...tomorrow.

Yup, it's time once again to celebrate how many times the Earth has revolved around the sun during my life-span. Fourteen is how old I have to be to access "mature" LiveJournal entries, but other than that, it isn't really a mile-stone.

My fish died today. Her name was Lily Cay, and she was white with one blue eye and one orange eye. Now her blue eye is white. A bit saddening. I woke up to Livija crying.

So, I'm getting the last season of Angel tomorrow. This will be it for me concerning Buffy and Angel. I got the 6th and 7th seasons of Buffy on the road, and I already had the first four seasons of Angel from graduation. It's exciting, being so close to its end. (Not including any comics.)

Also:
I heartily approve of the way they're making Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. Ling Yao animated is all I could ever have hoped for.


"THE LAST AIRBENDER" RANT AHEAD:
I was thinking about The Last Airbender last night, and every thought I had about it just made me more furious. There is no rhyme or reason in what they're doing to this amazing series.

What They Have Announced They Have Done:
• Dulled down the clothing.
• Changed the colors of their eyes, skin, and hair.
• Changed the Chinese calligraphy to scribbles
• Gave it more of a 'martial-arts movie' feel than an 'epic children's story' feel.
• Made the heroes white and the background characters every ethnicity except Chinese and Japanese.
• Made everyone in the Fire Nation royal family a different ethnicity.
• Cast someone ten years older than Sokka as Sokka.
• Made an already serious children show even more serious, as to drive away the people that like the fact that it's a funny series.
• They haven't announced it, but I don't think that they hired The Track Team to do the music. The Track Team made Avatar sound like Avatar.

I expect not much will change in the second movie.

The only redeeming things I have found for this movie are that A) They included Momo, and B) They aborted the whole Jesse McCartney-Zuko idea. It's really not much, and I'm not even focusing on how offensive the line "White or any other ethnicities" is to find on a casting sheet for protagonists of this series.

Please, don't watch this film when it comes out next year.
