Update for stories · 5:46am Mar 14th, 2017

For those who have been following me you've probably noticed a lack of updates on a number of stories. I had a lot of life things happen (which I'm not going to get into) but they've died down for the most part and I'm planning on updating a number of my stories that I have in production at the moment.

Batman v Superman vs Captain America: Civil War (heavy spoilers) · 8:24am May 6th, 2016

Do not READ unless you've either seen or do not care about Spoilers.

So DC has played its hand with Batman V Superman recently. The cards they were holding were terribly lacking unfortunately. Marvel on the other hand had a Royal Flush up their sleeve with Captain America: Civil War. The level of competence and script writing prowess. In here I want to talk about the comparisons between these two movies and why one succeeded where the other failed.

Expressing Love of Fiction Through Subversion · 1:02pm May 4th, 2016

Have you ever heard of the old adage that there are no new ideas in media? Movies, books, cartoons, television shows, comic books, manga, anime; All of them are riddled with examples of borrowed ideas and overused tropes and cliches. It is too a point where you can sit down and watch a movie or a show and figure out exactly what direction it’s going to take just by reading the patterns that are being laid out. The characters and settings may change but the plot itself is relatively the same.

Finally a positive direction for dragons! · 8:10pm Apr 16th, 2016

Loving what this latest episode did to establish some more stories with Dragons. Now that Spike has an in with the Dragon Lord, He'll be able to get involved with more dragon things in the future and explore that side of his character. Plus my shipping senses were going off the CHARTS when I had saw Spike and Ember together.

They need ship fics and fan art pronto!

Aspects of the show that I want explored. · 10:39pm Apr 8th, 2016

As much as I love this show of ours, there are plenty of plot elements that this show has that I would like explored in greater detail. I've been exploring some of them in my own fanfics, but its just not the same as seeing it in all its canon glory. Here's some of the things that I want explored, hopefully in this season.
