Jun. 15th, 2010 09:02 pm*torn between amused and excited* Adam Lambert's Glam Nation tour is coming to Tulane! Not just New Orleans, Tulane itself. During the school year, even!
...I am just kind of wondering where on Tulane. Like, we have McAlister Auditorium and Dixon Hall, so McAlister's likely, unless it's outside, which is a totally acceptable option in September.
Okay, I have passed beyond excitement into bemusement, partially because I am watching this absolutely ridiculous movie, which sucks, because I really want to watch Gangs of New York, but Dark Kingdom: The Dragon King is the Netflix movie. It is so bad; I remember watching this in high school in German class. (Hint about the quality of my German class: the movie is not in German.) Apparently Robert Pattinson is in it, which made me start laughing hysterically when I saw his name in the opening credits.
SO BAD GUYS SO BAD. Now Siegfried is fighting Fafnir! Badly! Now he's doing a Tarzan in the dragon's cave! I hope Fafnir eats Siegfried, although I know how this story ends, so sadly that won't be happening. Damn, I wish Fafnir had eaten Siegfried.
DRINK THE DRAGON'S BLOOD GET SUPERPOWERS BECOME INVINCIBLE WHERE IT TOUCHES YOU.
When the creepy voice whispers, Bathe...bathe in dragon's blood...bathe in dragon's blood... you strip naked and bathed in dragon's blood. BUT CHECK FOR ELM LEAVES FIRST. Idiot. How is he clean after bathing in dragon's blood? BATHING IN BLOOD DOES NOT MAKE YOU CLEAN.
Oh, gold hoard. Get away, Siegfried, get away! I read Voyage of the Dawn Treader, I know how this goes! Although I admit my first thought was Smaug in The Hobbit.
Dude, creepy ghosts. Oh, Siegfried, we should know better than this. And your accent sucks. ALBERICH. Gods, Siegfried, you're such an idiot.
Brunhilde is absolutely gorgeous, although I don't usually go in for icy blondes.
...this is medieval Germany? Seriously? Also, what the fuck, they're drinking water?
Aaaaand then the disc starts skipping, so ahead to the next scene! Where apparently there is a battle? For the treasure? Siegfried is such an idiot.
This movie is dark because it is set in the DARK AGES and called DARK KINGDOM.
Gods, now there's drmatic two-on-one combat in front of the army. You know this is a bad guy because he's using a mace-flail-morningstar. Oh, look, flashbacks from Siegfried's Tragic Past.
"YOU KILLED MY FATHER." Oh, look, he's a king.
You can tell the bad guys because they attack from behind!HI TELMARINES.
...why are you talking to a raven? Are you talking to your dead father (seriously? no mention of his mother WHO DIED TO SAVE HIM?) or to Brunhilde? Brunhilde, apparently.
...okay, I have given up on the commentary. What language are you speaking, Siegfried?
