It All Begins

So have a screenshot showing our favorite teen couple right before their world goes totally screwy:



-M+J: *kissu*-
Yeah, I like you two.


Watched Part II today, which was fun. Ahh, sweet Backie goodness.
-OD: We were kind of hoping it would inspire you to write.-
I know, I've got the documents open now. I'm thinking I'll probably update "The Gift and the Curse" tomorrow, since that's a Part II story.
-OD: *grin* Sounds about right.-
-TD: Then me, I hope.-
Then you, yes. Then VampDoc again.
-VD2: I, of course, am quite well served by "Cinder-Marty."-
Good, glad to hear it.
-VD: Good thing you've been working on it pretty steadily too.-
I know. I like it. I think I've got a soft spot for fractured fairy tales of this nature.
-HD: *gringrin*-
-D: All well and good, but you do have two stories completed and awaiting posting, you know.-
This is true. My usual beta reader's taking some time off, but once she's back maybe I'll start e-mailing her again.
-DW: Would be a good idea, I think. I'm sure our Phoenix counterpart would like to have his story posted.-
Indeed. Of course, "Corpse Mask" is a little trickier. Who on my friendslist has watched either film? Anybody watch both, like me?
-TTV: *puppy dog eyes* Someone please say yes.-
Could you really resist that face?
-TD: They can if they don't know what he looks like.-
-TTV: Please imagine I'm adorable, then.-
*ruffles his hair* You ARE adorable.
-TTV: *blush*-
Anyway, Rift is still ded from October for the most part (another hiatus announced!), but the Nexus is doing good. Doc got himself a possible LOLpumpkin from a pumpkin patch.
-RPD: Possible?-
Well, you can't really tell until you carve it. It could be normal.
-RPD: Victoria, please. We all know the pumpkin's going to talk.-
You know me too well.
-Docs: *grin*-
Anyway, Clockwork's also got some threading with Metody in the birthday party thread going on, so let me attend to that. :)

I have seen The Mask but I have not yet seen Corpse Bride.

I've seen The Mask before, ages ago. Liked it okay back then.

Corpse Bride was pretty awesome. I kind of felt like it was more Danny's movie than Tim's--the vision of the afterlife as a swingin', colorful juke joint as opposed to the tight-laced, nearly-monochrome Victorian caricature of the living world was definitely in line with the "Dead Man's Party" aesthetic of vintage Oingo Boingo, and I kept hearing little musical riffs from Oingo Boingo songs in the soundtrack. Bonejangles even reminded me of Mr. Satan from Forbidden Zone.

Well son let me tell ya I'm so pleased to see you
The boys and I been expectin' to greet you
As guest of honor in the house of the dead
So relax, hurry up, and say goodbye to your head

Oh, hi-de-hi-de-ho...
