Dishonor on you

Mä haluan rantata suomeks joten mä ranttaan suomeks...

GAAH
GAAAH
GAAAAH
GAAAAAH
GAAAAAAH

.... *huoh* mä en enää edes osaa valittaa kunnolla (saati kirjoittaa...)

Siis... tää The Searchin eka osa tuli keksiviikkona ja ihmiset on ihan 'up in arms' tän yhden paljastuksen takia. Ja varmasti kaikki ylireagoi. Mä en itse edes vielä ole lukenut tota sarjista, pitäis kyllä koska siinä on kaikki kullat <3 Mutta thanks to Tumblr ja spoilit, mä tiedän kaiken tärkeän... "tärkeän". Tämäkin on vaan niitä tilanteita kun vaan haluaa halata Zukoa. (*tuijottaa tuota alempaa kuvaa*)

*huoh* Mä en myöskään kovin usein puhu RJOsta täällä suomiblogin puolella mutta on mainittava että olen jo kirjoittanut tästä koko hommasta kattavan reaktioficin... ainakin päässäni. Azula on kyllä ihan väärin kirjoitettu ja mun pitää miettiä Ursa ja Iroh kunnolla läpi koska Zuko ite ei kehtaa/pysty kysymään tätä asiaa äidiltään joten Amy joutuu asiamieh- asianaiseksi. (Ja onhan puolison perheen kanssa aina hauska asioida)

... muuta RJOsta? Satine ja Obi-Wan odottaa lasta ja Ahsokalla ja Barrisilla on säröilevä ystävyys vitokauden finaalin takia. Ja Anakin syyttää itseään. Sitten tosta vasta soppa syntyy kun Mace Windu liittyy syksyllä seuraan...

There are no comic books in Finland

Excuse my 'WTF' title, but it's true. Comic books don't exist in Finland in the same way they exist in US. There are no comic book stores or crazy collectors(IMO).

Truthfully, the only comic 'book' making any success is Donald Duck -serial. It's about 50 pages per issue, and a new one comes out every Wednesday. On top of that, there are monthly pocketbooks and big hardcover collections.

To give you some scale, I might as well describe the magazine shelf in any big store: there are lots of DD-paperbacks, some manga, and then collectibles, and then kiddy magazines(that may include comics), and then magazines for teens and adults. Oh yeah, and paperback books are before the comics. Seriously. Book stores don't sell comic books, and specific stores for comics only are non-existent.

Now I don't usually say it's a problem, since I read just manga, actual books and the TCW magazine that Titan publishes. (The double-translated. It first goes to Sweden and then comes in Finland. It sucks. The last issue just reviewed Water War.)

The pic I chose for this post is actually the problem. As you can see, it's an Avengers character'dictionary', with over 200 pages. It's almost 30 euros, and I had my mom buy it for me (I'm poor : <). Total waste of money. The Star Wars book one shelf below would've been more fun, and it was cheaper.

That book isn't for Marvel Cinematic Universe, not even for Ultimates. It's for the original Marvel series. (I think it's Earth-616, feel free to correct me.) That's so outlandish here in Finland that I just read a few pages of this book and then set it aside. There are mentions to Civil War, and many other story arcs I don't have any idea of. My question is: why bring a book like this to market when no-one in the target group will be able to understand it?

Just from the Iron Man's page: there's the fact that Stark used to be the Secretary of Defence, he can access any computer in the world, was one of the founding members of SHIELD... Even his backstory is different from MCU. Plus, the pages have factoids, not any concrete information. Captain America's page kinda spoils that he(Steve) dies in the comics and Bucky takes his place, and a lot of other stuff.

As I said earlier, I'm used to there being a lot of canon material I don't have access to, but this is ridiculous. This book has no point being sold in Finland, since practically no-one will be familiar with the actual stories.

(Then what kind of comics do we have? Well, newspaper strips are the most popular, I think. Most of the actual comics are sold in kids' magazines that have all sorts of toys with them. I think some war-themes comics exist, but they are only sold in biggest stores, and even then they are nearby the kids' section. Sucks to be a Finn.)

Anakin saa turpiinsa Palpatinelta

Eipä muuta. On tullut katottua FMAta taas vaihteeksi, 44 jaksoa takana ja katon 41 vielä uusiks kun pääsen äidin luo. (Siis kyllähän sen täytyy tietää mitä mä katon XD)

Tuolla on luonnoksissa koko Obi-Wan -tarinana kommentti juonineen, mutta se on vähän keskeytynyt kun tuli internetongelmia. Sitten rupesin tosiaan katsomaan Fullmetalia ja jäi se kirjoittaminen kun kone on ollut kiinni telkkarissa jolloin kirjoittaminen on tietenkin hankalaa.

