So, you guys think you have dark characters, huh?*

Let me tell you a little something about dark characters. Hurm.*


Graduation: Maarten sent in the photos of my signing the wall in the Zweetkamer (Sweating Room) alongside all other graduate signatures.



Human Target 1x03 "Embassy Row" Review: I was watching 1x03 last night, snarking and squeeing this new show, and figured I ought to write a review of some sort. I've already ranted over the show's blurb.

Chance races against time and crashes a black-tie affair at the Russian Embassy to find a friend's killer. As he becomes embroiled in an international arms deal, he meets his match in a beautiful female counterpart Emma Barnes (Emmanuelle Vaugier).

- SIMON MOTHERFUCKING TAM IN THE HOUSE! There was squee. Lots of squee.

- The extended fight-scenes are still much too long, allowing me to go from "Omg! Noo00ooo!" to "Adrenaline rush!" to "The choreography's interesting..." to "And it goes on...and on..." to "This is just filler, isn't it?"

- Quite a number of plot points were predictable - maybe not from very far off, but it did have me sitting there going, "He's totally going to do X, isn't he?" and "Saw that one coming..." and, in one memorable scene, cursing at the screen, "Not a hooker! Not a- Think you idiot!"

- Still don't really give a rat's ass about Chance, which isn't good, seeing as he's the main lead and does most of his scenes away from the two supporting leads. *sigh*

- I want more Winston and Guerrero scenes. Like, loads more. For one, I give (much, much) more than a rat's ass about them. Two, they're interesting. Three, they work so well together, it's hilarious.

- Guerrero says "dude" a lot. I find this amusing. (And for some reason, I want him to chat away with Hugo Hurley from Lost.) Can he have more scenes, please? He does manipulative mind games and other awesome things.

Have some Jackie Earle Haley chats about his character:
