Twitter has finally taken over my life. I knew it would, eventually but I charged up my PSP today just to check it. I hadn't even checked LJ yet. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME.
A week ago Leterrier was all but confirming Cap's appearance on AOTS. And now this. FAIL, whomever's involved. Still, I AM EXCITED FOR FRIDAY, OMG. For someone who was never really a Hulk fan in the slightest, I'm really excited. The Ultimates Bruce is so much more a pathetic Jekyll & Hyde story than the original Bruce-infused-with-gamma-rays that I think it makes for better drama. Although the logic behind the whole replicating-the-serum-while-still-battling-the-original-Hulk-effects is lost on me.
( And now I go into comic book geek mode, where I explain EVERYONE SHOULD TRY READING Y: THE LAST MAN and talk about The Surrogates and Watchmen )
I finished the Lego Indiana Jones storyline and omg, that last level in Crusade was so annoying and hard that I didn't even care about the True Adventurer status anymore. Now just to play free play (with my custom characters, bwahaha) and collect everything else! I want the guest characters, especially. Luke and R2-D2 really, but Han Solo just sounds redundant. :/
And speaking of games, I recently tried the demo of Cooking Mama 2 on the Wii's Nintendo Channel and thought it wasn't as bad as it sounded. I still can't help but find the whole idea of the game really demeaning, but it's actually somewhat addicting. My competitive nature also does not jibe well with it. It keeps giving me silver medals and a score in the 90s. WTF. And I love when it says "That came out so well!" and then gives me a bronze and a score of 50. Really? But it is semi-informative. I never knew that both beef and pork were in meat-loaf. And I never want to deal with fish in real life. The de-scaling and filleting tasks gross me out. And this is a cartoon! I also find the Japanese accent really annoying (and the PeggySims2 menu style is ghastly). Maybe that's just me being an arrogant American, but I feel that if they're going to localize it, at least get someone audible. "Terrific, even better than Mama!" should not sound like "Ter-fic! Emo butter than Mamah!"
Okay, I gave up on SPN so I'm not as mad as I was when I had my idea for a SPN video set to Christina Aguilera's "Hurt"... and then another video came out right as I was ripping the clips for it. But there's two versions of the Sammy song on YouTube now. You know what? I still have the Spencer song, so I'll just go along with that one-- without the music and I'll be happy. Psych needs the viral fandom love and I need to get back to all those stalled videos and fics I have in my WIP folders, anyway. This Psych video is oodles of fun though. UGH, FOR IT TO BE JULY!
IN OTHER TV NEWS, TOMORROW IS THE SECOND SEASON OF MY BOYS, HURRAH HURRAH. And there's an awesome picspam and quotespam here that illustrates why these characters are so awesome. READ IT.
Damn. This is ubër-long. My bad.

P.S. Someone please tell my ears to work correctly. I keep hearing music blasting from my headphones and I think a video started on some tab, only to put the headphones back on and hear nothing. Also, I just heard my dad sneeze and he's not home yet. O.o
