So many emotions, so little time...

Amazement: the animals in the animated kids' programme Don't Eat The Neighbours do not just have gay hints, they are actively and totally gay. The producers are taking the smeg here.
Gloom: I wish my manager didn't keep acting like she found me totally irritating to be around. I was thinking this as I left the shop this evening, and as I had nothing to read I spent the entire bus journey thinking about it as well. By the time I got home I was extremely down. It just feels like I don't fit in there and they just think I'm stupid and useless, and I hate feeling like that.
Okay, self-pitying bit over.
Fangirlishness (so it's not a proper emotion, so what?): Nik and I watched almost all of the original Akira movie with the original dubbing!

Everyone sounds stoned. That is the first thing I have to say. Everyone sounds much less awake and speaks more slowly. (Hmm, maybe it's just our speakers.)
Kaneda's voice actor is awful. Well, he sounds a lot stupider and his voice drags down at the end like a bad impression of Bill and Ted. Tetsuo's is a bit more melodramatic (Nik hates him because he claims Joshua Seth (Tai from Digimon, who does the remastered voice) is sexy.)
Yamagata and Kai are about the same *phew*
Their girlfriends are so much deeper and growlier. It is very disturbing.
I can't get over how different the dialogue is in this, though! I'd love to know what the original script was meant to be, because one of the films must have employed major artistic license. In terms of which script is better though, I think they come in about equally.
Oh, and in this dub, everyone's names are pronounced in a Western way (i.e. Kaneda, Akira) which is just plain irritating now I got used to the other pronounciations...

Okay, I'm done!

We can watch Don't Eat The Neighbours AND Akira AND The Rocky Horror Show (and can you bring Little Shop Of Horrors if poss? I miss that movie) and go completely nuts *eyes gleam with joy*

Strangely enough, I was planning to bring it with me. I had such a nice time watching it with you! Besides, I was planning on us having a silly musicals night with Rocky Horror and Little Shop. Espcially as someone wants me to write the band doing the Rocky Horror so it'll be important that you know it! :)

Ah, video nights again. Hurrah! ^_^

[tallulahgs]

Oh boy oh boy oh boy, silly musicals night! *is now manic with glee*
The band doing the Rocky Horror? *faints* Now that'd be...interesting.

It will be amusing and I look forward to it muchly.

I must write that sometime. After the exams.

(apologises about the v. late letter. I know it's taking a while but exams and stuff are taking up time. I'll get it finished, I promise)