Ja on tullut huomattua että mieleistä fanficciä ei löydä sitten millään. TCW ja Nanoha ei anna kunnon ficcejä ja FMA pursuaa paskalaatua ja ylikehittnyttä teknologiaa. (Oikeasti, tietokonetomografiaa ei ollut 1910-luvulla!)

Ficeistä puheenollen, lievästi yllätyin kun FF.netissä oli suomenkielistä Nanohaficciä.

TCW jatkuu vasta ens lauantaina >.< Tänä viikonloppuna siis ei mitään uutta. Vähän sukalta vaikuttaa noi viimiset neljä jaksoa. Ventress, Grievous, Darth Maul... Missä ovat jedit ja kloonit! Niitä varten mä tätä sarjaa katon...

What? No! Yess! HELLYEAH!

My thought process during "Escape from Kavado" sounds pretty much like the title of this post.

Even I was appalled by the slave camp scenes. I avoided reading them in the comics because I simply thought Obi-Wan was being too Jedi, but here in the episode.... Just no. And to think there were kids aged 10 and less wathing this! I can't even imagine what these episodes will cause in Finland! Personally I'd rate at least this episode 12+ for the anxiety-causing scenes and overall theme.

The Clone Wars has never avoided violence, but this episode might have gone too far. Anakin killing/slaughtering Zygerrians, clones and zygerrians blowing up in the sky.... Dropping Togrutas to their deaths, still punishing everyone except Obi-Wan, just... just about everything was yucky for me.

And the preview in the end of the episode! DDDDDDDDD: I shouted "OH MY GOD" when Obi-Wan was hit and my brothel told me to shut up and quit with the "omging" DX just not fair. I can't go squee or omg over things in this house anymore. Just f*ck you.

And I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE UPCOMING EPISODES OMG!!!!! Seriously the preview was made of awesome.

Okay WTF is going on with my stories

I have that old fanfic named Crashlanding, and it's WIP. I've written about 1,5 chapters, and the first one is published on FF.net. In July. Today I opened the file and checked what I had written as the second chapter.
To be quite honest, it's not pretty. It's my typical writing with way too many injuries, stupid dialogue and other oddities. When I wrote that, I still had a plot in my mind, but now I've dropped said plotline, I could probably finish this story... but seriously. Why did I even publish it in the first place?!

SotR: HSQ broke my brain

Due to some internet issues, I watched the newest TCW episode this late. And I have to say: it broke my brain. Seriously! Now I have nothing against copying the plot from the comics, but there were again minor issues that annoyed me ><

1. I don't think Obi-Wan and Anakin have the full Jedi garb underneath the Zygerrian armor. Most of the tunics, yes, but not the topmost flappy-things(I have no idea if they have proper name)
2. GETTING CRAP PAST THE RADAR!!!!! XD Just what did Anakin whisper to the Queen?
3. Obi-Wan... I have to say I like how he's the one getting hurt now. Though Ahsoka and Anakin also got their share in this episode(Anakin stunned like that, anyone?) but Obi-Wan still wins.
4. Ahsoka's slave costume <3 so pretty. And I think the blue fits her. But not her green lightsaber ><
5. Anakin is playing Luke. Lightsaber-shooting and hand signals + eye glances! *drool* I love nods to the movies.
6. Copy-paste'd plot. I liked it, because even when I knew what would happen("Ahsoka you f'cking idiot!") it was still a bit surprising. I also haven't read the comics in a while :D
7. Lars Quell. Lars Quell. Lars Quell. The. Best. Alias. Ever. I almost cheered when I heard Anakin say it.
8. Ahsoka in the cage XD Master of patience, it seems.

>< Now that I opened the comics, I might as well comment them, too XD

Part 3:
"No offense, but who'd buy Rex?"
"There are worse deals"
Oh boy did I crack when I saw this XD Ahsoka's outfit(before she turned into a stripper) is more revealing than the one she had in the episode, but somewhat also better.
Page 4. There's an ewok in a cage.
Anakin's cape... Page 7, ILU.
Why is there a loose tooth on page 11, panel 4?
Why does Ahsoka look like she has nothing under the loose garb when they're riding the beast? Seriously, her leg's the skin color, even though it's brobasbly supposed to be white. And in one panel she appears bare-foot.
>< the infamous slave-costume. Seriously, she's 14.
They didn't beat Obi-Wan onscreen in the comic!
Part 4:
Ahsoka's visible skeleton.
Anakin appeared darker in the episode than in the comic.
Part 5:
Does Rex have a tattoo?
Lol royalties appearing even more royal.
>< Acutally, why is everyone whining about Ahsoka's costume? It's a tube top, biking shorts and a bit more.
And no one ever draws Anakin's tunics right. (Seriously: pants, long tunic and a jacket. Not that hard.)

