CONFESSION: I had a dream where I was at some convention watching David Gaider formally announce Chef Gordon Ramsey as the voice of the male Inquisitor for the next game

Me: I've got too much black in my wardrobe. Next time I'm definately going for grey. I need some more variety. I can do this!

Me: *goes shopping*

Me: *ends up adding another piece of black clothing to the infinite hole of blackness I call my wardrobe*

Me: I'm so weak. The force of the dark side is too stroooong! *ugly sobbing*

I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose…  Rapture.

here’s a tip to all the parents out there; calling your child “lazy” and “useless” and telling them that they’re “not going to get anywhere in life,” will not make them want to try any harder

Why MM:FR Was the Most Tasteful Action Movie I’ve Seen

Things that the film handled with restraint:

Rape: As countless people have said – Half of the movie’s main cast consists of sex slaves. And there’s not a single rape scene. 

Gore: The film looks exactly the type to be ultra-violent a la Quentin Tarantino. But it’s not. The one gory moment is one that you can see coming from miles away and lasts only for a second. And even then, it’s not terrible. Considering this, the movie probably could have had a PG-13 rating with minor alteration.

Sexualization: Five women wearing nothing but gauze sounds like a recipe for anything but what we got; no lingering, awkward, bodily shots. There was even a scene with a completely naked young woman with the camera focused directly on her. Guess what. The camera treated her exactly as if she were wearing flannel pajamas.

Degradation of women: Bad people get upset. We get that. Sometimes they like to swear at our heroines. And yet no one felt the need to say “bitch,” “cunt,” or “whore.” How a film managed to present about the least female-friendly society you can imagine but treated its female characters with more respect than 99% of action movies is beyond me.

Things that the film did not handle with restraint:

FLAMETHROWER GUITAR.

Gender equality: No one once says “Women are ___,” or “Men are ___.” It almost seems like outside of Immortan Joe’s freakishly utilitarian society, men and women get along just fine. Huh. Weird.

Death: Good and bad people die alike on the Fury Road; very quickly. It’s your typical action movie body count. But in a move that’s both odd and brilliant, the film spends a good amount of it’s scarce dialogue detailing what death means to the characters. For some, it’s a suicidal call to honor. For others, it’s a necessary risk to bring about more life. People die in droves. And it’s sad. Death matters.

Criticism: This is about the most critical movie of gender inequality, capitalism, and fascism I’ve ever seen without anyone ever mentioning gender inequality, capitalism or fascism.

COMPASSION: I can’t state this enough. This is a post-apocalyptic genre movie where people kill each other over sex slaves, border disputes, and cars and its message is hope and compassion. The biggest, most heroic moment of the movie is an act of healing, not an act of violence. WHOA.

I love how in Bioware games I can do things I can’t do in real life; fight dragons, travel through space, date someone. Truly amazing.

There’s two reasons to go to Iceland. The aurora borealis, and Riley Blue. One is a natural phenomenon, so beautiful it will blow your mind.  And the other is just some pretty lights in the sky.

Captain America Feralden?

The grey wardens are super soldiers of Thedas.  I also heard that his best friend Bucky has been captured by Tevinter magisters, and lost his memory.  (Art coming soon…)

My Dragon Age experience

Me: I support the mages.

Me: *dates two ex-templars and an anti-mage elf*

Never in my life did I think I would get this many followers, and frankly I’m a bit shocked! 

So, in celebration of my 4,444th follower (it’s well passed that now, but it’s still a pretty cool milestone) I’ve decided to do a giveaway. Usually I do a 60$ Steam Game giveaway but I’m ass-broke, so, I’ll do the next best thing.

RULES:

You must be following me. (new followers are welcome to participate but if you win this, I hope we’re in the same fandom or it will be awkward.)

No giveaway blogs.

Likes and reblogs both count and you can reblog multiple times but don’t piss off your followers.

When the giveaway closes, you must respond within 24 hours or another winner will be chosen in your place so please make sure your ask box is open!

Dragon Age / Mass Effect Fandoms only

I will use a randomizer to pick the winners. 

This ends on May 4, 2015 at 12:00 ATL time.

PRIZES:

3rd Place 1,000+ words in ficlets/drabbles which can be one big chunk or spread out for angst/fluff/smut.

2nd Place: 5,000+ words fic or drabbles of angst/fluff/smut.

1 First Place: 10,000+ word Fic, with one small art piece to accompany it by a willing artist that I will personally commission. You can request several ficlets or one chunk of angst/fluff/smut, up to you, but there will only be 1 piece of art to go with it.

PLEASE NOTE:

I reserve the right to refuse any prompt or pairing. There are some characters / pairings I am uncomfortable writing due to several reasons that I won’t get into here. Please have several different prompts/pairings in mind.

If you have no intentions of wanting to win, and are just boosting, please say so in your reblog so that I can see it and not pick you as the winner. I’ve had several people past giveaways who had no intentions of winning and it was a bit complicated to straighten out.

I will write smut, but I have my limits on what kind and what I am comfortable with. I reserve the right to say no. 

I needed to express for my love for this film somehow and this was it. 

I’m f ucking screaming I h aT e everything
