I feel so productive...

Wow. I just updated my site. It now has a recs page, which hopefully will be updated more frequently than my journal was :P

While I was going through the vids I have saved in my HD, I ran across bonibaru's Inside Out, a Lex/Lionel vid. So I watched it again. And was awed. Again. So yeah, it's old, but go watch it. Again. Because it's really good :)

Also, I added a page for Goss's vid (Bad to the Bone). I feel so happy when I get things done :)

On other news, the fannish gods conspired to make this weekend high on fannish viewings (or something like that). First off, for some reason hubby decided to watch the Cartoon Network on Sunday, and it was showing the Justice League. Heh. So much better than the old version... Very cool episode. I've come to two conclusions: 1) Batman is definitely my favorite hero ever (unless you count Graphic Novels, in which case I'd go with Rorschach (Watchmen) or V (V for Vendetta). I like them bitter and slightly crazy *g*); and 2) Joker is my favorite villain. I just adore his sense of humor. Remind me what I'm doing again watching Smallville? ;)

And then, just to top things off, we flipped over to TNT and the movie they were showing was... Superman! Yup. Amazing. We couldn't have pulled it off if we'd planned for it, definitely. I hadn't watched that in *years*. And I have to say, I almost gave up, because the first hour is just so damn boring. No, really. Jor-el. Krypton. Young!Clark. *Yawn*.

But... Christopher Reeve as Clark Kent! So cool! So dorky! So like Tom Welling in many respects! And, as Superman, so sarcastic and fun! Yup, love him. Always.

"Some people can read War and Peace and come away thinking it's a simple adventure story. Others can read the ingredients on a chewing gum wrapper and unlock the secrets of the universe." -Lex Luthor, "Superman"

So, I guess that's what we do around here with meta discussions, huh? Read the ingredients on a chewing gum wrapper and try to unlock the secrets of the universe? Sounds good to me *g*

Hehehe. Just watched the season premiere again, with my husband. And really? I liked it a lot. Plot holes aside, it was pretty darn good. Hubby thought so too...

[Scene where Lionel holds Lex's hand and tells him that he loves him, or almost]
Hubby: Wow. Look at that. He's actually showing affection. I didn't think that was possible...
[Lionel then procedes to tell Lex that he's blind, and that he should have left him to die]
Hubby: Uh, I take that back...

*g*

Brazil! Yikes, yes I can imagine that it would be hard to find some comics there.

Actually, they have some pretty good comic book stores here, but they mostly sell them translated, and I much prefer the originals. No matter how good the translation is, it's never the same as the original :)

When you say you are moving back close to your brother in law does that mean you'll still be in Brazil?

Yup, I'm moving from São Paulo (our commercial "capital", Brazil's largest city) to Brasília (Brazil's actual capital). I've lived in Brazil for most of my life, except for the 2.5 years that I lived in the US (Albany, NY, to be exact). Which is where I learned to speak english :)

How exotic!

Hee :) Brazil's a pretty great place. Although I don't find it exotic per se, at least not where I live. It's pretty much your standard metropolis, complete with polution and traffic jams :P Of course, there *are* exotic places in Brazil, like the Amazon forest, which I plan on visiting someday :)

Heh...well...

In the eye of the beholder.

I live in San Jose, California. Trust me...any old street in any city in Brazil would be exotic for me. ;-)

California... Now *that's* exotic! ;)

If you ever come down here to Brazil, let me know and I'll give you a grand tour!