SW.com still doesn't work so I can't check the next episode preview >< SW.com, I hate you.

I'm gonna go rot in hell

I got The Last Airbender from library. Also, I reserved(is that the right word?) all the seasons - dubbed to Finnish, of course. I have them in English on my computer.

And why did I got so suddenly interested in A:tLA? I don't know either :D I was mildly interested when I started digging in TVTropes, but here the SW-effect stuck - in reverse. You see, I almost decided not to see Angels&Demons in theatre when I heard Ewan McGregor was in it. I went anyways, after reading there would be burning involved with his character. And I read that from a serious magazine, not entertainment one. (Finland is a weird country :'D)
Anyways, when I found out Mark Hamill was voicing someone in AtLA, I was first: meh. But then, when I found out his character could shoot lighing from his hands, I was already ROLFing and desided to check the whole series XD And it was totally not a bad decicion after all. Okay, I read all the memes and Getting Crap Past the Radar-things beforehand, so I was laughing at The Drill.

I have a bad feeling that they'll have someone really young-sounding voicing Zuko in Finnish dub, because that would SO ruin my fangirling D: The dubs mostly are good/high quality, but there are some fails now and then. *coughdigimoncough* But that's then for the company to blame. The voice actors are good.

And by the way... THERE IS NO TRANSLATION FOR 'BENDING'! Damn. I have no idea what the original cover of TLA said, but the Finnish wording translates to 'have skills'... yeeah, I guessed that. -.- Sometimes Finnish works so perfectly, and other times... it does NOT. Gosh.

Though, I want so bad to hear how they did the dubbing. So I'll torture my brother this weekend. (Mind you, I'm 17 and he's 15, and he does not appreciate me watching childer's shows :D)

I'M FINALLY 17!!!!!! It feels so good to be able to say "I'm 17" and not "I'm almost 17" and not lie.

D: My Rex poster is jumping off the walls. Gotta go re-tape it so it stays.

Sleeping Anakin is cute, no matter the situation

LOL I keep seeing really weird dreams. Apparently I thought too much of TCW before going to bed. On the other hand, it's been a while since I saw Anakin in my dreams, so this was (excuse my pun) a dream come true.

I had no idea where I was in that dream, but it looked like hotel of something. Could have been inspired by AGC II: Chaos in the CityCloset, where all the characters live in a huge cube-shaped building. Anyway, I've got no idea what the dream was about, but I saw Anakin there somewhere at some point. And I had an interesting book I was reading. It basically listed few reasons why few jedis would get sick/ill/whatever. Well, I thought the book was about that, but I have no idea what Obi-Wan and Mace were doing in that book. Although, it's not that uncommon for books to change subject while reading when in dreamland. And I think I can remember what Anakin's page said... Yeah, if I remeber correctly, it said that he would get down with stress. At that point, I was like: "-_- you're not even trying" to that book, as my imagination would come up with anything. Yes, I though of that inside the dream!

Also, I'm quite sure I saw Anakin sleeping in that dream. :3 He looked cute. And he was sleeping shirtless ^^
Okay, that wasn't the point of that part :'D I got a bit stuck thinking how to say this. But anyway, Anakin's prosthetic arm was way off from what it's in ep. III. It was only from shoulder to elbow, rest of his arm was normal. And it was his left arm. Even in the dream I noticed that first part, but that second part hit me only now as I'm writing this. And now that I think, his arm looked more like Ed's automail from FMA than what his arm really is like in SW.

Yeah, I have weird dreams, don't I?

P.S. There was more about this dream, but I chose not to write it to keep this post even somewhat readable. When I start explaining stuff really deep, it usually contains few inside jokes you wouldn't get.
P.P.S. Now I want to draw Anakin in pink princess dress. >D

Beware when providing link to pics in Internet

Right now, I'm really pissed off! Because I found out just recently that one of my oldest posts had been found recently with all kinds of searches from Google! The most common term was 'perv pics', but there was also terms like 'anakin ahsoka kissing images' 'han luke slash' and stuff like that. And what pisses me off, is that that post was written in Finnish, so I don't think anyone got that those pics were not my works! I deleted that post today, to avoid further confusion. No one ever commented on them, so I never knew that they were found through Google. I'm just lucky that the original artist's of the pics didn't found out. If I someday re-publish that list, I'll provide links to the pages where I found the pics, not straight to the pics.
