredible job in the role. It's had me thinking about the differences between Batman and his Robins, and how each Robin (with the exception of Tim, for reasons I'm also thinky about) has been an aspect of his personality that he's had to push away: Dick's heart, Jason's rage and willingness to perhaps take things a step further for the greater good, Steph's impulsiveness... which leads me to look at which ones have died and why and dear LORD, it's been a while since I got this thinky about something.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

A review of Fantastic Four by Dr. Doom:

Indeed, such a failure must not be permitted to reach the theaters. Doom demands that the perpetrators of Fantastic Four, along with all existing copies, be turned over to his minions for disposal as he sees fit. Defiance of my wishes would be most unwise, for there are myriad ways to bring you to your knees, O Hollywood fools. Already, I have arranged for a number of previously untouchable "celebrities" to be injected with a psychotropic drug, causing them to immolate their careers in brazen displays of public boobery. Witness their destruction and tremble, miscreants! Thus is the fate of all who do not cower before the might of Doom!
