I Am Not In Need [10 Jul 2009|09:27am] [ mood | curious ] [ music | Carbon Leaf - What About Everything? ] A question for all of the current-or-former Disneyland-employees on my flist: Does anyone know if the "Get-Into-Disneyland-Free-On-Your-Birthday" thing also extends to California Adventure? As in, can you get into California Adventure free, or is it just Disneyland? Also, what do you need to do for that sort of thing...just show up with your ID? On a completely unrelated note: man, whatever happened to wtf_nature? :| Drawing: Fanart-related things Writing: Still tags o12 || destiny

Disney Quest COMPLETE [08 Jul 2009|02:41pm] [ mood | working ] [ music | The Lion King II - We Are One ] I have officially completed my Disney mission, ending it with Home on the Range! I decided not to include Chicken Little and Meet the Robinsons even though I kinda cheated with Tron and Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and not to include the Pixar movies for now. Which means the next 2D animated Disney flick I have to look forward to is Princess and the Frog! I so hope it lives up to expectations. It's definitely been interesting seeing all the movies in order and seeing how they've changed over the years! The company definitely seems to go through high points and low points...high being periods of experimentation in the medium, quality control, and building good story, and low periods being lazy or unexperimental animation and so-so story. It seems like the best points hit at the 30s, the 50s and then again in the 90s, although each of these seems to be for different reasons. Disney seems to have hit another low point pretty much after Fantasia 2000, so I wonder if it'll hit another stride as we start to go into 2010. (Pixar has been kind of filling in the gap instead, but I honestly consider Pixar its own separate entity, even though the two companies are so closely intertwined.) What I REALLY want to know is what's in development for 2D after Princess...there's Rapunzel and King of the Elves, but those are all CG-animated. :O Otherwise, OH NO GOT CAUGHT IN THE MEME NET AGAIN DUN DUUUUUN Your result for Roleplayer Test!... The Biographer Plotful, Character-Oriented, Platonic Like the Portraitist, the development of your character is the most important thing to you when you roleplay. However, you like your development and relationships to have some kind of overarching plot: you're not the type to enjoy a dressing room or any kind of roleplay where your character can't grow in at least a semi-structured manner. You enjoy exploring your character's psyche, but simple exploration isn't enough: you like to discover and then implement and use, and therefore continuity (which gives you "why"s and "how"s) is very important to you. You struggle when your character has no solid base in which to put down its roots, such as in games where there isn't enough structure or ones where the plot is continually changing.

Brrrrrrr [07 Jul 2009|10:28pm] [ mood | sleepy ] [ music | Pierrot - Upper Flower ] New Lunargyros page today! Check it out here. So my parents invited me out to see a movie with them, and we went to go see Ice Age 3. Now see, I haven't seen Ice Age 2, so I guess I missed the part where Manny got a girlfriend and Sid got some possums (YEAH POSSUMS) and Diego got...no one? Anyways, this was the third one instead, and it had DINOSAURS and some crazy weasel thing. All in all? Got quite a few laughs out of it, but it was forgettable. Diego's character seems so dumbed down from the first movie; he was basically there to be SUPPORT TIGER for everyone else. D: Probably the best part of the movie was Scrat and the ladysquirrel...all the best laughs came from them. They could probably make a movie JUST with the squirrels and everyone would go see it and it'd be hilarious. It's like Wile E. Coyote, but with saber-toothed squirrels. So bottom line: some funny, DINOSAURS YEAH, and the rest was ehh. Drawing: NEED to do more LG and others, really Writing: LOTS of tags... o17 || destiny

Chain of POSSUMS [06 Jul 2009|05:10pm] [ mood | okay ] [ music | Disney - Treasure Planet ] Man, today totally feels like Tuesday for some reason. Anyways, my family is getting back from Possum Kingdom tonight, so that means more POSSUM KINGDOM HEARTS: This time it's Possum-Riku, Possum-Namine, Possum-Xion, Possum-Axel and Possum-Kairi. 8Da Holy CRAP I need to start listing off all the stuff I need to do before Comic Con since it's coming up so soon!

Kingdom Hearts...IS POSSUMS [04 Jul 2009|01:42pm] [ mood | silly ] [ music | Crisis Core - An Ancient Poem Recited By The Waterside ] Happy Fourth, everyone! Go have yourselves some barbecue and ice cream and shiny crackly fireworks! Sadly, my class is starting up tonight so I'm probably going to be missing my local fireworks. :O But still, YAY HOLIDAAAAY \o/ Someone earlier suggested that the amazing, skunk-filled city of Possum Kingdom made them think of Possum Kingdom Hearts. And like hell was I going to pass that up: I want to draw more POSSUM KINGDOM HEARTS but I don't know who else to draw yet. 8D Drawing: This and going off to do some paintings today, I hope. o/ Writing: Mah tags o11 || destiny
