What story?

I still retain a fangirly love of Poe <3

[Nighthawk]

The Pit and the Pendulum. Critical essay.

[nathan_p]

Ah. *wince* Good story, but I thoroughly despise critical anything. Dammit AP English.

Good luck.

[Nighthawk]

Thanks. :/ And we were given the assignment ages ago, which means I had all Christmas break to do it. Of course, I had to wait until the day before school stats to even look at the assignment. Yikes.

[nathan_p]

That's my basic theory, too, but I lucked out and didn't have any assignments over break ._.

Yay Sherlock Holmes! 'Twas very good, and Robert Downey Jr. was funny. On the other hand I didn't really like Avatar, there was something about the way they portrayed humans as the devil that kind of got annoying. Literally, the theater laughed when the humans were incinerated, fell to their death, etc. but got all sad when the aliens died. The animation, however, was fantastic...

It's Dances With Wolves in space. omg space wolves

Ahem.

The aliens are portrayed as Pure and Good and our protagonist is one of them. The humans we mainly see as A Rather Amoral Scientist, a Nerd, and A Douchey Military Guy.

Therefore, we root for the aliens.

*Loves Dances With Wolves* 'Put that in yer book' will forever be a treasured phrase in my vocabulary.

I rooted for the aliens because the pterodactyl-things they rode were cool. And because the helicopter pilot was hot and she was on their side.

Edit: I just realized how shallow that sounded. Oh well.

[nathan_p]

Pssht, it's not like I'm the deepest person in the world either >.> Avatar was cliche, yes, but I still sat through it.

[Nighthawk]

I was sad when she died. :( And I want one of those things!

Must write now. Will put in review later, I hope.

I rooted for the humans, because they turned a space shuttle into a bomber plane, both of which I consider to be synonymous with awesome, I was so pissed when it got ripped up (though not quite as pissed that the ISS got nuked in Modern Warfare 2)

[Brandybuck]

Lots of things made me pissed in MW2. Mainly Shepherd killing Roach after a level I literally spent two hours beating...
