Coming soon is a novelization of the new G.I. Joe movie. It looks really, really... well, read for yourself!

"The neckline of the body armor exposed the upper part of her swelling bosom, an exposure of flesh that arrogantly dared bullets to try for her, as if she could walk blithely across the battlescape."

*snickersnorts endlessly* (Though I do have to admit, The Baroness is darned hot.)

Here's another snip for you!

-----
Heavy Duty told them: "You know the mission: Find Duke..."

"...grab the warheads," Rip said.

"And kill all the bad guys," Scarlett said.

"Roger that," Heavy D said.

Snake Eyes, of course, said nothing.

But they all knew that when it came to killing bad guys, he was the man.
-----

On the Harry Potter end of things, I watched the first half of the new movie tonight, will probably finish the rest off tomorrow. [livejournal.com profile] amanuensis1 summed up my basic feelings on things so far:

"-Am still convinced that Rickman could make a rock orgasm just with his voice."

Gah. Such a big reminder of one of the reasons why I fell in love with Snape's character! I just closed my eyes and listened to his voice. It's like a physical thing stroking your ears. Gah. *melts*

And a second HP thing! Snape/Draco is one of my least favorite pairings, but oh my god, [livejournal.com profile] littlemute might successfully win me over! Look at Draco's face in the last panel... Eeeeee, so broken! Eeee! (That's actually part two, see the previous post in her journal for part one.) I never get tired of looking at that. Snape in the first panel rocks, too.

Bored, I rolled a human character today. That The Craft Of War: Blind video strongly tempted me towards a rogue, but I figured warrior would be easier for a throw-away character.

Little did I expect to fall in love.

I'm guessing that warrior (so hard not to call it "WAR") is easier pre-10 than many other jobs? Hunter I semi-struggled and druid was an all-out chore. Warrior? Easy as pie. On top of that, quests around the human starting town are so much easier! Everything's so darned close! Both of my previous two characters were tauren, which means running 47875017 miles for every single quest. Even getting to Stormwind was a short run!

And Stormwind! My first time on WoW having a real connection with a city. Org never did anything for me. I hate Cliche Bluff Thunder Bluff. Undercity needs to be burnt to the, um, ground (underground?). Silvermoon City? Meh. But Stormwind! It's so pretty! And the statues! And everything's so white and clean and bright! And there are eee pretty horses everywhere!

Only thing I didn't like was the players. I know one day isn't enough to judge things on, but wow, the Ally side seems so much less mature (yes, the Horde is far from a mature group, but from what I saw today, Ally is a lot worse). And man, they fight so much! Every town I entered, every darned wide spot in the road, had a duel going on. I wanted to shake the whole lot of them and tell them to get along.

It's kind of very rough starting out 'alone' (my druid had 96 bag slots when he started and as much gold as he needed), but I can't get stuff across the fraction line to my human. Luckily I made 3 gold signing up for peoples' guilds. Good money for a starting player!

But seriously, wow. Warrior feels like a machine. It's a little annoying to lack a healing ability, but I kill things so fast!

I tried to get a good screenshot of him, but the sun was already going down so everything came out too dark. Tomorrow!
