I was trying to...I don't know what I was trying to do, and anyway my whole conversation could have been recorded as "Yeah, I'm not into that whole thing with the unorchestrated grunting and throwing of balls. Can we talk about something else?" That was a very long sentence.

Quote:Originally posted by ChrisPV: As for kung-fu movies, have you seen Kung Fu Hustle? It's brilliant. The best analog I can give is if you put live-action Warner Brothers cartoon on screen and let them beat on each for a bit. Plus, there's an axe wielding song-and-dance number in it. Great stuff.

Quote:Originally posted by ChrisPV: Tell me about it. I'm in the middle of a series of little vignettes featuring each of the BDHs seperate from the whole. Some are set before the series, some after the film. The point is, I don't have the option of just defaulting over to another character's POV when it becomes convenient to do so. Wash just flows easily for me, but writing Zoe was, say we say, a challenge. They're posted over in the Blue Sun Room, a place where I will second Followmal's urging for you to place your own stuff. If you're interested, give it a look! "The sun offends me. Go up in your X-Wing and shoot it down." Wedge Antilles on Adumar, or me on a Monday morning. Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal, Fox!

Quote:Originally posted by NanoMoose: I'm in the middle of reading yours right now, actually. I got through the River one with only mild weeping (I love her, but she's so very broken) and am starting on the Wash one. You write him good. And me grammer go boomness. And yes, I've figured that's where the fan-stuff goes. Also, I hear impersonating an Ewok is illegal on some worlds. Any hints as to where I could hide from the Feds should that turn out to be true? Yub, yub.
Quote:Originally posted by ChrisPV: Well, there is some slow-mo/wire-fu stuff, but it's all used in service of the joke. Not like in the vast majority of films these days, where it's just supposed to be a given that everyone can walk up walls and stay airborne for hours on end. Hong Kong films generally tend to be like that. The wirework is there, but it's in the service of plot or for artistic expression. Hero and House of Flying Daggers are both excellent on that score as well. With American films, however, it's generally more of a "Lookit what we can do!" sort of thing. Annoys me no end.
