grieving for alexander mcqueen keeps me up alllll night

Pre-Konoha Madara? You mean like this? (http://i45.tinypic.com/j5b9ck.jpg) Or like this? (http://i47.tinypic.com/29ayv6w.gif) XD Ah, versatility, thy name is Mad Maddie ♥ While I'm rather partial to that bitchass scythe he has in the first picture, canon has it that his weapon was actually a giant... metal fan. Being the Chinese Classic Lit fag that I am, I couldn't help but, um, associate. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Iron_Fan) I will have my princess after all! Princess Iron Fan, she subdues, uh, flaming mountains with her magic whirlwinds! Oh man, that wiki article reads to me like an AU in the making. I'm such a shithead.

The Road is one of those books that I deeply wish to thoroughly cannibalize (irony!) and have it go through my system and into my brain for all eternity. The film was good, but did not live up to my expectation. I don't blame the soundtrack, though. The source material is just impossible to approach, let alone beat. And by The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, you *clearly* meant The Slow Sponge Bathing of Brad Pitt by the Shirtless Casey Affleck. Not that I'm saying this should sway your interest in any way, but... just puttin' it out there.

The funny thing is that I tend to see the films first, then hunt down the soundtracks. Found a lot of great music this way. Seems like we're operating on opposing assembly lines.

Instead of watching Geass and inevitably pulling out all your hair from the massive trainwreck that was the second season, just watch this AMV (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbpcu3C1PQQ) that I made, using Viva La Vida. It spoils basically the entire series, ensuring that you will never feel the need to succumb to the evil clutches of this anime.

And dude, I just want to address this point from your first comment that I somehow neglected: SHISUI, SOB. I've stayed away from writing him in general because I don't think I could do it without channeling yours

DO IT. I have this crazy obsessive habit of combing through FFN (shuddup) every day in hopes that someone has written a new story about Shisui so that I can compare my characterization with how others write him. I don't want to be the sad whiny little girl who adopts a random underused side-character and then bawl at people to indulge my whims, but I am totally that girl.
