But I have the tendency to slip when the night's still wild

[misachan]

So the Yuletide tag set is up for public review, and apparently not only is someone burning to read fic about The Postman (the Kevin Costner film, possibly the most beige movie ever made*) some joker nominated the 2011 The Three Musketeers. The airship one, not the even Disney one with Kiefer Sutherland Athos-ing it up. Yeah, that was my face, too.

And then no one nominated the book!



But all my nominated fandoms got in so I'm pretty much honor bound to do this now. And while Left 4 Dead 2 didn't get in Human Target did! Whoo! (and I admit, I did snerk that no one nominated Ilsa.:) And the Thrawn trilogy's rejection is being appealed, which I'm super excited about.

(And sure, I could have nominated the book but I needed that spot to nominate movies about martial artist kangaroos. Priorities, people.)

*Tom Petty is, admittedly, pretty awesome in The Postman. I could write a story about Tom Petty. I mean, I won't, but I could.

I know it's been quiet around here, but I've been deep in the word mines the past week trying to make the polybigbang deadline. I have one finished (new Dean/Cas/Lisa!) and I'm well into the Avengers one so I'm hoping my the end of the weekend that'll be done and can put down a big chunk down on spn_reversebang. And get back to working on responses to the "Beat Cas with sticks" AU meme.:)

And Tuesday is my 9th LJversary! There will be a ~party~! Of the comment!fic meme variety, presuming I can figure out how to code those link banners!

please come to my party

So, the new Killers song, "Runaways." Someone's already made ALL the John/Mary vids to that, right? Because Jesus.

The Three Musketeers book was my phantom nom! As in, if I had only had one more space, that was so going to go in it. Oh well - all the fandoms and characters I nominated DID get in, so I'm definitely going for it this year as well! What are you going to be requesting?

I was the same way! Narrowing it down to only three nominations forces some hard choices.

I'm requesting the three I nominated: Tombstone, Into The Woods (the Sondheim musical) and Warriors of Virtue (the aforementioned kung fu kangaroo movie; it's a hokey late '90s kid's movie I fell in love with. Mostly for the villains, who are the ones I nominated anyway.)

What I'm offering is still up in the air, though. Tombstone and Human Target, definitely and if the Thrawn Trilogy does make it that goes right on the list, but I'm waiting until the final tag set goes up to pick #4. Captain Britain & MI13 is in, which is really tempting, and the approved Excalibur characters looks like my favorite run. And X-Factor's in there, too!

Yuletide is hard.
